Reviews
"It's a delicate balance that can produce such misfires as Body Double but when done right makes for a pretty thrilling ride."—Keith Phipps, AllMovie.comhttp://www.allmovie.com/work/dressed-to-kill-14786/review
"Dressed to Kill is the quintessential New York erotic horror-comedy of the grindhouse heyday; the film's luxurious, almost eerily plastique elegance just barely disguises its unapologetic presentation of fetish iconography."—Eric Henderson, Slant Magazinehttp://www.slantmagazine.com/film/film_review.asp?ID=2487
