"For those who think Romero waited until Savini's NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD remake to apologize for Barbra, he actually started saying sorry in 1973 with JACK'S WIFE [retitled first as HUNGRY WIVES and then as SEASON OF THE WITCH]. In the opening dream sequence, Joan is a kept woman. Her husband walks her on a leash, and locks her in a cage... It's blunt, but it does sell the message. In her own mind, Joan is a victim through her own passivity... The film's greatest asset is Jan White's performance as Joan. She portrays her insecurities and bewilderment pitch perfectly, capturing the confusion and profound sadness. It's not a great performance, but it's realistic, and anchors the film." - Phil Fasso, Death Ensemble
