She's only worked in one genre as far as I'm concerned - horror. ("The
horror...the horror...")

I never watched Fatal Attraction for that very reason (it also looked like
a bag of shit on its own merits I have to say, but I wouldn't actually
know...), suspension of disbelief that MD would actually have been able to
shag her with a straight...um, face.

She's not actually that bad, just so poorly cast in that movie because
she's NOT that attractive...MD is hardly gonna be missing the good old
days when he worked with actresses of her calibre (.38 snubnose), now he's
stuck at home with frumpy old Catherine Zeta Jones...

I'm sure that the perm was totally violating the manifesto even at the
time...

And just to be fair, I have to point out that I happily watch movies with
Danny DeVito and Ron Perlman and think they're both great. But then I'm
not in the habit off shagging guys, that's my excuse at least.
