This is not a great movie. But you won't soon forget it. It has some of the more explicit sex scenes you'll see in a movie from this period, including one that, well, let's just say it's amazing what people will do for those they love. And it is decidedly creepy when it wants to be, which is more than you can say about of lot of movies. Good performances, especially by Kinski, who had to be a pretty brave soul to sign up for this after reading the screenplay -- especially the last four pages.
And David Bowie's music is used to great effect in most scenes.
Rent it and watch it with someone you'd like to nibble and scratch behind the ears.
