Fetish

I love this movie. We saw it at the NYC film festival! All I can say is we wanted more! Joan Collins and Charles Casillo are a powerfull couple that bring entrige, delight and suspense to the screen. I hope to see more from this duo. FC Perry

These four and five star reviews post here are surely frauds. This movie is clearly the pet project of the writer and lead actor, who, sadly, does both poorly. I even felt sorry for Joan Collins. The director and writer never made up their minds -- are we supposed to be impressed by the celebrity of the actress character or laugh at her? At any rate, dull, predictable, and highly amateurish, save the cinematography.

This is the kind of film that should be made - NEEDS to be made - these days, but of course isn't. I was extremely impressed by the performances of both Charles Casillo and Joan Collins in a story that is original and absolutely chilling. As a person who understands the mind of the "collector" it was at times tough to watch as it swung between intrigue and insanity. Joan Collins is refreshingly subtle in her role as the ultimate collectible while Charles Casillo is alternately unnerving and devastatingly charming. Something I found very interesting is that just when I thought I knew where the movie was going, it would take a different direction. I could actually see this as a feature and was sad when it ended - and what an end! Anyway, ultimately I would rather spend the same time watching this five times back to back than I would watching something like Avatar even once. For fans of Joan Collins alone, this is a must. The opening sequence of her applying make-up against a backdrop of her classic publicity portraits is not to be missed. A cult classic.

If you're a fan of the dark and sardonic humor and irony of the classic "Twilight Zone" series you'll absolutely love this witty and biting short, black comedy. Joan Collins plays a fading movie star who plans to use a late night talk show host as a possible ticket back to the big time. After being a guest on his show she heads back to his place with a scheme of using her still potent powers of seduction to get him to promote her back to the spotlight. This is a Joan Collins you've never seen before. She is utterly brilliant as her performance veers from a wacky, zonked out celebrity, to a cold seductress, to a vulnerable aging woman. But is any of it real or is it all a performance by her sly character? Charles Casillo is also excellent as the somewhat oddball talk show host. He gives off a very sexy, dangerous (almost Vincent Price vibe .) The chemistry between the two actors snaps, crackles and sizzles--pushing all the right buttons--as you wonder if they really have made a connection or just who is conning who. The direction is creative, the sets are spot-on bizarre---creating an eerie New York City at night. The whole movie is exquisitely designed and played. It's a little bit Roald Dahl and a little bit Creepy Tale Comic Books with a modern twist. I loved it. I can actually see it being a television series.

I just loved this movie! It should have been part of a Twilight Zone package on HBO! The story is sinister and very well acted by Joan Collins and Charles Casillo. I wish the movie was longer as well it really pulled me in and the ending really threw me for a loop! Worth watching!

Not to copy a previous reviewer but the first adjective that came to mind was "delicious". But I'll stick with my comment on Facebook: Twisted, sexy, smooth. Loved it.

Fetish was appropriately titled because I was engrossed in this movie! The cinematography, sets, makeup, clothes, music were amazing for such short! You would have thought this was a full length movie with a big studio budget. Charles Casillo did a superb job playing the TV show host and fan and Joan Collins gave a captivating performance. I was never bored as the writing was very clever and funny at the right time. The only fault I can find is that the movie wasn't longer. I can watch Joan Collins for hours especially when the script is good with strong actors.
