An incredibly boring, unimaginative, obscenely overlong and pointless film. I just watched it 2 days ago and I really can't even remember it. Has nothing memorable going for it whatsoever at all. I like Dennis Hopper, but he is god awful here. But thats ok, because so is everyone else. The writing is nearly as bad,

Good mystery, it?s slowly paced, but it doesn?t effect the film much. Stylishly directed, nice cinematography and imagery. Good acting by Dennis Hopper. Very good score.
