Poison Ivy

About This Movie

Poison Ivy, directed by Katt Shea, has this sultry, dangerous vibe that really sets it apart. The pacing feels just right, drawing you into the tension between the two female leads. Drew Barrymore plays Ivy, a character who slips effortlessly into the lives of this wealthy family, and you can't help but feel the underlying manipulation. Her performance is like a slow burn, and the atmosphere is thick with unease. It's a blend of drama and thriller that explores themes of obsession and betrayal, with some practical effects that give it a gritty edge. The film's tone is almost hypnotic, making it a unique addition to the genre and quite memorable in its own way.
