This is often referred to as "the lost Carpenter film", and many of you have probably not even heard of this film. Well now that it have finally been released to DVD, I advice all of you that are either John Carpenter or thriller fans to go out and by or rent this immediately. This is a high quality thriller that is packed with Carpenter great ability to create chills and paranoia. This movie may be ahead of it's time as I've noticed these kinda movies got very popular during the 90's. If you like this you'll probably like movies as "Phonebooth" and such. This is definitely the best thriller of the 70's and has a noticeable Alfred Hitchcock feel to it.
I must admit this is far from John Carpenters best movie, but it is far from bad. This was movie the movie he directed right before his biggest success film of all time "Halloween", and if I'm not wrong it was because of this film, that he was chosen specifically to direct it.
I give this film a 9/10.
