WITH FRIENDS LIKE THESE...

Cinemavixion Review

Released in 1991, "With Friends Like These..." is a Canadian anthology film helmed by directors Chris Malazdrewicz, Thomas Parkinson, and Alain Zaloum. Narrated by Norman Fell, the movie delves into the lives of three distinct characters: Alex, Kathleen, and Frank, whose seemingly ordinary existences are thrown into disarray by peculiar events. Alex and Kathleen's lives are intertwined with an antique car, Frank finds an unusual companion in his refrigerator, and Susan seeks a dating agency to find her perfect match. Despite a modest reception with an IMDb rating of 4.1/10, the film offers a unique blend of comedy and horror, exploring the darker, more unsettling aspects of friendship and relationships gone awry. Starring Rachel Bruneau, Michael Burns, Patty Carderelli, and Carolyn Davine, this anthology provides a curious glimpse into the unexpected disruptions that can befall even the most mundane lives.
