May (2002)
Sick, twisted (and slow moving) "Frankenstein" clone
21 February 2004
A reclusive young woman named May (Angela Bettis) with a troubled childhood and a doll as her only friend decides to search for someone to call a friend. She takes up with a filmmaker (Jeremy Sisto), but the relationship is short lived after he realizes that she's too strange for his liking. She then hooks up with a lesbian colleague (Anna Faris) and gets blown off as well. With each rejection, May snaps and goes on a murder spree. She even tries to make a friend of her own. with various body parts.

Bettis ("Girl, Interrupted") is over the top, but is not enough to overcome uninteresting story. This sick, twisted and slow moving "Frankenstein" clone fails to build any suspense. My evaluation: * out of ****.
