Ambulance-Chasing Exploitation At Its Worst
|
| It's hard to tell what's more appalling, that people would so eagerly cash in on a horrific murder, or that they would do such a rank-ametuer job of it. The producers rushed this film into production shortly after Cunanan's death, filming it in 22 days for $5 million. Based on the finished product, it looks like they spent $10 on the screenplay, $90 on the props, $900 on videotape, and $4,999,000 on acting lessons for Shane Perdue. I don't know how Perdue could be cast in a high-school talent show, let alone a motion picture. An embarrassed Franco Nero plays Gianni Versace by averting his eyes and sighing his lines, as though hoping no one recognizes him. Playing a fictional FBI agent leading the investigation, Steven Bauer just goes through the motions with "where's my paycheck?" restlessness. He would have been convincing if he were playing a lawyer for Enron. Nothing else works, either. The script provides less insight than a National Enquirer article, the the score could be described as disco elevator music. There is not one scene, performance, or technical aspect of this film that's worth watching. This isn't even good opportunism. |
