Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMatt Dillon was actually James Dearden's third choice to play the lead role. Originally Dearden wanted River Phoenix to play Jonathan, but Phoenix didn't relate to the material saying he couldn't play someone so evil. Then Dearden approached Kiefer Sutherland who turned down the offer due to scheduling conflicts. Finally Dillon got the role and Dearden was so impressed with his performance that he later said Dillon should've been his first choice all along.
- GoofsWhen Ellen discovers her sister's lighter among Jonathan's souvenirs, it lights on the first attempt. It is a fuel-burning lighter, which, after extended storage, would not have worked at all, the fuel having long since evaporated.

Featured review
For Matt Dillon fans only
Inferior remake of the 1956 classic. Matt Dillion was still very handsome when this was made and the real reason to watch. He is effective as the sociopat, and would have been better with a talented and attractive leading lady. Sean Young is just really, really bad. If you dislike her, this plays as an unintentional comedy. A nice touch is Matt lighting a cigarette after he pushes her off the roof.
Now if Matt was teamed with Diane Lane again, this could have been an effective and sexy thriller. BTW, well to do women do not buy box hair color at the drugstore they have professionals color it. Hair as dark as Young's would have to be bleached first anyway. It is a two step process.
