    I agree with you.
    One of the ridiculous parts was the psycho in the hospital bed and not restrained at all. Maybe this movie was meant to be more of a comedy/silly thriller.

        That was a dream sequence
        Anyway I agree with OP. It was obvious who the killer was.

            Although the movie is very flawed, not for the reasons you cite.
            For one thing, some people freeze up when approached by razor-weilding psychos I know I do.
            Non-sequiturs are delicious.

                I don't get why people say they figured out the twist ending. There wasn't an element of suspecting the ending due to the ads and reviews before watching it?

                    I had never seen or heard of this movie. I loved it until I saw the killer, very disappointing.

                        i just watched it with 10 friends all guys, 20s and 30s only one figured it out and they loved it of course it's a group of people that like horror and thrillers so maybe they can appreciate the build up and style more than others
                        what's so great about that elevator scene plus the cat and mouse buildup up to it in the art gallery is we get the idea of what's going on in her mind she's overwhelmed before the killer even approaches
                        she's concerned about her panties, her ring, she just cheated on her husband with a guy with VD her head is spinning already then suddenly a strange looking woman with a knife appears in front of her
                        so great

                          The only reason I worked it out was because of the 'Hitchcock' technique used.
                          I studied Psycho as a case study in school, and as soon as I saw
                          the killing of the supposed lead character in the first reel and the story taking a different direction as a result technique, I kind of saw where it was going.
                          Otherwise, it was very well done, a mix of giallo, Hitchcock and DePalma's personal touch.

                              I've always liked this movie, it's one of my favorites, I'm a big fan of De Palma's movies in general

                                  Sisters is good, too. The main actress in that, Jennifer Salt, was such a babe as Angie Dickinson was in this one.
                                  I always liked this movie and like a previous poster, was hooked on the Hitchcock elements of the film. I didn't pick the twist though when I first saw it and as another poster said, I was busy going over all the things she would've been thinking of in the scenes prior to the elevator.
                                  Mogwai come much responsibility.

                                    I figured it out the moment she got killed, after that I stopped watching. It was a bad move to make the killer so obvious.

                                      Moron the twist wasn't that he was the killer, the twist was that he and "Bobbie" were one and the same. So if you tell me that when Elliott was talking to Dr. Levy, you knew at that point that Levy was going "Wow here I am talking to the crazy Dr. that is trying to block his own sex change operation!", I know you're lying.

                                        Um I knew he was the trans person. That was not a twist if you knew the doctor was the killer.

                                          I figured it out seeing the picture of the killer on the back of the soundtrack album! It was bloody obvious who it was wearing sunglasses and a blonde wig!
                                          Was it a millionaire who said "Imagine no possessions"?
