Vingança por Paixão

The movie wasn't too good, but it was the first time I had ever heard the name Jezebel (I don't read the bible very often as you can tell) and it was so beautiful sounding that I'm naming my first child Jezebel (despite the derogatory meaning of the name itself), and I guess I have this movie to thank

The best part of this thing is the soundtrack - if you can call it that - a ridiculous mix of hooting owl screeches, thumbing heartbeaats, Indian flute riffs, saxaphone wails, denoting erotic action, etc etc

The production is depressingly awful - not because of the narrative, but because it's so badly, badly done - I can't blame the actors, they had nothing to work with in terms of script, absolutely zero ..

Well, that's prob enough to give you a pretty good idea of what I thought of this, lol ....

This is probably not the greatest movie, but Katherine Barrese is very good and very beautiful! This is the only film with K.B. in main role, and this is shame!

I recently watched Jezebel's Kiss (1990) on Tubi. The storyline follows a woman who arrives in a small town and begins relationships with several residents while asking questions about a woman who has been missing for a long time. As she starts uncovering strange things about the missing woman, people start dying around town. How is the woman connected to the deaths and the long-missing woman?

This film is directed by Harvey Keith (Mondo New York) and stars Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange), Katherine Barrese (Payback), Everett McGill (Twin Peaks), Meg Foster (They Live), and Meredith Baxter (Family Ties).

This movie had so much potential, with a Twin Peaks vibe, an interesting storyline, and a solid cast. However, it fell short due to one critical issue: the poor casting of the main character. Katherine Barrese's performance was flat and couldn't keep up with the rest of the cast, despite her beauty. The soundtrack was solid, but Keith also missed the mark on the delivery of the flashbacks, which felt awkward. Additionally, the ending father/son fight was strange. I did enjoy the overall twist at the end.

In conclusion, Jezebel's Kiss had all the ingredients for success but fails in execution and the casting of the crucial main character. I would score this a 5/10 and recommend seeing it once.

It's like something out of a movie, really. This (unheard of ) director comes to a small remote town (Eureka, Calif., 280 miles north of San Francisco) and makes headlines by filming "a big Hollywood production!" entirely in our area. We're so far from anything that this becomes very exciting, especially when they hire some local talent to act and work. At premiere time there is a big "opening night" at a local theater, complete with director and lots of publicity (lots by our standards). A large, excited crowd fills the film house and sits *stunned* by the horribly stupid plot that unfolds. At first we're excited by all the scenes of local beauty, and enchanted by a very pleasant soundtrack, but by the time we are halfway through, we realize we have wasted part of our lives, captive to a film turkey. We file out in silence, yes, *silence*. I heard only one person speak all the way to the parking lot a block away, offering, "well, the music was nice". The movie went straight to video and it has since become a local joke. It *does* do justice to our beautiful N.Calif. coastline but if you want that, rent "Outbreak" or even "The Lost World". They were also filmed here and went far to get the taste of Jezebel's Kiss out of our mouths!
