A Kiss Before Dying featuring flawless performances by Sean Young and Matt Dillon.
Dillon plays a handsome, but ruthless killer determined to take control of a large mining company by marrying the owner's daughter. Dillon plays it deadly cool except for occasional slips when he loses control and his facade momentarily crumbles and his primal rage is revealed.
Sean Young plays a dual role as the twin daughters of the owner of the mining company. First one daughter is killed and then the other unwittingly marries the killer. She becomes endangered when she begins to uncover the truth about her husband. Max Von Sydow plays the reserved father in a fine understated performance.
Dillon lurks around every corner waiting to tie up another loose end by killing someone who knows too much. |
