The way Heflin plays this rake, you never think for a second that he'd be cowed by a guilty conscience. He's a defiantly charismatic brute who turns, unconvincingly, into a wet noodle.
Keith Uhlich, Time Out New York

The Prowler may be the creepiest of classic noirs.
J. Hoberman, Village Voice

This hallucinatory film noir is still, for me, Joseph Losey's best film.
Dave Kehr, Chicago Reader

A bawdy, daring story.
