    Attractive suspense thriller from Brian de Palma is a voyeuristic and violent re-working of Alfred Hitchcock

    Mysterious story , competent performances and sense of style about a second-rate actor who witnesses a brutal slaying . The film begins and ends with the protagonist, Jake Scully (Craig Wasson), playing the part of a vampire on the set of a low-budget horror film . After he ruins a take by being unable to rise from a coffin due to claustrophobia , a fire breaks out on the set and he is sent home by the director Rubin (Dennis Franz) . Scully arrives home early and catches his fiancée (Barbara Crampton) having sex with another man . Since it is the girl's apartment , he must leave, so without a place to stay he heads to an acting workshop, where he makes a new friend, Sam (Gregg Henry) . Sam offers him a house-sitting arrangement at an opulent Modernist bachelor residence high atop the Hollywood Hills . He also points out a sexy female neighbor, Gloria Revelle (Deborah Shelton),whose seemingly exhibitionistic antics can be viewed by telescope. Then the young actor's obsession with spying on the bombshell woman who lives nearby leads to a baffling series of events with drastic consequences . A seduction !. A mystery !. A murder !. Brian De Palma the modern master of suspense invites you witness . Do you like to watch? You can't believe everything you see.

    A classic in suspense from De Palma , pitching us right into the action from the beginning and baffling most of us to the ending. Concerning a B-actor that when a grisly murder happens it leads him into an obsessive quest through the world of pornographic movies . The film displays a great and haunting musical score by Pino Donaggio , De Palma's favorite composer and imitating former hits , along with appropriate cinematography . There is much for De Palma buffs to savour in this thrilling and atmospheric handling of a complex story with deliberately old-fashioned treatment. Craig Wasson is assured as ever as the obsessed actor battling against his obsessions and Melanie Griffith in a difficult role as the porno actress who looks exactly like the woman on the the window , she strangely adds depth to her acting . An adequate frisson is supplied by Melanie Griffith , the daughter of one of Hitch's favourite blondes , Tippi Hedren , star of ¨Marnie¨ and ¨The Birds¨ . There are tense key images that that are brilliantly staged. This thriller flick is plenty of mystery, intrigue, and suspenseful . Adding special characteristics techniques as ominous camera movements .

    It contains colorful and evocative cinematography by cameraman Stephen H. Burum , as well as perceptible , impressive musical score by Pino Donaggio . Very good and graphically mysterious direction from Brian De Palma . Brian De Palma's homage to Hitchcock and the chief amusement turning out to be inquire what scenes taken from Master of suspense . That's why takes parts especially from ¨Vertigo¨ and ¨Rear Window¨. All this said, the mechanics of suspense are worked quite well and may frighten the easily scared quite badly , but De Palma has made a habit of dwelling on their more sordid side-shoots . The picture is brilliantly directed by Brian De Palma. This one along with ¨Sisters¨, ¨Dresssed to Kill¨, ¨Blow out¨ are outwardly another ode to Hitchcock , but the Master might well shift uneasily in his grave at the long-drawn-out tension , and the shock effects with the accent on the killing , but on most occasion is thrilling . Rating : 7/10 . Above average but gets some riveting basic ideas and fascinating images . Nowadays , being a highly considered film ; that's why it is deemed by many to be one of the Brian Palma's best.

    De Palma at his most subversive and satirical. Not for everyone.

    Rating: ***1/2 out of 4.

    Brian De Palma has had it with his critics and the rating's board. After the cuts that needed to be made to his masterpieces like DRESSED TO KILL and SCARFACE (which eventually got to be released in its intended format inconspicuously), the line is drawn. So naturally, he would make a movie about it. The result is BODY DOUBLE, a big thumb-in-the-nose to Hollywood conventions and 80's pop-culture. It's one-part Hitchcockian thriller and one-part satire, but its an all-around crazy movie.

    If you despise De Palma, chances are you'd consider BODY DOUBLE as one of his worst. Here, De Palma doesn't give a damn if you get him or not. Here, he revels in who he is and what he wants. He also intentionally throws in the trashy 80's fad at the time, from a tacked in music video of Frankie Goes to Hollywood's one-hit wonder "Relax" to the voyeuristic obsession with porn, as the sufficient atmosphere (as well as a social critique) of the era. The story, which basically riffs VERTIGO and REAR WINDOW, has a B-movie actor named Jake Scully (Bill Maher look-alike Craig Wasson) who has a very bad day when first he gets fired from his only B-movie gig and later sees her girlfriend in bed with another man. Discouraged, he bumps into a friend named Sam Bouchard (Gregg Henry, the most noticeable "Hey, isn't he that guy?" character actor appearing in De Palma's films) who invites him to watch over his place; a campy-looking tower mansion that looks like it came out of an episode of LOST IN SPACE. While there, Sam introduces him to his "favorite neighbor", a beautiful woman named Glora Revelle (Deborah Shelton) who does a striptease in her bedroom, not knowing she's being watched. Every night, Jake would watch Gloria doing her routine like clockwork through a telescope, which is harmless perverted fun until he realizes that her life may be in danger; danger in the form of a weird-looking Indian(!) who's spying on her too.

    It may take a lot of suspension of disbelief to understand the plot of BODY DOUBLE as it goes to even crazier heights. At first, it looks like the usual De Palma-as-Hitchcock thriller with some terrific sequences, then it turns into something out of a slasher film, then enters the sleazy world of 80's pornography where a young Melanie Griffith plays Holly Body, a porn star who may be a key to solving the crime. But when people realize that this is meant to be a thriller-cum-satirical comedy, they might enjoy it more. As usual, De Palma demonstrates his talents with staging mise-en-scene in sequences like when Jake stalks Gloria who is being stalked by the Indian (which is obviously borrowed from VERTIGO but is actually a little more voyeuristic in nature here) and there's the REAR WINDOW-inspired scene where Jake spies on Gloria while she's doing her striptease routine, backed up by a catchy score by Pino Donaggio.

    Overall, it's not meant to be taken seriously. "It's only a movie!", Hitchcock once said to some of his difficult actors, and this movie screams that mantra. Wasson's character was meant to be a an average loser and his casting isn't just coincidence; he was meant to play the audience's surrogate. The film being set in Hollywood is another. And is it no wonder that the director that Dennis Franz plays is a direct copy of De Palma? BODY DOUBLE thumbs its nose at Hollywood and many pop-culture fads of the era, turning out to be both a sleazy re-working of Hitchcock's classics and a clever satire.

    De Palma's slick peepshow.

    Jake is a washed up actor who walks in on his girlfriend with another man and so it means his got to find another place to live. Plus he is fired from the vampire movie he was involved in because that of his phobia of confined places. So, when Jake is checking about for some acting gigs he meets another struggling actor who offers him place to house sit and it does have its perks. Through a telescope he can spy on his neighbours, which through one window a lady goes through the same strip routine every night. Jake becomes extremely obsessed with the woman and he gets caught up in a seedy web of intrigue when he witness the woman being killed.

    De Palma goes all out on this occasion with his obsession with Hitchcock and the master's films that are under the spotlight in this voyeuristic thriller are "Rear Window" and "Vertigo". While, there might be elements borrowed from those films, De Palma still brings to the party his own distinguishable style and perspective. I've enjoyed most of his works and this one joins the ranks. Well, maybe one of the lesser ones since I was a bit iffy on it at times. I'll admit - it's pure trash, but technically it's done so well with many fashionable touches worked into this artistic piece of steamy erotica that I just found it hard to take my eyes off it. Some of those facets that make a mark is the camera-work that's handle rather silkily with it's many gliding shots and innovative angels. The taunting score rallies up the tension remarkably well and actually generates an alarming awe. There are some odd, kinky and down and out heart stopping images like that of the infamously lurid drill scene and a couple of downright claustrophobic build ups. The female cast involving Melanie Griffith and most definitely Deborah Shelton are desirably seductive. Craig Wasson as the down on his luck actor Jake was solid, but it's the freaky villain of the piece "The Indian" that will catch your eye and make you real nervous. Also there's a neat cameo role by Dennis Franz as a director, which is a neat treat. The over-the-top story tightly constructs itself around a complicated web of twists and turns involving sleaze and murder, but when it came to its climax it felt convoluted and rushed. The confusing revelation doesn't seem as effective and clever as it may think. Hollywood even comes under fire with it being mock with De Palma using the porn industry to do so. Anyhow, remember to shut your blinds, as who knows maybe someone is peering into your window right now. ;)

    "Body Double" is a flawed, but an interesting concept that I could not help but go with the flow.

    It borrows from Hitchcock? So What.

    this is a classic 80s flick, and a one of a kind from that period. i remember seeing this in high school and being blown away. seeing it today brings back memories of the effect it had on me then; and little of it to do with the "plot", but with the sleepy, dreamy atmosphere the film builds, the beautiful view Jake sees through his telescope (not the dancer either, but the home!), etc. I always wanted to see a revamped rear window type thriller, and this let me see at least an attempt at it through an 80s lens in LA/Bev Hills. I thought that was cool. I did feel sympathy for Jake - somebody said he's the weak willed everyman's character and he is that. Didn't like the end, too bad it had to dissolve into stupidity. Still a very good quirky 80s movie.

    Favorite scenes of mine - when Jake follows Gloria shopping (the whole scene), and when he finally meets up with her on the beach, after chasing down the purse snatcher. I would definitely go through what Jake did to have a 1 minute fling with a former Miss USA.

    One of the most absurd films by "a classic director" I have seen

    Body Double is ridiculous. One of the more ridiculous movies I have seen, maybe ever. Everything about it is completely over the top - while this is probably why a lot of people love this movie, for me it mostly had the opposite effect.

    First, let me talk about what mostly weighs it down. The lead character is pretty much unbearable. He has very little personality aside from an overblown and unrealistic claustrophobia problem, though he does end up unsheathing some major things it's still painful to watch the journey because he is an awkward, despicable creep the whole way getting there. I disliked him more and more with each shot. While the story seems to be written to be purely entertaining and not realistic (AT ALL), it just doesn't work for me in this case. There are too many cases in nearly EVERY scene where I found myself getting frustrated, saying aloud "That would not happen!", "That is not how that works!", "Why would anyone ever do that?!" constantly, over and over, more than I have done with the majority of movies in my life. The entire thing feels like a "complex" plot that someone planned out a week or two before shooting, and didn't give it any time to marinate and tweak anything to make it feel more organic. But, hey, if you just want an over-the-top B-movie sort of experience, this might tickle you the right way.

    One thing that is starting to win points with me after letting this film sit in my mind overnight is that due to it's extremely unrealistic unfolding of events, it does give the film a sort of dream-like or nightmarish sort of quality in your memory, which is always something that I value. Other strong elements are the fantastically eerie and intense music score by the legendary Pino Donaggio, Melanie Griffith at her sexiest and most scant possible, and a few sequences that you won't forget due to some really effective and very Hitchcock-ian cinematography.

    Overall, this film really does stand out, but I could never call it a GOOD film. If you just want to see something that is absolutely over the top, functions under it's own set of rules, and is a bit of an anomaly in movie history, especially as something that was created by someone who is considered "a legendary film director", then you'll want to see this at least once. Generally I'm sucker for rule-breaking, absurdist films but this one just hit wrong in too many different ways, which I could not ignore.

      The Indian had used an auger bit to open the victim's safe, and eventually to kill her. An auger bit was used because of its aggressive look, but would have no effect on a steel safe. They are for wood.

    • Versiones alternativas
      In Germany, while it was originally released uncut in theaters with a "Not under 18" rating, due to Columbia/TriStar targeting a "Not under 16" rating for home video release, the German VHS release was cut by approx. 55 seconds to secure such rating. The censorship mainly toned down the violence in a couple of death scenes. The 2000 DVD release with the "Not under 18" rating is completely uncensored and also in 2021 the FSK re-rated the uncut version to "Not under 16", waiving all previous cuts.
