Muerte a las muñecas del calendario

I just got this movie on Netflix; I found it by looking for Tom Skerritt movies. I feel that he's an actor who should have made it bigger than he did. He did a credible job in the role. Barbara Bosson was fine as his wife, and I liked the pre-Voyager Robert Beltran as his partner (but do detectives dress like that while on duty?). I had recently seen Knight Moves, and Daniel Baldwin was extremely annoying as Skerritt's partner; Beltran's character was much better written. I've been a fan of Barbara Parkins' since Mephisto Waltz, so it was nice to see her again; she's still as gorgeous as ever. Sharon Stone is drop-dead gorgeous here. I can't recommend this movie unless you're a fan of the actors, but, if you have it, it is watchable.

This is an enjoyable light hearted, cheesy 80s flick. I had an absolutely awful day today and this movie helped me to feel better before bed; it feels more like a drama or thriller than a horror movie but it is one of those silly slashers of the era. And it's so, so, so 80s. Just look at the main character's mustache and the girl playing opposite has farrah fawcett bangs and a crazy perm at one point. The plot is not particularly exciting but it mostly makes sense. The quality is not exactly great but it's a TV movie from the 80s. It's one that I'd recommend if you're really into 80s slashers as long as you're aware this isn't a hidden gem.

While watching CALENDAR GIRL MURDERS, two things jump to mind: #1- Sharon Stone is hotter than the sunny side of Mercury! #2- This made-for-TV movie is almost as exciting as watching blisters heal!

It starts out just fine with a couple of murders within the first 20 minutes, but soon grinds to a tedious pace.

Tom Skerritt isn't bad as the cop on the case. Unfortunately, once Ms. Stone's character enters the picture, the story nosedives into soap opera / romantical country. This wouldn't be a problem if it didn't take up two-thirds of the movie! Once it gets back to the "action", it's difficult to care.

SIDE NOTE: It was humorous to read the original Trinity release DVD box claiming that this film was rated EM (Extremely Mature), which is astonishing since it contains no blood, nudity, or even a hint of adult language!...

Millionaire Richard Trainor (Robert Culp) is celebrating the fact that his new calendar featuring twelve nude woman is a huge success. However the party is ruined when Miss January is pushed off a building and later on that night Miss February is knifed to death.

If you want to see Alan Thicke as a glamor photographer, Tom Skerritt as a cop (not surprisingly) and a young Sharon Stone, this is the film for you. Skerritt (who plays the oddly-named Detective Stoner) must find out who is killing the calendar girls... and you might keep guessing until the end! The film is made or television, so it is pretty tame. No nudity (despite the plot's description) and fairly mild violence. They found ways to stab and murder women without it being too messy, and this is no more racy than the average episode of "Murder She Wrote".

This movie was on lifetime movie networks and is a clever, kinky tale of murders at a fashion shoot. check it out for sharon stone's early perfomance as a model being stalked by a psycho killer who is also offing her friends. Tom Skerrit plays the detective on the hunt for the killer before he gets to Stone. A clever whodunit, not too bad for a tv movie.
