Bruce Willis and Jane March star in this erotic thriller
about a crazed killer.
SEX/NUDITY 8 - There are two extended sex scenes in which there is partial
female frontal nudity, and full nudity of both male and female from behind. A woman
discusses her sexual desires. Several scenes of passionate kissing and fondling.
Implications of oral sex. Two women kiss briefly. Discussion of sadomasochism. Several
other scenes where a woman is shown partially nude from front and rear.
VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - A woman is shown putting a gun in her mouth. A woman jumps
out a window in a very tall building, and the camera lingers on her falling, and then is
shown from the vantage point of the ground when she lands. The bloody aftermath is also
shown. A man is stabbed 30 times and falls onto a shard of glass. We see and hear almost
every blow, and see him covered with blood. Another man bleeds to death: we see him bound
and hanging upside down. A rattle snake lunges at a man. There is a graphic description of
the murders of a woman and young child. Discussion of a 12-year-old boy committing
suicide. One character is shown with her very bloody hands nailed to a chair. A fight with
a nail gun results in a couple of people being shot and pinned to walls. (It's all quite
graphic).
PROFANITY 8 - Nearly 50 F-words, as well as an assortment of scatological
and anatomical terms, and harsh name calling. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - Suicide, mental disorders, psychotherapy.
MESSAGE - Forgive yourself.

A CAVEAT: We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and some of our early standards were not as stringent as they are now. We therefore need to revisit many older reviews, especially those written prior to 1998 or so; please keep this in mind if you're consulting a review from that period. While we plan to revisit and correct older reviews our resources are limited and it is a slow, time-consuming process. |
