Once in a while, studio heads actually make smart decisions. Kudos to whoever at Trimark screened this embarrassing, overwrought, underthought 'mystery' and decided, 'You know, we really don't need to let the American public see this,' and immediately shipped it straight to video. Probably the one most pleased by the decision was Alicia Silverstone, who didn't need this type of thing getting a theatrical distribution and hurting her blossoming career. As for Kevin Dillon? Well, he was probably happy just to get a paycheck. Silverstone plays the teen Nancy-Drew-meets-Encyclopedia-Brown protagonist who teams up with fresh-faced police cadet Dillon to try to bag a serial killer who's been butchering teenage girls at traveling carnivals in various cities. Writer-director Pat Verducci packs his thriller with implausible detective work and numerous plot twists, all visible 20 minutes away. The 'shock' ending can pretty much be figured out within the very first act, leaving viewers another hour to watch Verducci concoct several amateur dream sequences, and explore a disgusting sexual relationship between Silverstone and Dillon. By the end, the question isn't so much 'Whodunit?' as 'Who cares?' --Dave McCoy

I stumbled across this movie on Lifetime Television this morning. What caught my attention initially is how much Kevin Dillon sounds so much like his brother Matt (vocally).
I liked it for a TV movie and I felt for Mary at the end as I think her character really didn't wanna believe the "twist" that was taking place.
Kevin makes a good bad boy that's for sure. Both him & Matt play bad duded pretty damn well and they're easy on the eyes too!
Granted I don't think alot of people might feel the same way but I thought it was a neat little thriller that told it's story well in 90 minutes.

The ending has always stuck with me. A young girl following her dad to the police force. Not a great movie, maybe not even very good. But a story good enough to tell.A collrctable movie.

Let's face it sometimes you just need to sit through a bad movie. This one would be a fabulous choice !
Kevin Dillon is, well, Kevin Dillon. At least he remembered his lines.
Alicia Silverstone is an ugly virgin bookworm (yeah, sure).
The big mystery can pretty much be figured out within 10mns and you spend the subsequent 80 screaming at Silverstone "Don't you GET IT by now, you MORON ????"
All in all a very very very bad flick I really enjoyed.

I like most of the movies Alicia Silverstone is in. I thought this movie was entertaining but i can see it as just a tv movie, im not suprised it wasnt in the theatres. It is probably on the same level or a little bit better than the babysitter which also starred Alicia silverstone. Movie is about a girl who is fascinated and interested in crime and detective work. Soon a fellow classmate is murdered and she starts to investigate the case along with the police officer played by ( matt dillon). While shes investigating signs are pointing to dillan as the killer and then things get worse from there. This was a pretty good thriller and if you like this i recomend the crush and the babysitter as well. Overall good story.

This is a good thriller despite the fact many critics panned it. Alicia Silverstone is excellent as the virginal Mary Giordano who wants to follow in her dead father's footsteps and become a police officer. Secretly investigating some recent teenage murders Alicia finds herself in mortal danger from a madman who knows more about her than she realizes. Billy Nunn is great as a cynical older Cop who knew Alicia's father and tries to tell the eager young woman she shouldn't romanticize crime. Aided and abetted by a sexy young cop played well by Kevin Dillon, Alicia is drawn into a web of deceit and desire that just might kill her if she is not careful. There is a wonderful sting in the tale that will shock you (if you don't work it out first) and the plot and acting is very first rate. Another underrated film that deserves more merit than it is given.
