good, twisted fun that lessened the pain of my own childhood.   on August 8, 2005 - 3:48 PM PDT   of Mommie Dearest (1981) 1 out of 4 members found this review helpful   you *must* watch this film or i will beat you with a wire hanger. and don't let me catch you making out with some guy at that fancy private school i shipped you off to. oh, while i'm busy yelling at you--go fix a drink for my male companion for the evening, will you? there's a good girl. now say "i love you, mommie dearest". sick sick sick. loved it.
