Bad Influence
Originally released: 1990
An auspicious psychological thriller from master craftsman Hanson. It cashes in on Rob Lowe's late 1980s notoriety with emphasis on videotaped sex and a general atmosphere of sleaze. He's OK, but alongside him Spader offers one of his best white collar in peril turns, sweaty, implicated and extremely watchable. It's as obvious and well-mounted as everything Hanson does, despite a let-down ending.
