This is the first movie from Brian De Palma after Carrie. It's interesting but problematic. Amy Irving is no Sissy Spacek and writer John Farris is no Stephen King. The acting is generally uninspired.
Luckily there is good stuff. John Cassavetes plays a very unpleasant bad guy, Carrie Snodgress is likable and the final 15 minutes are spectacular.
I had seen this movie before but at the time hadn't recognized a young Daryl Hannah in a small role. It's always fun to spot well known actors at the start of their career.
