"A sustained work of terror -- elegant, sensual, erotic, bloody!" -Los Angeles Times
Writer/Director Brian De Palma "maintains a fever pitch from start to finish" (Leonard Maltin) with this "steamily libidinous and extremely bloody thriller" (Newsweek)! Starring Michael Caine, Angie Dickinson and Nancy Allen (in a Golden Globe-nominated performance), this taut psycho-sexual chiller is a razor-sharp tale of passion, madness and murder that's as "scary as the devil [with] suspense to spare" (Playboy)!
Fashionable Manhattan therapist Dr. Robert Elliott (Caine) faces the most terrifying moment of his life, when a psychotic killer begins attacking the women in his life (Dickinson & Allen) - with a straight razor stolen from his office. Desperate to find the murderer before anyone else is hurt, Elliott is soon drawn into a dark and disturbing world of chilling desires. And as the doctor edges closer to the terrible truth, he finds himself lost in a provocative and deadly maze of obsession, deviance and deceit - where the most harmless erotic fantasies... can become the most deadly sexual nightmares!

very good - 4.25 out of 5 (8/27/2001)
You probably are getting as tired as I am of the endless repetition that I
have been spewing about the genius of Brian DePalma. In the last few months,
I can count seven reviews of DePalma films, and I am really starting to
sound like a broken record.
But I have to stand firm because the best is yet to come. In fact, it might
already be here. Critics point to the career of DePalma in three stages.
There was the shock stage, the Hitchcock stage and then the final stage
where he ma

Classic film,given a great release +....... - 4.75 out of 5 (2/11/2002)

As for the comment on Friday the 13th's violence being very graphic & still getting a R rating. That movie along with DTK was cut i

De Palma at his Controversial Best... - 3.75 out of 5 (9/5/2001)
Brian De Palma's Dressed to Kill was one of the first movies ever to cause controversy in the last place any filmmaker would want to receive any; the MPAA. De Palma was forced to cut a lot of material out of the film to simply avoid an X rating, which today is known as the infamous NC-17, a threat De Palma would face three years later with perhaps his most graphically violent film to date, Scarface. It infuriated De Palma in a big way, because he felt he created a very effective film, and one in
