I suggest that you go here to read the backstory on it which may explain why what you watched was so bad.
There was a lot of controversy between May and Paramount, the studio who supported the movie.

I saw it when I was like 13 or 14
back when something like this would actually be
shown on over the air TV at like 1am.
I liked it, maybe just because it was so
different from the usual Spielbergian
****e being foisted on us.
Maybe I wouldn't be quite as impressed today.

John Cassevettes is always a plus IMO.
One guy is like lying to and ****ing over
and setting up the other guy thru the
whole thing, right ?
If I'm not mistaken Cassevettes is the schmuck.
As in The Killers which I saw around the same
time under the same circumstances which I'd
still call one of my top 10 or 15 movies.

Yep. Mikey
(Falk)
is lying to, and setting up Nicky
(Cassevettes) for a mob hit.
It's mediocre at best.
Meanwhile, I've never seen
The Killers.
PS The only reason I watched it is because someone here on this silly board recommended it.

PS Are you referring to the
1964
version, rated 7.0 on imdb, or the
(apparently superior)
1946
version which is rated 7.8?
