I remember this being a really good movie when I first saw it come out, and wanted to add this movie to my collection. I don't have too many horror or scary movies in my collection, I'm not too impressed with the last decade of horror movies because they are not so much horror, as they are the amount of blood the directors and special effects seem to feel as though they have to add. Story...doesn't really matter, just keep adding more blood, that should make a great movie!...Uh...not really. This was well done, well directed, and had a very interesting story to it. Great job by "Pepper" as well as Michael Caine! The DVD also had some very good extras in it.
Wow!I was really impressed with this DVD.I also own this film on VHS,but the DVD is worth purchasing for the extras and the widescreeen format.Although it's a relatively minor part of the story,the best part of this film for me was the seduction scene towards the end featuring Nancy Allen and Michael Caine.It's nice to see some of the pricipal actors reminisce about making this movie in the special features section of the DVD.Though she's in her 50s,Nancy Allen is still quite attractive and Angie Dickinson still looks good for her age.
I saw this movie when it first came out in the theatre, and loved it, when I saw it available on DVD , I wanted it to add it to my DVD library,

While taking a shower, Kate Miller, a middle-aged, sexually frustrated New York housewife, has a rape fantasy while her husband stands at the sink shaving. Later that day, after complaining to her psychiatrist Dr. Robert Elliott about her husband's pathetic performance in bed, she meets a strange man at a museum and returns to his apartment where they continue an adulterous encounter that began in the taxicab. Before she leaves his apartment, she finds papers which certify that the man has a venereal disease. Panicked, Kate rushes into the elevator, but has to return to his apartment when she realizes she's forgotten her wedding ring. When the elevator doors open, she's brutally slashed to death by a tall blonde woman wearing dark glasses. Liz Blake, a high-priced call girl, is the only witness to the murder and she becomes the prime suspect and the murderess's next target. Liz is rescued from being killed by Kate's son Peter, who enlists the help of Liz to catch his mother's killer as Detective Marino who's in charge of the case is uncooperative in the investigation. This is pure Hitchcock with an 80's dash of lurid perversion, an affectionately told tale of lust and murder with plenty of twists, huge helpings of style, a stunning Pino Donaggio score, and a trashy, giallo-inspired plot. Let the virtuoso take you on a surreal, scary, erotically charged odyssey and you'll enjoy every frame of "Dressed To Kill".Read full review
This is an older movie. but is still a great one. It has been 30 years since I had seen it, but I watched it and never lost interest.
