Splash, Blade Runner, and Clan of the Cave Bear. So she's played a fish, a robot, and a missing link. I'm willing to bet you she was best in Clan of the Cave Bear."
Ooh yeah, she was pretty cool in
Blade Runner,
though. Did she do her own gymnastics?
No, according to IMDB they had a stunt gymnast. One scene was even done by a male gymnast when they needed a replacement in a pinch.
One of my guilty pleasures is High Spirits, which not only has Darly Hannah (as a ghost this time) but also Steve Guttenberg. I also like Steel Magnolias, but she isn't really a factor in my enjoyment of it.
I think she’s beautiful, but couldn’t we just have a picture of her in the upper corner of the screen?
BWA!
She makes a good mermaid?
I watched that movie all the time when I was little. I liked it so much. Although I thought they made a mistake in making her tail orange. I thought it should be pink, or at least green, if it couldn't be pink. Orange is so ugly.
First full frontal nudity I ever saw. I was, like, six. Mess you up.
My apologies to everyone for my being an ass, by the way.
I'm not sure it's fair to say that The Grudge is being universally panned. That's a perfectly reasonable score - mediocre, sure, not as good as The Ring got, but not all that much worse. And definitely better than, say, Surviving christmas. Plenty of (not professional critic) people I know didn't like
The Ring,
either, and the critics' score seems to reflect that it's not for everybody - people that don't scare easily or don't LIKE being scared aren't going to like the movie. Personally, it scared the bejesus out of me, and that's what I wanted out of the movie, so I loved it. If I get that out of
The Grudge
then it, too, will have done what I wanted it to do.
My personal score for The Ring? 7/10, maybe. Because, despite scaring the crap out of me, it failed to grab me enough that I have any intention of buying it, ever. It wasn't
The Shining,
you know? So I understand where the critics were coming from on that, and maybe
The Grudge
is from the same place. Which doesn't stop me from wanting to see it. Soon.

It wasn't The Shining, you know?
The Shining
is overrated. Ooh, buckets of blood. Ooh, kid on a trike. Scary.
The Shining is overrated.
I'm gonna pretend you didn't say this.
Even if you don't find it scary - which I, frankly, cannot comprehend, but I've got lots of "I first saw it in second grade and it gave me nightmares that recur to this day" history there - then it's STILL a fantastically directed, written, and acted film. With a killer score.
And Scatman Cruthers.
Not sure of the spelling on his name there.
