I agree with the previous review entirely.
This is a film in the thriller tradition which separates the Alfred Hitchcocks from the pulp-makers. Anthony Hopkins is absolutely at the top of his form, being truly creepy rather than over-the-top vile (i.e., Hannibal).
At minimum I think the film should be regarded as a cult classic, if not a regular classic.
A very under-appreciated film, which should be available on DVD -- especially considering the ahem not-always-superior material that the industry has already made available!
Hollywood -- please give us a well-done DVD of this wonderful title!
