I'm intrigued by that stylistic envelope: simultaneously hypnotic and enervating, meditative and empty.
Pat Graham, Chicago Reader

One of the most impressive American thrillers of the late '80s.
Geoff Andrew, Time Out

The movie drives along with such intensity for much of the time that you can just let it work on your senses without worrying about whether it makes sense.
Walter Goodman, New York Times

An unpleasantly gripping thriller that rubs one's nose in a sick criminal mentality for two hours.
