Carol Kane's uniquely radiant insanity dominates this very strange, but incredibly watchable psychodrama. Unlike anything most moviegoers have ever seen.

A truly disturbing psychological thriller with no special effects or sci-fi nonsense. Just a twisted plotline & some seriously bizarre writing. Carol Kane is brilliant (as always) as a demented murderess with the deceptively cute & charming affect. Until her wires get tripped & she flips into psycho mode. Must admit, the girl/girl scenes were kinda hot (if you forget they're supposed to be sisters, lol). But this is definitely a cult-type film rather than a blockbuster.

Carol Kane wears blackface, kills an orangutang, and has sex with her sister. A little slow, but I liked it.

Oh for pity sake! Thank God I fell asleep during it. Sheesh what a load of old tripe! Not even Lee Grant or Carol Kane could do anything to rescue this dire piece of weird nonsense!Two sisters living together in a mansion with their 'pet' ape and their pseudo jungle living room. Incest, murder and lots of tribal music and make-up oh and in future could someone please turn on the effin light when yer makin such films - I couldnât see a bloody thing! The most interesting thing about this movie were my dreams after watching it, but I will never tell!

Imperfect but strikingly memorable in many ways...

Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)

'Rise of the Planet of the Apes' is a fine film, but for a more provocative, disturbing and adult examination of human/simian relations, don't miss this one-of-a-kind spellbinder.

Rated: 4/4
