Reviews for Peeping Tom
Peeping Tom's classic status is beyond doubt.

Stripped of its color and some excellent photography plus imaginative direction by Michael Powell, the plot itself would have emerged as a shoddy yarn.

Top CriticIt's an understanding and at times even celebratory film -- attitudes that scandalized critics years ago and are still pretty potent today.
