Poussée à bout

I bought this movie after reading some good feedbacks but after viewing it, I would say that it is a waste of time. The story line is average and predictable. Worst of all is the so call "Sex Scene" was so conservative and I wonder why was the movie classified under R-rated????

This film made me laugh, and it made me cry. But the only reason I cried was because I cried laughing at it. There doesn't seem to be much of a story-line; the evil Amanda (or "the blonde one" as she shall from now on be referred to) decides to bump off an annoyingly perfect all-American family - and good luck to her I say!

The soundtrack looms overpoweringly over most of the film, drowning out a lot of the dialogue, which is probably a good thing. The movie adheres to all of the basic rules ie the heroine must investigate every strange noise in the house with no lights on, wearing her most revealing underwear.

As a suspense film, this sucks. As a comedy, it's actually quite good. The way the blonde one keeps popping up all over the place, creeping out of the shadows just to proffer cups of tea is nothing short of hilarious.

It's definitely one to watch. You'll have the time of your life just making fun of it!

If you were the father of a 17-year-old boy, would YOU hire a woman who looks like Shannon Tweed as his tutor? How can those supposedly smart people be so oblivious to the obvious? I know that nobody watches these soft-core erotic "thrillers" for the plot, but give us a break! The story here is BLATANTLY stupid, and would've been resolved in about ten minutes if only Andrew Stevens had just looked at a photograph that was in front of him throughout the movie. And how about that ending? It's so abrupt that it will leave you in a state of stunned disbelief (you'll be thinking: where did the last 10 minutes go?). As for the erotic scenes, they're only average, no better or worse than those in most Tweed flicks (although they do include a campy spanking of the teenage son!) (*1/2)

"48 isn't fine. 48 isn't acceptable. 48 isn't even passing. you lied to me. You know how I feel about lying!" This is what Amanda says to Roby when she finds out her "tutoring" has not given him any knowledge of French! BIG SURPRISE!! This movie has it all- suspense, sex, adventure, sex, horror, and yes- sex. Scorned is a movie that is hard to get out of your head once you've seen it. The plot may be a bit boring- wife blames corporate man for husband's suicide and plots revenge against him and his family. She seduces each memebr of the Weston family one by one. The high school son, the man and finally his wife. I mean - come on! It's almost corny how easily Shannon Tweeds' character is able to achieve this. Over all the movie is decent but the part that stands out the most is what the actors and actresses say. Some of the best quotes from the movies are hilarious! Any way- you should see this movie!

Shannon Tweed does an excellent job of performing as a lonely housewife who blames Andrew Stevens for her husband's suicide. She then manipulates her way into the family and starts seducing them. First the son, then husband, and then the wife. This will go down as a classic soft core erotic thriller.
