Two young men strangle their "inferior" classmate, hide his body in their apartment, and invite his friends and family to a dinner party as a means to challenge the "perfection" of their crime.

This is such a fascinating and enthralling picture. I was impressed by it while watching it. The illusion of it all being one long take really . . . ropes you in, pun intended, of course

It's like watching a live play. The two stranglers are great, and Hitchcock and Stewart are always a great combination.

The woman who played David's girl, Janet, reminded me of Danielle Harris a lot.

I'm really glad I finally sat down to watch this film.

The discussion of whether murder should be legal or not is definitely a precursor to the Purge movies.
