Wild Side
Anne Heche stars as Alex Lee, a loan officer who works as a high-class call girl by night, in this erotic thriller. When Alex is unwittingly caught up in a sting operation by the police, she is forced to agree to help catch a notorious underworld boss named Bruno (Walken) who had hired her one evening. Bruno, smitten by Alex's domination of him, becomes fixated, but sends out his bodyguard, Tony, to make sure she's not a cop. However, Alex also meets and begins a passionate relationship with Virginia (Chen), Bruno's wife. Soon, all four of them are embroiled in a complex relationship that threatens to destroy them all. Featuring a bizarre and bravura turn by Christopher Walken and excellent performances from Anne Heche and Joan Chen, director Donald Cammell (PERFORMANCE) has crafted a highly stylized modern noir that trumps just about every other film that fits that description.

Oblique, melodramatic tale of homoerotic intrigue and betrayal among crazed individuals, in which normality never intrudes; Walken gives one of his notably eccentric, over-the-edge performances.

Flawed, frustrating, occasionally brilliant thriller
When 'Wild Side' was cut to pieces by a confused and panicky studio, the film's distraught director Donald Cammell committed suicide. Now restored ... read more »

bland
Some good actors, especially Christopher Walken, wasted in a pretty dire film that meandered to a pointless end.

Inside every bad film
