I watched this as part of the Netflix instant movie. It was ... interesting. I'm only moderately interested in the horror film/television genre, but I appreciate Landis' work so decided to check this out.
One has to accept a great deal of fantasy to accept the premise of this ... a deer who turns into a beautiful woman and attacks men. The woman was beautiful, but I think I laughed more than shook with horror at the site of the beautiful woman with deer legs.
All in all, not bad, but perhaps more comic than horrific.
