Drew Barrymore was just 17 – seventeen, one seven – when she seduced a 58-year-old Tom Skerritt for the sake of the 1992 thriller Poison Ivy. Add to that a dead dog, a drunk dad, and a drugged Cheryl Ladd, and Poison Ivy was perhaps too much movie for commonfolk to handle. The film bombed at the box office, but was a bit hit on video, spawning two sequels. But now, decades later, were audiences right to avoid this film the first time around? Is this flick’s “Lolita Meets Fatal Attraction” gimmick too gross to be good? Or, are there campy wonders to behold beneath its fake tattoos? The Old Roommates go out on a limb and discuss it all through their middle-aged lens. Listen to this. Old Roommates can be reached via email at [email protected].
