Craig WassonBody Double 4K Ultra HD SteelBook (4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray + Digital) - 4K + Blu-ray + Digital [4K UHD]

I have had this movie on DVD for years and thought the movie itself was quite good and had a decent storyline.Melanie Griffith looked good being this was 1984. She went on to do WORKING GIRL and then PACIFIC HEIGHTS with Michael Keaton. She was fab in those as well. Craig Wasson stars as the temporary out of work actor in Hollywood who seems to get another chance at life. He meets a so called friend through an acting class and then ends up in a prestigious house in the hills. One night while house sitting, he becomes obsessed with the woman down the hill. After a few nights, he is witness to what seems to be a murder.He rushes over to try and help, but it is too late and gets ensnarled in the mystery of it all.Melanie Griffith plays a porn star that unfortunately nearly gets herself killed in the process becoming a part in the mystery.It's a who done it murder mystery, 1984 style, with Melanie Griffith and Craig Wasson (HART TO HART).The video and sound are nothing short of superb this time around and INDICATOR has done a fabulous job.I played this back on the UHD 4K equipment and it was beautiful.** SPECIAL FEATURES ARE:~ 4K Restoration~ Original Stereo Audio~ Alternate 5.1 Surround Sound Track~ Craig Wasson Interview (1984, 8 Min.)~ PURE CINEMA (2015, 38 Min.)

Disregard the critics. This is an awesome movie. I just saw it for the first time last week Sept 10, Friday 2021. Until I bought this blu ray from Amazon, I had not heard of this movie but I am a huge Brian DePalma fan so I gave it a chance (I read the reviews on Google). This is brilliant suspense movie, it kinds of brings together the concept of Rear Window and Vertigo in a brilliant screenplay. Obviously, Brian De Palma is influenced by Alfred Hitchcock but there is nothing wrong with that. Brian De Palma has his own artistic style and knows how to craft a movie. Despite the similarities to Alfred Hitchcock, I think this movie (and Dressed to Kill) are great movies showcasing De Palma's brilliance as a director. Blu-ray is a really good transfer with almost no damages to the print, some scenes may appear grainy but overall I think this is a superb transfer. It has 2 audio tracks: 2.0 and 5.1, both are great. There are also bunch of bonus features. I wish there was a feature commentary. Overall I give this product a 5 star. Certainly a movie I will watch again and again in the future. Love the Relax sequence by Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

A classic film that looks great in 4K, but I had a lot of issues. The disc would freeze and sputter off and on throughout the film. It’s hard to tell if it’s a disc issue or my Sony player. I don’t have issues with 99% of my 4K discs. The Blu-ray played fine so at least I can enjoy that. The steelbook is great, just wish the 4K played better.

This version is being upgraded to a excellent version on 4K and Blu-ray. The picture and sound are outstanding and so really cool extras on this new steel book release. Worth getting if you are a Brian de Palma fan. The man behind Dress to kill, Blow Out and of course Scarface 1983 remake

This movie I consider to be akin to 'Vertigo' by Alfred Hitchcock. The pace is a little on the slow side with a lot of non-verbal action pulling the story along. It also mimics 'Rear Window' in that the main character witnesses a murder. In this case though, he was set up to be the witness. DePalma seems to have taken these themes and added some very strong satire.He slams the porn industry in some very funny ways. You will have to watch and giggle along with some of these unforgetable scenes.What I liked mostly about this movie was that it kept you guessing until the end. I don't want to give away too much here, but a clever use of 'Hollywood Hijinks' and the line 'Don't believe everything you see' fit with the story very well.'Postcards from the edge' was the only strong movie that showed just how deceptive hollywood can be. In this film, DePalma shows how deadly and confusing it can be.As in 'Dressed to Kill', DePalma relies on non-verbal acting to carry the story, and quite successfully too. The scene begins when Craig Wasson leaves the house he is sitting to follow who he thinks he's been watching though a telescope. The scene is carried through a mall and then to a beach. I believe it's about 20 minutes. Played out well with body language and facial expressions, this scene couldn't work any other way.Like 'Vertigo', this movie seems to be drawn out somewhat. Maybe too much detail, not sure. I found myself becoming a little impatient at times for the story to continue.Not many movies attempt this slower approach, or do it in a way that makes it work.All in all, definitely a must see. Keep in mind, the action is a bit slow at times.Melanie Griffith appears here and does a great job in her role, as do the other actors. Filming, camera angels and use of props all work well. The plot is complex. This is a must see for suspense/murder mystery fans.
