MASTERS OF HORROR: JENIFER

Creepy and not just because it shares my name!
PLOT
Frank Spivey sees a man with a knife chasing a woman as he sits in his car with his police officer partner. The man warns him, but Frank doesn’t listen and shoots him dead. She launches herself into his arms and he does the manly once over to notice she has a great body, but when she looks at him he realizes that her face is scarred horribly and she’s got huge eyes. His wife tries to console him with some good old fashioned sex. Things are going fine until he flashes back to the other girl and tries to have angry anal sex with his wife. He finds out the girl’s name is Jenifer and since he can’t stop thinking about her, he brings her back to his house. He dreams about screwing her, but of course she has a beautiful face in his fantasies and the next morning she shows up naked in his bedroom. His wife and his son both think she’s creepy, but he just can’t seem to get her out of his head or forget about her…
TRIVIA
Based on a comic book story by Bruce Jones and Berni Wrightson from 1974.
Directed by Dario Argento of the way too long to list here resume.
Aired fourth during the first season of “Masters of Horror”.
THOUGHTS
This episode from the “Masters of Horror” series is completely disgusting, but what else would you expect from good old Dario? In fact, I forgot just how gross it was! The only thing I really remembered about it was the blow job scene where Jenifer gives Frank one in his car. This time around I couldn’t believe how disgusting some of the stuff was. There’s a scene where she licks his hand like a dog, with her mangled teeth and bleeding lips and I even shuddered a little bit. Plus it has Stephen Webber and I’m discovering that my crush on him isn’t quite over yet. I also like the ending and how it shows the cycle of Jenifer and how she works. Jenifer is actually a fairly disgusting little 50 minutes.









I saw this streaming on Netflix last year. Your review is exactly how I feel about this movie. It wasn’t scary, it was just gross! One of those movies that makes you want to take a shower afterwards.
That’s it exactly! It made me feel dirty and not in the good dirty way.
I can STILL picture some of those scenes in my mind, just thinking about it…unlike most of the new movies, which I forget in 2 days
