Follia!

A mentally unstable pregnant woman murders an intruder and goes berserk in her apartment. This movie plays out like a poor man's redux of "Repulsion" or "Images." It lacks both of those films' subtleties and expertise behind the camera. That isn't to say it is completely without merit. The set consists mostly of a small apartment and this creates an effective feeling of claustrophobia. Veronica Hart is rather fantastic. She gives a better performance than I ever would have expected and anchors this movie. The supporting cast is also very good. It's a highly entertaining and icky movie, and pretty impressive considering the lead cast and director primarily worked in porno.

Compulsion rip-off about a young woman who is left alone in her apartment. An intruder breaks in and tries to kill her, but she manages to defend herself and kill the intruder. However, after killing the intruder she starts to have weird visions and starts to see things that are not there. And with each passing day she grows more and more violent. Cheaply made film with a mostly porno cast playing it straight is far better then anyone would expect. It is decently made and acted and has its far share of twists and turns, but ultimately the extremely low budget & lack of originality hampers it.

Rated R; Violence, Nudity, Sexual Situations, and Profanity.

I was not expecting what I had seen in this film. This movie starts out that there is a girl that is pregant and has trouble with her rich family members taunting her and ridiculing her for her mental problems. The lady comes home to her apartment and there is a man there that beats her up and she is left there to fend for herself. She kills the man and hides him under the sofa in her apartment and from this point on... she does not leave her apartment. This is when things get weird.... she soon finds herself hallucinating, seeing people that aren't there and having flashbacks of her fathers death, her half-sisters taunting and her mothers nagging. The mind games are interesting to watch and one wanders if people really can see things this way. The lady has lost the baby and therefore pretends to be pregant throughout the rest of the movie fooling everyone about the miscarrage and the hallucinations. This movie is worth watching and I give it at least a 7.

Movie has a nice idea, but the lack of bigger budget is obvious. Veronica Hart is playing the main character and she is trying her best, but that doesn't mean anything when movie quickly becomes too boring to watch. User "Ithseldy1" has a nice review if you are interested in the plot, but the problem of the movie isn't the plot itself. It's the way it presented. There were some nice ideas, but the lack of budget really hurt the movie and it seems like you are watching scenes that were just slapped together. A lot of things could have been done better and more effectively and this would be a lot better movie. There is also a lot of overreacting. All in all, I have to give "Deranged" a 5.5/10. It has some interesting ideas, but never manages to pull them of in a right way. I was glad when the movie finished. I don't recommend it. Only thing redeeming in the movie is the scene which acts as a spoof of the wedding and you could make memes from this one.

If your like me and are a fan of old 80's horror movies, then you will really appreciate watching this movie. When I usually watch movies of this time and genre my expectations are low, because I'm just looking for something to laugh at. But trust me, you won't be laughing at this movie. It's certainly frightening and completely, Deranged!
