Review of The Hole

The Hole (1997)
7/10
A rather entertaining "mad mother-in-law"-thriller.
21 April 2002
"Olgami" offers nothing innovative. Actually, one is able to forsee everything that is going to happen in this "mad mother-in-law"-thriller. However, the whole thing is done in a highly entertaining and rather suspenseful manner. There's the son who has an almost incestuous relationship with his caring mother. Now this son is marrying a young, beautiful girl and lives with her at his mother's house. The mother is furious and tries to kick the intruder out. Soon, a full fledged psycho war evolves between the two women.

Well, basically it's "Fatal Attraction" within the family. Everyone who enjoys a good thriller will probably like it. And the incest (although it's only hinted at - especially in a disturbing shower scene ... "open your legs") adds a little spice to the plot. Being slightly generous, I'd rate it
