Bad Manners ★★ 1998 (R)

It's a weekend in hell for houseguests and hosts as they play not-so-adult games of truth-or-dare. Based on Gilman's play “Ghost in the Machine.” 88m/C VHS, DVD . David Strathairn, Bonnie Bedelia, Saul Rubinek, Caroleen Feeney, Julie Harris; D: Jonathan Kaufer; W: David Gilman; C: Denis Maloney; M: Ira Newborn.
