Editorial Review: Description: WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH HELEN WHOEVER SLEW AUNTIE ROO Average Rating:
 Rating: - an offbeat thrillerwhat's the matter with helen is an engaging thriller written by Henry Farrell, the man who brought us What Ever Happened to Baby Jane. Like that movie this movie is basically a character study of the relationship between two down on their luck women. It is delightfully gruesome in some places, and full of intreging twists and turns. Shelly Winters is excellent as usual, and Debbie Renalds gives a performance that might susprise those who remember her from the sugary roles she had performed eariler. ...

Rating: - JUST GREAT!!!Going along the lines of question titles like "Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?", "What's the Matter with Helen?" and "Whoever Slew Auntie Roo?" is campy, macabre delight at its very, very best. "Helen" was written by Henry Farrell who less than 10 years earlier penned the script for "Baby Jane" and "Hush, Hush Sweet Charlotte" (Bette Davis movies) and "Helen" is along that vein......set in the 1930's with two female stars at odds with one another. Debbie Reynolds is great in the film, but Winters is simply ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
