Dressed to Kill.

Directed by Brian De Palma.  Performances by Michael Caine, Angie Dickinson, Nancy Allen.  Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Inc.  1980.  105 min. Rated R.  Crime / Drama

At once tongue in cheek and scary as hell, Dressed to Kill revolves around the grisly murder of a woman in Manhattan and how her psychiatrist, her brainiac teenage son, and the prostitute who witnessed the crime try to piece together what happened while the killer remains at large. With its masterfully executed scenes of horror, voluptuous camera work, and passionate score, Dressed to Kill is a veritable symphony of terror, enhanced by vivid performances by Angie Dickinson, Michael Caine, and Nancy Allen.
