Director David Marmor builds a simplistic but absolutely harrowing thriller that confronts similar feminine themes. “1BR” feels so much like a movie torn out from 1979 and altered for modern times.

This sense of aesthetic contributes to the sheer claustrophobia and alienation that character Sarah experiences.
TV On DVD: Legion of Superheroes: The Complete Series [Blu-Ray]/FLCL: Progressive/Alternative: Two – Series Collection [Blu-Ray/Digital]

Even during its entire run, the best episodes were just okay.
