Doesn’t look dated


I just watched this after not seeing it since it’s 1988 theatrical run, and it really held up well. It looks fantastic and devoid of a lot of 80s movies tropes like cheezy synth music and hideous fashion. All three actors are terrific with Nicole owning every scene she’s in.
A classic Aussie thriller!

Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane are the real stars of the film. The movie sizzles when both are on screen at the same time.

I'm still trying to figure out what happened to Billy Zane's career.

After having a large role in what was then the highest-grossing movie of all time, he just kind of faded from view and into a 25-year stretch of TV movies and low-budget thrillers.
