Sleazy, Not Scary
I've been a fan of the late Burt Reynolds since seeing
his hilarious 'Smokey And The Bandit' at a drivie-in as a kid in the 70's.
Out of curiosity, I watched 'The Maddening' on YouTube recently and regretted it.
This is not the Burt I grew up with or care to see. All actors do whatever roles they want but he was more of a personality and played each part the same way utilizing his charming personality.
This 'southern gothic' thriller (horror?) film displays none of his good ole boy persona, and instead, he plays a violent rapist holding a young mother and her daughter hostage at his isolated property along with his mentally ill wife played by Angie Dickinson.
I loved seeing Mia Sara (Ferris Bueller) who is fine as the captive of the deranged couple (Burt & Angie) until her husband (miraculously) stumbles across the property while our searching for his missing wife and child.
Low budget, mediocre and derivative, I wish I had watched 'Hooper' again instead!
