Review of Pretty Poison

Anthony Perkins plays a man who has been institutionalized for setting fire to a house (he had his reasons) and who suffers from many delusions. Still, he seems affable enough and not a huge threat to society, so he's released, gets a job, and meets a high school girl played by Tuesday Weld who ends up only furthering his descent into insanity.

While Perkins is indeed wonderful, it's Weld who steals the show here as the seemingly wholesome high school girl who turns out to have quite a thirst for blood. It's well worth checking out.
