Review of Nadja

Nadja (1994)
2/10
Ouch! What did I just sit through?

First of all, I'm supposed to believe the exotic, beautiful daughter of Dracula immediately falls in love with THIS plain jane? (one "Galaxy Craze"). Also, what was Peter Fonda doing? (my guess from his performance, mentally cursing out his agent). Wow. The MPAA rated this movie R, and promised a real wild ride in its reasoning. I think we watched two different films. (oh yeah, they're thoroughly clueless, shrouded in mystery... never mind subjective as all get-out). One thing this vampire does I've never seen in a vampire movie (or any other movie, for that matter). Does it live up to the MPAA's billing? No, it's just gross. This movie is real amusing, only I'm not sure where it falls on the intentional/unintentional scale. I mean, the worst kind of babbling goth/hipster dialogue, coupled with Peter Fonda acting all dopey. All filmed in B&W, and the Nadja-vision with a toy! This is just the kind of pretentious claptrap that critics would love (and they did, AND David Lynch's name is associated. Slam dunk!).
