I met Donald Cammell shortly after he finished production on "Wild Side" We were at director Martin Donovan's house in Los Angeles. It was one of those eclectic memorable evenings in front of the fire in that fabulous Italian villa... Full review

Curiously, I continued to watch this...as unlike many flicks around these days, it was quite unpredictable. Okay. It has a few flaws, like Mister Walken's sometimes way out overacting, but this may have been down to the director's untimely death... Full review

My eyes were positively *glued* to the screen throughout this movie!!!! It had an enjoyable if somewhat farfetched plot, just the right amount of action and a memorable performance from both Anne Heche and Christopher Walken.... Full review

Intriguing, eye-opening thriller this, featuring an outrageous, insane and over-the-top performance from Christopher Walken even compared to his usual crazed output. Essentially a romance between the two leading ladies, Walken is the central figure and catalyst of all events as... Full review

The story goes like this : Donald Cammell died , heartbroken by the producers' typical butchering of his film, which was released as a "straight to late Friday night" sleazy thriller; ...and, with hindsight, it's easy to believe this. Thankfully,... Full review

My comments about Wild Side are mainly for the version of the film that was released in late 2000. I always enjoy a movie that has something odd and strangely compelling about it and Wild Side takes first prize. I... Full review

So the company recut the film into a shorter, simpler, more salable version.
His movie Wild Side was supposed to have been an arty, sexy thriller with Christopher Walken, Joan Chen, and rising actress Anne Heche as Alex, Long Beach banker by day, sophisticated call girl by night.

Shadows on the Wall
And in addition to the camp value, this visually striking film does have a clever structure, spinning expectations around with secrets and subplots that aren't always logical but keep us intrigued even as it goes off the rails.
And what emerges is a trashy 1970s-style crime romance with vivid characters and an almost overwhelming desire to both titillate and shock.
