Holy cow, do I love me some Dressed to Kill! This was my first Brian De Palma film, and I encountered it well before I encountered much Hitchcock, so that first go 'round I missed an awful lot of the homages. I just remember thinking, "Holy cow, is that Lewis from Robocop playing a hooker?" and from there on... :D
I actually learned about Dressed to Kill from a documentary called Terror in the Aisles years before I got to see the movie. I learned a lot of stuff about horror from Terror in the Aisles. Such a great documentary. :)
I loved the trip down memory lane you took me on with this article, Jane. Keep up the awesome work! :)
