Twisted (2004)

October 7, 2026 · 1 h 58 min

Show notes

Our second-last entry in "Thanks for the Judds" is 2004's Twisted, directed by 1978's Invasion of the Body Snatchers' Philip Kaufman!

This wannabe Noir/Erotic Thriller was written by female screenwriter Sarah Thorp, and is weirdly judgey and misogynistic when it comes to sex and sexuality.

Plus: a queer-coded Camyrn Manheim; red herrings for every male character; a too-obvious villain; and the return of "Merry Christmas Daddy"!!!
