Brian De Palma’s career ranges from the awful to the awesome. Body Double fits squarely into the latter category. Smutty, garish, suspenseful, and more Hitchcock than Hitchcock, you will not be disappointed. A Bill Maher look a like (Craig Wasson) plays a down on his luck actor who gets thrown into a world of mysterious wealthy ladies in Mercedes, punkish porn stars (Melanie Griffith as Holly Body), driller killers, and Frankie Goes to Hollywood.
But what do you think?
