andresrueda A few years ago, I rated this a 9. But now, as time passes by, I give this a 10. Not only it brings back memories, but makes me laugh, like I did (a few) many years ago.Kathleen Turner's work in here is unique, and very impressive, The score is also very very good and Poledouris manages to keep you watching it with plenty of engagement.I was introduced to the fine music of Barry Manilow with this movie, and I'm very thankful for that.

Dalbert Pringle Meet Beverly Sutphin. Beverly is the absolute perfect, little suburban housewife and mother.In her immaculately perfect, little suburban home, Beverly just loves to cook, clean and dust her little heart out - All to please her perfectly wonderful husband, Eugene, and her 2 perfectly adorable children, Chip and Misty.But all is not what it seems in this picture perfectness. No. There's one teeny-weeny, little problem here - You see, even though she does a good job to hide it, Beverly Sutphin is a serial killer - Vicious, vengeful, with a mean-streak in her about a mile wide. And if you ever-ever do anything to make anyone in her perfect, little family feel even slightly bad, then you're dead meat on a stick, baby - Sure enough.Serial Mom (in its warped and twisted, little way) is a demented, over-the-top social satire that skewers the media for turning killers into celebrities and turns a one-note joke into a savage romp down good, ol' "Slasher Lane" that is definitely not suited for everyone's tastes.

xxxloroxxxx Uncreative, absurd plot, poorly shot, ridiculous acting and, above all, tremendously unfunny! I'm an easy going person and, still, this movie was a torture to watch. I would actually have stopped watching it after 15 or 20 minutes but, since reviews had been kind of okay, I kept at it hoping the movie would improve. Unfortunately it only got worse with every passing minute. And please don't think I "simply didn't get it". I fully understood the supposed satire Waters was trying to produce. It simply didn't work. Watching this film was a complete waste of my time, except for the fact that it will keep me away from any other Waters movies.

blackismylove Can we safely say that if John Waters' name wasn't plaster all over this thing, it wouldn't have gotten half as many good reviews as it did. I feel as if people like his movies BECAUSE they're so terrible. It's not the subject matter that is a turn off to me, it's that John Waters doesn't know how to write. Good grief, can we take an unbiased look at the film and point out how God awful the dialogue is? Who the hell says "You bring me such peace" during sex? The characters in crappy movies like this one. The plot is so contrived. How did she know her victim would stop running long enough for her to drop an AC on him. Everything just happens to fit into place for the main character. There are so many things that are just awkwardly unrealistic. Of course, if you're being chased by a murderous woman, you're OBVIOUSLY gonna wanna try to hide in a venue that for some strange reason is having band play at 3pm on a Sunday afternoon.Id say that since the 20th anniversary of Serial Mom is coming up, we should all celebrate by pretending this turd was never pushed out.
