Description

Cue the green & red lighting and the KNB effects because we are talking about the absolutely *wild* 1993 film, Doppelganger.

Starring 17 year old emancipated minor Drew Barrymore, writer/director Avi Nesher's curious oddity is "DePalma meets Argento in the guise of a Lifetime film". Filled with gay extras and capital-A acting from the supporting cast, Doppelganger is one bizarre creative decision after another from beginning to (absolutely gonzo) end. Go in cold if you can!

Plus: underage nudity; Drew's troubled relationship with mother Jaid; gay Breakfast at Tiffany's;  ties to 1991's Popcorn; and Leslie Hope's rapid-fire screwball comedy dialogue.
