Synopsis: A police officer witnesses a
man trying to murder a young lady. He, of course, tries to do the right
thing and ends up shooting the attacking man and saving the young lady.
This young lady however is not “normal”. She,
Jenifer (Carrie Fleming) is disfigured and cannot speak but she has an
insatiable lust. The police officer, Frank Spivey (Steven Weber)
becomes obsessed with Jenifer and starts down the road of chaotic
destructive insanity.
Thoughts: Maybe it is me but Dario Argento can do no wrong. I believe him to be one of the top horror directors of all time and Jenifer just adds to my reasons why. It is well executed and paced well for it only being an hour long. Also, I have been a fan of Steven Weber since his version of John Torrance in The Shining. Not one minute was wasted in watching this episode. Questions or comments about Jenifer? Contact us!
