Review of Scissors

Scissors (1991)
4/10
Stone stuck in "B" level script
26 February 2003
Sharon Stone plays a disturbed woman who is a virgin and then attacked in an elevator and meets her neighbors played by Steve Railsback as twin brothers. The last part of the film has Stone trapped in an apartment and is slowly driven insane. Definitely a "B" movie with shoddy lighting and several different story lines going on at the same time with really none of them meaning anything. They're just thrown in to try and fool us. The one thing that was impressive was the special effects showing Steve Railsback as twin brothers in the same scene. Its fairly well done. Stone does the best she can with the material thats given her but you cannot blame the director solely. Stone just wasn't that good in certain scenes and at times it becomes downright silly. Vicki Frederick from "All The Marbles" has a role and Clint Eastwoods buddy Albert Popwell (Or Powell) has a part as a cop. Stone bares her impressive breasts for no reason at all which was enough to convince me early on that this was going to be silly and contrived.
