I haven't seen Poison Ivy 1, but I've seen Poison Ivy 2: Lily starring Alyssa Milano which I loved!

And Rose McGowan is great in Devil in the Flesh. :D

Definately Poison Ivy, because in that movie it wasn't a sick incestual relationship. Also Barrymore's character wasn't a 14 year old child, which would've been way wrong. I'm thinking she was around 17, which makes it okay to watch. Also, Barrymore looked pretty good in that movie (if I'm remembering clearly).

Wicked was majorly f'd up, I almost couldn't stand watching it. I just saw it on tv, so I'm assuming they cut a lot out that would've made it unbearable, but I don't know, and I'm never watching it again.

Poison Ivy, definately. Wicked turned my stomach. Atleast Drew Barrymore was trying to seduce someone elses father. Julia Stiles liked her own. That kind of stuff doesn't make for good entertainment. It makes me want to throw up.

Poison Ivy - Reason being that it's a sexy thriller, some parts were funny, great cast(love drew and Sara), good music(I love the theme song and Sylvie's song), good quotes, could relate to the character Sylvie, and most of all this is one of my all time favorite movies..plus you gotta love the early 90's!

I actually like both movies. I give it for both 7/10, but i prefer Poison Ivy. Its kinda more atmospheric.
