Cool Whip

In a Papermag interview, Lindsay Lohan resurrects an rumor dating back to 2005 or so: playing Ann-Margret's role in a Kitten With A Whip remake. Lohan met with David O. Russell last year to discuss "an existing script," though no word as to the writer. Kitten, 1964, is a juvenile-delinquency Desperate Hours featuring Ann-Margret as the titular kitten who first inadvertently, then advertently traps senator John Forsythe in his home at the mercy of her slang-slinging friends, on the way to an eventual blackmail plot.

Of trivia interest: said substantially slung slang includes a line giving name to superlative 90s indie-pop outfit Nothing Painted Blue.

Kitten With A Whip is pretty enjoyable, despite being granted the Mystery Science Theater 3000 treatment, but not on DVD in either original or MST3k forms. Remake would of course remedy this.
