Roommates are unpredictable. You can have your best friend share an apartment and watch the relationship implode. You sublease a condo with a stranger and get along perfectly well. There is no way to predict if you’ll want to set the lease on fire and run back to your parents. And there’s no way to complete predict how crazy a person is until you share a bathroom. But you don’t want to pay all the rent. Barbet Schroeder’s Single White Female is about the time Bridget Fonda thought she found a sane response to her classified ad for a roommate. Jennifer Jason Leigh seems normal, but things get uncomfortable over time. Now Single White Female is coming to Blu-ray with bonus features. Here’s the press release from Scream Factory:

“One climax after another after another … a kind of mad artistic zeal to their passionate duel … both Fonda and Leigh pull out all the stops …”
