Plot
Two ageing sisters live together in a decaying Hollywood mansion. Baby Jane Hudson was a famous child star, now an alcoholic and jealous of her sister Blanche, a once-glamorous actress now confined to a wheelchair after an accident. Jane's cruelty becomes more and more terrifying. Bette Davis and Joan Crawford star.
Sinekatalog’s take
A grand guignol melodrama that gave two fading stars their best late roles and started a genre of 'hag horror'. Davis's grotesque make-up and the tension between the two stars both on and off screen are part of the fun.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
