I think my ardour for this mellowed some by the end, when it REALLY went off the deep end. But for the most part, De Palma holds it together enough so that the film's sardonic sense of humor and visually playful twists pay off. In some ways, a silly remake of Sisters. Plus: John Lithgow! John Lithgow? John Lithgow. John Lithgow?!
