Rachel Weisz is terrific and terrifying as a pair of twins — one good, one evil — in a remake of David Cronenberg ‘Dead Ringers.”
Rachel Weisz doubles down with two chilling and unforgettable performances in Amazon Prime’s limited series “Dead Ringers,” which serves up a bold vision of a twisted classic.
But executive producer and director Sean Durkin has accomplished just that for Amazon Prime with a limited series of six truly horrifying stand-alone episodes. He and other directors — including the incredible Karyn Kusama — and a team of screenwriters have even improved on the original. Their “Dead Ringers” chooses smartly in the departures and asides they make from the original premise — one established in the 1977 novel “Twins.
Rachel Weisz delivers not one but two Emmy-worthy performances as the dangerously co-dependent Mantles. Beverly is the more stable, ethically principled sister, but still has some screws loose, while Elliot is the drugged-out wild card, a mad scientist intent on unethical research and achieving the unimaginable.
