I recently saw Stuart Gordon's 1985 horror flick "Re-Animator". Obviously a, ahem, certain shot of Barbara Crampton interested me in the rest of her movies, so I was pleasantly surprised to find "Jakob's Wife" in the local video store (yes, there are still neighborhood video stores).
The movie is nothing special. Crampton plays the unfulfilled wife of a minister who gets a new lease on life after a chance encounter with a mysterious being whom she calls the Master. If you're expecting lowbrow horror with comedic elements, then this movie won't disappoint (and not just because of a certain shot of Crampton). Corny but enjoyable.
