Trivia
Director James Glickenhaus made his son audition for the part of the second lead just like any other actor. He purposely left his son's name off the audition tape when he showed the footage to Scott Glenn. Out of all the tapes, Glenn said he liked Glickenhaus' son's audition the best. When he was told that it was the director's son, Glenn refused to believe it.

Quotes

Jesse Broderick: Yeah.
Stephen Broderick: Well, Grandpa taught me that and some day you'll teach your kid that.

A mini-Slaughter of the Lambs

A better-than-many serial killer movie. I liked it well enough to see it twice on cable and even to recommend it. I found it dark and brooding. The acting was more than acceptable and, although the genius of the child was, perhaps, not completely credulous, it also wasn't totally unbelievable. The build up to the finale was well planned and the last fifteen minutes kept me on the edge of my seat.
