Wissenswertes
Years later, Sigourney Weaver would state that she was most proud of her work in this film. She worked hard to portray the mindset of an agoraphobic, and has regretted that the movie was lost in a shuffle of thrillers at the time and is not better remembered.

Patzer
(at around 1h 30 mins) When the copycat killer does the "Dahmer" crime, he dumps the decapitated body into the river. Jeffrey Dahmer would've never done this, as he kept all the bodies in his apartment for further sexual gratification, then he dismembered them and submerged them in acid, sometimes he ate parts, also he boiled the heads and kept the skulls for a sculpture he was planning to do. He killed for companion, to have a submissive partner by his side, he killed men he felt attracted to and he would've never gotten rid of a body.

Zitate
Helen Hudson: Fuck you.
Peter Foley: What?
Helen Hudson: You heard me, you little twerp. Do you think I'm afraid of you?
Peter Foley: I know you are.
Helen Hudson: I know all about you. You're just a sad, second rate, boring, impotent little copycat.
[laughter]
Peter Foley: Watch it, bitch, or I will slice that smile off your face, do you hear me?
Helen Hudson: Daryll Lee couldn't get it up either.
Peter Foley: DO YOU HEAR ME?
[Helen spits in Peter's face]
Peter Foley: Okay, I see, Helen. Nice try. You wanna know a little secret? Huh? I'm on to your trick. I won't kill you fast no matter how much you're gonna want me to.

Alternative Versionen
Italian video version tones down most of the violence; most notably, Darryl Lee Cullum is not shown slitting the policeman's throat in the prologue.

10/10

excellent thriller

This is an overlooked, intelligent, frightening thriller. It poses a sick, shrewd serial killer against a brilliant psychologist/writer/professor (Weaver) and an attractive team of cops. Weaver delivers an outstanding performance as the brilliant agorophobic (sp.?) who has been emotionally devastated by a prior run-in with a serial killer. Offers a clif's notes review of the century's major serial killers, constant tension, crisp writing and outstanding performances. In short, it is a very good, very scary movie, and you should see it it you haven't yet.

Personally, I also think Weaver looks fabulous. Brains and beauty and character. Nice combination.
