Body of Evidence Movie (1993) | SO BAD IT'S GOOD| First Time Watching | Reaction | Madonna Erotica

[@bananaboydc5431]

WHAT?!! YOU WATCHED THE MOVIE?! One of those "it's so bad, it's entertaining" movies. We used to crack up watching - the bad script, the deadpan line delivery, the sassy judge. It's definitely a camp classic.😂

[@NocturneSoul]

Yes, you're my girl, thank you. I thought I was the only one who liked this movie. I personally love it, it's actually my favorite Madonna movie along with Dangerous Game. I thought it was very good and Madonna was brilliant in it. The character had layers, a mystery and a malignant side that Madonna knew how o portray very well. Her evil face is phenomenal. I truly think she did a great job. I mean, compare this role with Susan, with Breathless Mahoney and with Nikki from Who's That Girl. It's amazing that those 3 characters were played by the same actress, she completely transformed herself for each role. I never understood why this movie got so much hate. I mean, the critics I get it, they were coming from the SEX book and they ready to trash Madonna even if she was giving an Oscar worthy dramatic performance. But the fans, I don't know why they don't like it. I love it. It's a serious drama-crime movie, well done, with a character that not many actresses could play like Madonna did. This movie and Dangerous Game are to me Madonna's best movies.

[@EmpressReacts]

😂yeah this movie definitely had some bad acting at times. But it was so entertaining. And yes Madonna played this part even though that hole finger thing I could have gone without seeing the rest of my life 😂

[@EthansTarot]

This movie walked, so Fifty Shades of Grey could run 😂

[@steven-yu3tu]

Madonna’s best acting is in the 1993 movie Dangerous Game with Harvey Keitel. I kind of hated the movie but her dramatic scenes make you wonder if the problem is not her acting but her ability to choose good movies. She’s superb in it.Very dark movie.

[@Marc-zi5cq]

She is very good in it. It is a very very dark, sometimes hard to watch movie though.

[@EmpressReacts]

Interesting - maybe I should watch that too?

[@Lammert73]

@@EmpressReactsi also think she was at her best at Dangerous Game. Some scenes are so raw and tragic it almost feels like she isn’t acting but re-lived what has happened to her in real life. It is hard to watch but very convincing at the same time. This Art house movie itself is complicated because it’s a movie within a movie. I think you should watch it but probably don’t have to make a reaction video. You will see Madonna like you never see her before!! I was so impressed and still am. But it’s probably the least popular movie Madonna ever made.

[@EmpressReacts]

My friends and i used the "that's what i do...i f***" quote ALL the time 🤣 One thing you can say about a Madonna movie: her character is ALWAYS gonna be the best dressed one! And this was no exception. The beret, the trench coat, the pearls, the white silk pajamas. Serving Dietrich/Garbo retro chic.

Nah Frank was never given hot 😂.,idk something about his teeth 😂

[@bobwise1977]

I actually enjoyed this film. It was hampered by the fact basic instinct came before (and Sharon stone and Madonna looked very similar, with a similar air of confidence about them) and the fact this movie will be forever tied up with the sex book and the Erotica album. A I can see why critics would hate the film, but I think it's good for what it is and Madonna plays the part well. It's crazy to think that just a short time after, Madonna would go on to star in Evita and would shock the critics' more than she ever could have during her 'sex' overload era.

[@EmpressReacts]

Yeah she did play the part well! I’ve never seen basic instinct before so I can’t compare the two

[@hoxtondean9855]

If I'm not mistaken, Rebecca didn't die in the first draft of the script, when M signed up to it. Also, i noticed M tends to choose creative outputs that has at least a mention of homosexuality. It had done a lot to further the visibility and later on, acceptability of non-heterosexual liaisons, relationships and complexities / nuances.

[@EmpressReacts]

Agree with the latter half of your statement and interesting, so in an alternate universe Rebecca did get away 😂

[@tapanim6576]

Thank you for reacting to this movie. 😎👍

[@EmpressReacts]

My pleasure!!

[@BenSellers8022]

Me and my friend always laugh about her seeing this movie with her mom!! Talk about hilarious. I thought Madonna was really good in the courtroom scenes, especially when she was on the stand. It's so funny you're going to go from this to Evita😂 I think she got such a shocking reaction to this film because people were not used to seeing a "pop star" so completely exposed, showing ALMOST EVERYTHING. This on top of the reaction with the Sex book really got the public thinking she was a complete nympho freak show. I was always such a big fan of Madonna because her career was so entertaining and changing so drastically over the years. I feel like she truly has something for everyone.

[@EmpressReacts]

I mean the girl still had to be Dita cause she went all the way there 😂. I’m convinced most of them scenes were “real” 😂. And I feel like Janet lowkey wanted to do this which is how we got nipplegate later on 😂😂😂. Even today it would be shocking to see Taylor swift or Cowgirl Carter do this. And what is crazy I honestly can’t believe I was shocked, I mean this was soooo on brand for Madonna 😂😂. And yikes I couldn’t imagine seeing this with my mom 🫣😂. I’d slick be trying to take notes…belt tie his arms to the bed post ✅😂

Wow this was unexpected! Happy New Year, Empress! Surprise!🎉🎈🎊. Can you tell that Madonna filmed her Bad Girl video while she was making this? I saw this in the theater, had to take an adult, so I saw this with my Dad and a friend, which was awkward!

[@EmpressReacts]

Happy New Years‼️ Hope you enjoyed the surprise 😎. Omg I’m cringing from the second hand embarrassment of seeing this as a kid with parents 😂😂😂those bow chicka wow wow scenes were explicitly explicit 😂

[@dalee72]

I think that she made this movie almost a year before this movie and the song Bad Girl came out. She made this movie during her making her book Sex in early 92. She was either about to or in the middle of making her movie Dangerous Game when she made her Bad Girl music video.

[@ScotLight]

@@dalee72 According to Wikipedia, Body of Evidence premiered in mid January of 92, around the same time Madonna started filming the Bad Girl video. So technically, they weren't made at the same time, but she was still promoting the movie at that time and she definitely brought a little Rebecca Carlson into her character for the Bad Girl video. Personally I think that Madonna would have, at the time, liked to have contributed some music to the soundtrack for 'Body' but the director didn't want to go that direction, and Bad Girl video was partly Madonna's way of doing it "my way." 😂 Looking back, it's probably a good thing Madonna's music doesn't have to be associated with that movie. 😂

[@royg9080]

I think I may have seen this movie once when it was released but the only thing I remember is the broken glass scene 🤣🤣🤣 This followed Justify My Love, Erotica Album and the S*x Book so I was basically tiring of that phase of Madonna’s career and ready for something bold and new which she eventually did of course with Something to Remember, Evita then Ray Of Light. I remember thinking at the time this movie came out that it was a bad knock-off of the movie Basic Instinct with Sharon Stone and Michael Douglas. Not even sure if the plots of these two movies are similar but they both certainly contained shocking scenes.

[@EmpressReacts]

Oh! So that’s why Basic Instinct is considered a classic?! She was doing these type of teams 😂😂 even by today’s standards still explicit especially the scene you remember 😂😂🫣.

[@dalee72]

Don't forget the I'll Remember single and Bedtime Stories album which I think were bold too in my opinion.

[@sirex02]

Soo cringe even for all us Madonna fans. To go from this to Evita, Empress damn 😂..she really a whole new woman with the acting and the vocals in 1996 lol. I prefer Dangerous Game.

[@hoxtondean9855]

One Madonna film i could not watch, not that it's awful, but her acting was so convincing it hurts me to watch her character's plotline - it's a film called Dangerous Game. I think after Body of Evidence, before Evita?

[@Marc-zi5cq]

yes thats the one. She was great in it but it is not an easy to watch movie.

[@EmpressReacts]

😂yeah she played this part

[@WCD199317]

This movie was not well received when it's came out. I didn't watch this movie since it's wasn't my genre of my movies i like dramatic, animated movie. For me i prefer the period 1996-1999, who not only for her ''Evita'' movie, but also for my favorite Madonna album ''Ray of Light'', since this album was her comeback and was a influencal album for music industry.

[@lamusiclover2264]

This movie is truly for camp connesseurs, just so bad it's entertaining. Acting is not Madonna's forte (except for Evita perhaps) but she's much better at making music and performing concerts. As a huge fan since she first appeared, I tried to watch her movies, but I just couldn't make it through most of them. They were just bad. "Desperately Seeking Susan" was cute but she was being herself.

[@EmpressReacts]

I definitely feel like she was being an element in herself in this movie 😂

[@todddepue681]

@lamusiclover2264 i dont disagree with the "playing herself" in DSS. But I do think it can be dismissive to claim that that's "easy" or "anyone could do it"

[@lamusiclover2264]

@todddepue681 I didn't say that. When you play yourself, Then pretty much only you can do that unless you try to be an impersonator or something.

[@daniellaplume3840]

This really now makes me think about an amateur film she starred in during the early New York days still a natural brunette, A Certain Sacfrice. Body of Evidence was then and is now my least favorite Madonna movies. She's good, but every other actor, and the dialogue, sucks. One of my favorite Madonna roles in the movies is Shanghai Surprise, her scenes are great sublime, but it's actually Sean Penn's worst acting jobs which still says a lot because he is an amazing talented and acvomplished actor. (Side note, At Close Range, as a movie, is a great stand alone film with Sean Penn and with Christopher Walken, and the theme song having been Live to Tell by Madonna. She was at the time married to Penn.)

[@EmpressReacts]

😂Madonna did have the best lines in the movie and as I mentioned during the reaction her performance was so madonna

[@dalee72]

I disagree about Madonna's acting in Shanghai Surprise. She was decent but not great. Empress there also the experimental egg film from her high school days and the experimental film called An Artificial Light made in 80 or 81 during her time with her band Emmy and then Gotham Productions. React to them in addition to A Certain Sacrifice. And react to her cameo role in Vision Quest.

[@pensiveczar2239]

This movie is absolutely terrible. It's a wannabe _Basic Instinct,_ but ultimately wound up being the sleazy sister of _Shanghai Surprise._ The movie got pulled from theaters after only a few weeks and, like all box office flops, was dumped to home video within a few months of its release. I rented it from the video store the same year and probably fast forwarded through most of it. I don't know what kind of headspace Madonna was in back in 1992 when she started this era, but it wasn't a good one.
