Bridget Fonda and Jennifer Jason Leigh go to battle as housemates in hell in Barbet Schroeder's very effective thriller. Once you can get past the fact that Allison can afford to live in her gigantic, lavish NYC penthouse, the set-up is nothing new but expertly arranged to ensure maximum scares in the final few scenes. It could have been really hammy stuff but Schroeder has a good eye for framing his shots.
