Artful, Beautiful and Moody
Yes the film is (as one reviewer called it) a moody piece... artfully directed and beautifully written and acted out by the cast. It is what I would call a 'quiet' thriller. By 'quiet' I mean there is not shooting, chasing, nor are there bloody scenes - just an effectively well written, well acted, well directed and well filmed movie.
Johnny Drake (Dennis Hopper) is a young sailor who meets the beautiful Mora (Linda Lawson). He falls in love with her but soon worries that she might be a real life mermaid - and not just her job as a sideshow mermaid - but a real mermaid.
The movie has it's share of thrilling moments - intense moments. This film is worth watching if you enjoy thrillers, mysteries, odd-films, artfully styled films and even mermaids.
8.5/10
