After losing an acting role and his girlfriend, Jake Scully finally catches a break: he gets offered a gig house-sitting in the Hollywood Hills. While peering through the beautiful home's telescope one night, he spies a gorgeous woman dancing in her window. But when he witnesses the girl's murder, it leads Scully through the netherworld of the adult entertainment industry on a search for answers—with porn actress Holly Body as his guide.

I liked it, I can understand why people wouldn't but I just found it to be fun filmmaking with a compelling enough plot.

Another example of Hollywood doing some world class navel gazing. Two very good suspenseful scenes which is the stuff that DePalma is so good at, but I came away wondering how this ended up being Melanie Griffith's "big break." She has the equivalent of an extended cameo really (I personally thought she was better in "Roar"-LOL), but I think this mainly suffers from an unlikeable lead that is not particularly convincing at some of the big shifts necessary for the character in this movie. Enjoy the mall/beach chase though and the battle in mansion. They are very good. No need to watch the rest.

That third act is just nuts. What an odd movie. You gotta respect the big swings Brian took.

What an odd, sometimes laughable, movie, I was riding high after watching Blow Out and needed more De Palma in my life. Right from the first frame I knew this wasn't going to scratch that itch. Or maybe it did by the end?! De Palma, man. Always throwing me for a loop.

Anyway, it opens with hi More

"I like to watch."

‘Body Double’ is Brian De Palma’s erotic mystery thriller that I went into with some idea of what to expect, for me to leave with something different.

The movie is about Jake Scully (Craig Wasson, who is fantastic in the film), a struggling actor after being fired from More
