Not a widely revered film, but I remember going to see this several times during the course of its run because I was so impressed by both the ample doses of mood, gore, and eroticism. I was also a huge fan of Ben Cross, who starred in one of the first films I was ever taken to the theater to see, "Chariots of Fire." In fact, the cast is very solid, also featuring Ned Beatty, Hal Holbrook, and Trevor Howard. Not sure why this film has never found more of an audience, but it left a strong impact on me and is one of those movies that made the year 1988 such a strong one for horror.
