Plot Summary
Brian De Palma invites you to witness a seduction...a mystery... a murder. It's Body Double a spine-tingling look at voyeurism and sexuality from the modern master of suspense. Jake Scully (Craig Wasson), an unemployed actor, is asked to house-sit at a luxurious hillside apartment. As a bonus, the home offers Jake a telescopic peek into the bedroom of Gloria Revelle (Deborah Shelton), who performs an arousing striptease. When Jake discovers another man is also spying on Gloria, he begins an obsessive surveillance of her. Soon a grisly murder leads him into the world of X-rated films where he meets sexy porn queen Holly Body (Melanie Griffith), who is a key to the crime. De Palma has created a gripping adult thriller of eroticism and horror!

Differant type of thriller
Off beat , color filled, full of twists thriller. I think you will enjoy it. I saw it in the theater when it first was released, owned it on laser now ITunes.
Good movie
I think this movie is good for what it is. I saw it when it first came out in the 80's and it wasn't that bad. My advice is to rent it and judge for yourself. It has it's good moments.
