I’m watching the remake of De Palma’s Sisters at the moment. I had some hope for this one as the director, Douglas Buck, made some superb short films which are collected on a DVD called Family Portraits: A Trilogy of America. There are good, creepy, bloody stuff.
But his first feature, Sisters, man it’s not good. Dull, slow and very badly acted. Stephen Rea seems to be playing a block of wood with no personality and Chloe Sevigny looks lost (and more like a man than usual).
Avoid this one chaps and chapesses.
