Let's be realistic.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Butterfly is a low quality film, the script and acting are quite poor, but it is watchable for its dissimilarity and setting.Funny to me that it's labelled a crime/drama, seems they didn't want to label it anything else. The ending is perplexing, Keach's character pleads guilty of incest and commits to going to prison for 10 years when he isn't even her father, to free her of any punishment and to continue to be something. She then says she wasn't forced, which in turn causes Jess to say that Katy isn't his daughter. So he is willing to do 10 years for nothing and she was willing to receive the punishment for her actions to defend him, but not interested in staying with him. Absurd! and all still very wrong. Orson Welles was amusing as the judge.

I give this a graceful 8/10 because I 've watched so many crap films in my life that got 10/10 from all the morons at IMDb. This is a film that deals with incest in a crass way. But how does the rest of society deal with incest when at the very least about 1/70 girls are abused by members of their family in private? Not well at all, actually worse than in a crass way. So how do we expect a film about incest as a western to be? As freud said, it's the ultimate taboo. Pea is wonderful here, Orson is drinking his .. off and it shows, all in all a great movie not to be missed, but it will be, because it's not even out on DVD.

Featuring an outstanding Orson Welles in his last performance on camera, this is an interesting story with a very good twist in the end. Rex Reed loved this film when it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, you have to give it a chance, and you'll see one of the sexiest bathtub scenes ever put on film!

Once again, as I write this, I gotta tell ya, I saw this on the "Z" Channel in Los Angeles in the early 80's. I had three emotions while seeing this..one was, "This is messed up" then laughter, and one more was: "Pia Zadora isn't THAT bad of an actress."You see, it WAS the 80's. Pia had an on screen "something" that with the right vehicle could have given her a decent film career. Leading Lady? No way. The second or third important female role? You betcha. Such as "the wicked sister" or "the backstabbing girl friend" roles, with the type of stuff that was coming out then. She could have been a "cheap rent" Jane Seymour type in films playing those rolls. But she got this one...and it wasn't that great. The story was all over the place, the sexual tension was laughable and...very confusing at times. This film is bad, but top 200 bad, not top 50 bad.The gosh-awful script didn't help ANYONE in this film. It was bad. There is a bit of "camp" film quality running through this film at points, not enough to make it a "good-camp" film to redeem it. A lot of misguided areas here, a hodgepodge of a story and a lot of wasted talent.Thank goodness for all involved, there was a paycheck waiting for them at the end.
