Basic Instinct (1992 Audience Choice)
The finale of our season on the awesome movie year of 1992 features our audience choice pick, Paul Verhoeven’s Basic Instinct. Directed by Paul Verhoeven from a script by Joe Eszterhas and starring Michael Douglas, Sharon Stone, Jeanne Tripplehorn and George Dzundza, Basic Instinct prevailed over two other movies about femme fatales in our 1992 audience choice poll.
