Nothing Beats a Cigar Smoking Suit Wearing Monkey, May 10 2003
How can anyone not enjoy a movie that has monkeys that wear clothing and smoke cigars? Mind you these monkeys are not animatronics of computer graphics...but real trained monkeys! This movie is basically a psychological thriller about a girl trapped in a relationship (and a house)by someone who is controlling and jealous. But what makes this one different from all the other sob stories is this time the abuser is a monkey! This movie has some excellent redeeming points: - The trained monkeys do an excellent job of creeping you out - The story is enjoyable - The acting is good - There are some clever death scenes - Elizabeth Shue is naked (briefly) The people that should watch this movie are anyone who likes horror/thriller movies, anyone who likes monkeys, or both. I highly reccommend it!

Funny and well done suspense and thrill..., Jan 3 2003
This review is from: Link (Widescreen) (DVD)
This movie is not very famous but is a very well manufactured thriller. Miss Shue is very sexy and desirable, Terence Stamp is not the worst actor I have seen on screen. If you like Hitch's "Birds" you will like this pleasant movie. By the way the music is composed by Jerry Goldsmith and has never been released on CD (as far as I know).

Very Fun and Thrilling Suspenser., Jan 4 2002
This review is from: Link (Widescreen) (DVD)
This 1986 Horror Suspense thriller stars Elizabeth Shue and Terrence Stamp ( Star of the Superman movies). It's about a Woman who wants to spend a month in a Mansion with a professor and to study two Chimpanzees with a Elderly Butler Orangutan named " Link". But one of them proves to be aggresive and wants them all dead, but one of them has to escape the wraith of " Link". It's one of my Guilty-Pleasures all thanks to Anchor Bay who brings alot of Great Horror and Sci-fi movies including some Good Guilty Pleasure movies from the 80's, and this one is like a cross between " Monkey Shines" and " Psycho".
