Campy?


This movie felt a bit OTT, no? I mean, it took some pretty bizarre turns. Not so much that any of the characters' actions were out of the ordinary, but the tone was like some paranoid horror film at time and the director wasn't afraid to crank it up to eleven it seemed.

I mean, I get that the modelin industry is not exactly a healthy and nurturing environment, but am I alone in finding this film kind of hysterical (and weirdly hilarious when it shoehorns in kidnapping subplots out of nowhere?), tonally?

Not campy but the kidnapping subplot was extreme, but it made you question if the character was insane. She was definitely messed up. Her photographer boyfriend even told her as much before she proved him right by appearing to almost kidnap his daughter. Or maybe she just wanted to question her...

Truth is for suckers, Johnny Boy.

Her relationship with Shane and the kidnapping subplot reminded me a lot of Fish Tank.

Yeah. Just saw this movie and I was thinking the same thing. Very similar .
