Vague Visages

Lauren Hutton’s Leigh ranks quite easily among the more thrilling female protagonists of the 1970s. And Carpenter’s script affords her a wicked sense of humor and gleeful resourcefulness.

Carpenter's 'Someone's Watching Me!' isn't just good for a 온라인카지노추천 movie. It's a good movie, period.

Rated: 3.5/5

Overall this is a standard "made for 온라인카지노추천" movie, albeit with a few visual flourishes from John Carpenter. What sets it apart is Adrienne Barbeau playing an amazing queer woman in the 70s. What a character!

Rated: 3.5/5

Film Frenzy

Like Michael Mann with The Jericho Mile, it ably demonstrated that Carpenter was someone too skilled to only be confined to boob-tube fodder.

Rated: 3/4

the work of a true master of horror within the confines of the television medium. And it's got Carpenter's visual eye behind it, not to mention some genuine star power in lead Lauren Hutton

Surprisingly good for a tv movie, but a bit too underwhelming. The story is not very well developed, and the scenes are a bit repetitive . How many time will a stalker call you and how many times will you pick up?

I have to say I really enjoyed this criminally underseen John Carpenter (Halloween '78') gem. Made the same year Halloween exploded at the box office this 온라인카지노추천 movie featured the gorgeous and charasmatic Lauren Hutton as a single young woman who gets a new job and place in the big bad city. Unfortunately for her someone has noticed. He begins to stalk her by calling her frequently in very creepy ways and than things start to become physical. It's easy to write it off as just a generic thriller but there's alot too love here. First of all the screenplay which is also by John Carpenter is really fantastic. It's an almost perfect reflection of the time and the harassment women had to endure. It's also very smart in it's depiction of the war of the sexes and the independent woman of the 70s. Also impressive is the way the awesome Adreienne Barbeau's character is written. It's often referenced as a solid and positive portrayal of an lgbtq character and considering the time in which it was released it deserves extra props. The dialogue is funny and relatable. You care about these characters and they're easy to root for because they're genuinely likable. As for the thriller stuff it's effective but a little bland especially by today's standards. That being said it's still a competent, well made film with great performances and it's really well made by a guy who was just about to be mega famous. 3.5/5

Solid 70's thriller that got lost in the shuffle. John Carpenter does a solid job to keep the pace going and keep the film suspenseful.

The film generates some nice suspense but its finale really doesn't live up to your expectations.
