Blu-Ray Review: Brittany Murphy Deserved Better Send-Off Than ‘Abandoned’
Submitted by BrianTT on August 24, 2010 - 10:05amCHICAGO – I wonder how the movie history books will remember Brittany Murphy, who died suddenly at the end of 2009. When she went, she had a few films in some stage of post-production and one, the thriller “Abandoned,” makes its way to Blu-ray and DVD this week. The film works about as well as your average straight-to-DVD thriller but distinguishes itself a bit due to Murphy’s underrated acting ability, but this actress deserved a more fitting final note.
