Kelly Van Ryan and Suzie Toller in Wild Things (1998)

Columbia Pictures

Kelly (Denise Richards, above right) and Suzie (Neve Campbell, above left) play up their supposed innocence to set up an intricate, very twisty scam in this can’t-look-away modern noir in which nothing is as it seems.

Both leads are excellent, and the seediness of the whole affair makes you feel like you’re seeing the inner workings of something you shouldn’t.

There are many elements of Wild Things that would probably make it a non-starter for modern critics, but it has an undeniable atmosphere and slow-burn propulsion that are impossible to resist. And if you find the whole thing kind of exploitative, well, at least Kevin Bacon’s totally unnecessary shower makes it equal opportunity.
