What Ever Happened to Baby Jane

 I think I am the last person in the world to see this movie.

I loved it.  Jane's decay being exhibited though more childlike speech and mannerisms was done wonderfully.  And there is really a sense that she could be capable of anything.  While the movie is not violent or extreme, the mind is definitely there just wondering how far she could go. 

It feels like you can sense a thread from this movie to King's MISERY. 

Thought that couldn't escape me: Jane's makeup at the beginning of the movie paired with the high contrast black and white picture couldn't make me shake the image of the evil clown in the movie THE TERRIFIER.

    Yes! That peeked my interest in watching, What ever Happened to Baby Jane. Bettie Davis played in another creepy for the time movies called, Hush.. Hush, Sweet Charlotte. Recommend watching if you liked Baby Jane.
