Cruising (1980)
Country: US
Technical: col 106m
Director: William Friedkin
Cast: Al Pacino, Paul Sorvino, Karen Allen
Synopsis:
A police detective goes undercover in the seedy world of NYC gay clubs to catch a serial killer preying on homosexuals.
Review:
Friedkin infamously held nothing back in his portrayal of predatory gay sex, and Pacino is his willing accomplice. The results are at times hair raising but never less than compelling, although gay groups were offended by the reductive nature of the cruising 'costume'.
