Boxing Helena

Warning: Wikipedia contains spoilers!

Boxing Helena was the 1993 debut feature film by Jennifer Lynch[?], daughter of David Lynch. The film stars Sherilyn Fenn[?] as the titular Helena and Julian Sands[?] as an obsessed doctor who kidnaps her, amputates her arms and legs and keeps her in a box. (Or, was it all a dream[?]?)

Critically mauled on its release for its ludicrous premise, poor script and worse acting, the film has since developed something of a cult following (largely for the same reasons). It is also remembered for the legal battle that ensued when original star Kim Basinger backed out, and was eventually charged $8,000,000 in damages.
