Reviews
- Rita Kempley wrote in the Washington Post (October 24, 1987) that the direction was poor. The film is a wealth of senseless scenes. The likeable Beau Bridges does not seem credible as a murderer. Camelia Kath looks like she is playing on a TV show.
Others
The filming locations were Los Angeles and Mendocino . The thriller grossed just over half a million dollars in US theaters.
