Despite its relative failure at the box office, this is a worthwhile thriller from the director of Bonnie and Clyde.
Mary Steenburgen stars as an actress, Katie McGovern, lured to the upstate New York cabin of crazy Dr. Joseph Lewis(Jan Rubes).
Arthur Penn gets a lot of atmosphere out of the remote cabin and a raging blizzard, and the cast is terrific.
Lewis and his creepy assistant (Roddy McDowall) keep Katie captive, videotaping her and cutting off her finger to further their sordid plot.
She tries desperately to get away as the movie unfolds in gripping suspense.
As the title implies, the film showcases intense scenes as Katie navigates through the chilling events at the cabin.
The film is classified as R-rated and falls under the horror and mystery genres. It has its flaws but remains engaging for fans of thrillers.
