The film doesn't have a great reputation, but it has developed a loyal cult following, and I think that's down to your acting. The Howard/Beverly relationship is the beating heart of this strange film, which is at once a family film, yet filled with nightmarish horror imagery, and peppered with adult sexual humour.
The film dances around whether Beverly and Howard are in love, and how that might play out physically. It's very tricky territory but you did a fantastic job of making their unusual relationship believable and, in its own muddled way, very sweet. It can't have been easy having an animatronic duck head as your scene partner, but you make every scene work. Well done!

Oh, she is just great. She's a cute little redhead. The film is absolutely heart-warming. It's nice to watch these great old flicks and get a good nostalgia rush through your veins. (Instead of spending your time and money on the crap they make today eccch!)

Yeh Drooch i agree, Lea Thompson was hot in the movie as Beverly as she was one of my boyhood crushes since i saw Back to the Future in theaters at age 4 and saw this one in theaters when i was 5 as it's a guilty pleasure for me, seeing her in those night-clothes really turned me on when i saw her. Howard was one lucky duck to be with her and i don't mind interspecies relationships as in the Marvel comic they are an interspecies couples and don't mind it in animation/comics/shows/movies like Regular Show where Marghet's dad is a human guy who is married to a lovely bird gal, some furry comics like Furrlough where it has different stories of anthros in love with aliens, different anthros to even humans as some are married like a cat chick married to a human guy which makes sense being mammal to mammal etc. to fanfiction stories to even Roger Rabbit where it has an animated human married to a rabbit which makes sense with the mammal to mammal thing, Cheetah and Batman in DC even on the Justice League animated series even April O'Neil and Donetello in the new Ninja Turtles series have a relationship as some humans date/marry/love aliens in Star Trek and Star Wars as well.
Hell, if Minerva Mink from Animaniacs or Cleo from Heathcliff or Lola Bunny from Space Jam existed i'd go out with any one of them in no time and have a relationship,
