The Kent M. Beeson of Western Civilization

Cassandra (1987, Colin Eggleston)

Hope this is good, since it’s from the director of the well-regarded The Long Weekend. (Er, well-regarded by Kim Newman at least, who recently defended The Happening, so uh, grain of salt.)  The one time I got a chance to look at this while it was taping, I saw two women in a kitchen having a discussion, and damn if one of them didn’t look like a dude in drag.  So either I just insulted an actress, or whoops, big spoiler, sorry.  (Considering that the tag line on the box is “Cassandra can see the future. You may not want to!”, which makes me think of Tiresias, maybe it’s the latter.)  Also, from the other room, I could hear a couple scary/shocking moments, which sounded like a cat screeching plus the airy hiss of water running through pipes when the neighbor downstairs flushes his toilet. I don’t think that’s a spoiler.
