Customer Reviews of Kate's Addiction
Non-thinking fun If your a fan of the genre or the cast you can do worse then watch this. Kate (kari Wuhrer) hears her only real friend Sara (Farrah Forke) is getting married, since Kate is in love with Sara this is bad news. So Kate heads off to pay her a visit - complete with gun. However being close to Sara only strenthens Kates fixation, so much so that Kate turns to flirtation, lying, even murder, in order to win Sara's love. Sure you know how the movie is going to end but considering the small budget used KA is pretty impressive.
Wuhrer Not Enough to Salvage "Addiction"
B-grade erotic thrillers usually have little to recommend them. As a general rule, they start bad, and stay bad. It is no small feat to have something commendable in one of this movies. "Kate's Addiction" has several things going for it, which is well ahead of the curve. To start with, Kari Wuhrer, who plays the title character, is a superstar waiting to happen. She is quite good throughout the movie, giving every ounce of her acting skill to this character, even though it is a textbook part. I also want to give special notice to the first scenes in this movie. These first few minutes are very good, even heartening. The opening scene of Kate watching the video of herself and her college roommate (played by Farrah Forke; not bad at all here) on graduation day (although who shot the video is a mystery), then reaching out to touch the screen, full of longing, shows Wuhrer's real potential. The next scene shows the film's potential, as Kate meets with a private investigator about the woman and the new fiancee that stands between Kate and her intended. This scene shows what could have been: a clever, sexy potboiler about obsession. Unfortunately, there's not much more imagination left in this movie. As soon as I saw Wuhrer packing a pistol into her suitcase, my heart sank. I knew where we were headed before the movie did. We're presented the standard type of activity in erotic thrillers: brutal killings and general mayhem, punctuated by sex scenes. The supposed twist here is that the sex is between two women, but that's sort of the problem, too. That's the hook for the movie, and once it's happened--in a genuinely erotic scene that is all the sexier for the expression of joy on Wuhrer's face--the movie doesn't know what to do with itself, and fades away, which is too bad, because in those all-too-brief early scenes, and in Wuhrer's electric performance, you can almost see what this movie could have been.
Not Too Good
A psychotic woman becomes dangerously jealous when her best friend begins dating a handsome man. She will stop at nothing to keep the two apart, even if it means destroying their relationship or even murdering one of them.
