Review of Hexed

Hexed (1993)
5/10
Broad psycho-thriller spoof
12 February 2019
Warning: Spoilers
HEXED is an extremely broad spoof of the 'psycho thriller' genre popular at the time and it offers a rare starring role for Arye Gross (perhaps best known at the time for his appearances in the TV show ELLEN). He plays a mild-mannered hotel desk clerk who falls for the charms of an alluring socialite, played by Claudia Christian as a real man-eater. Unfortunately, when her charms turn murderous, Gross finds himself on the run from the police. There's plenty of laughs on offer here alongside a number of over the top moments, and I'd say that the gags have a 50% or so success rate. Best of the lot is R. Lee Ermey, riffing on his 'southern redneck' persona.
