Saw this the first time last night. What a masterpiece. I enoyed this more than Henry: portait of a serial killer actually. i found it to be a better character study as well.

I really love this film, its hard to imagine but there is so much sympathy for the psychopathic big guy. Ive tried to get friends to watch this but they struggle to see past the lunatic killer thing when it is more than that.

I'm not a big fan of this movie. It was ok, but kind of dry. I don't know- I don't see the hype.

Brilliant. This has become one of my favorite films. Joe Spinell was a amazing actor (R.I.P) I would've like to party with that dude.

I wanna check out this film. Tell me any of you, is it scary?

Not scary as such but there are a few tense moments. The lead actor Joe Spinell puts in a fantastic performance though and the film is well worth a look. Its not a straight-forward loony killer flick.
