Roman Polanski Directs "Repulsion" with Catherine Deneuve
tags:Roman Polanski's thriller about a sexually repressed young woman who knocks off all her perspective boyfriends. It is heavily influenced by "Psycho," and in some ways it almost matches the original. As always, Catherine Deneuve is exquisite and unforgettable in the lead.

This movie is total genius. You never know whether she's crazy or not. Rather than releasing tension by making us jump and letting our adrenaline pump, it holds in tension until the buildup is so unbearable you want to stop watching. I like the transition of the rabbit and potatoes being slowly eaten by bugs as Carol goes insane. When I finished watching, the walls cracked real loud and I screamed bloody murder.
