This week we pull out SOMETHING WILD! The wildly inventive and entertaining comic nightmare from former Roger Corman prodigy Jonathan Demme. This screwball odyssey is a ride to remember. Jeff Daniels plays clean-cut New York bond trader Charlie Driggs, who accepts a ride home from a strange but attractive lower-class woman named Lulu (Melanie Griffith). The sexy Louise Brooks lookalike doesnât take him home, but shanghais him for a bizarre road trip to Virginia that includes kinky bondage sex, destruction of property, and robbery. Things get stranger when Lulu tells Charlie that her real name is Audrey and takes him home to meet her mother, asking him to pose as her husband. The charade continues until her high-school reunion, where the road trip (and the entire film) takes a sharp U-turn into psycho-thriller territory. Audreyâs dangerously psychotic ex-con husband, Ray Sinclair (Ray Liotta), shows up. What had been a liberating fling for Charlie turns into a bloody and vicious battle for survival⦠Weâll tell ya what we got out of it, plus our Top 3 âChance Encountersâ in movies.
