Critic Reviews of "The Hillside Strangler"
Los Angeles TimesOctober 15, 2004A garishly slick piece of exploitation with surprisingly high production values but nary a moment of suspense.
New York TimesOctober 14, 2004This relentlessly unpleasant film documents the true story of cousins whose murder spree in late 1970's Los Angeles was at first attributed to a lone killer known as the Hillside Strangler.
L.A. WeeklyOctober 14, 2004A good horse kick, or a fistful of Valium, may help you get through this relentlessly sadistic exercise with your soul more or less intact.
New York PostOctober 12, 2004Another repulsive, fetishistic trawl through the life and crimes of a serial killer.
New York Daily NewsOctober 12, 2004Here's one for the Sick Voyeurs Club.
Horror.comNovember 06, 2004Dumbed down and sexed up, 'Hillside' cashes in on the overtly lurid aspects of the murders while giving short shrift to the more interesting psychological aspects of the case.
Shadows on the WallOctober 19, 2004Feels very cheesy due to its awkward, period-style acting and directing. But it's also chillingly informative.
Boxoffice MagazineOctober 15, 2004Career-wise, no one really stands to benefit from the film, with the exception of Turturro, who shows he's ready for bigger cinematic opportunities.
Christian Science MonitorOctober 14, 2004Sordid and sleazy, although the lead performances are hard to fault.
TV GuideOctober 12, 2004Parello's deadpan re-creation of the stranglers' repellent war on women is all the more chilling for being so matter-of-fact, and cinematographer John Pirozzi flawlessly evokes the grit-and-grime look of low-budget '70s crime films.
