Description

In one of Paul Verhoeven's most provocative films, Detective Nick Curran (Michael Douglas) becomes ensnared in a web of sex, lies, and violence, all leading back to Catherine Tramell (Sharon Stone), a seductive, mysterious crime novelist. As the bodies pile up and hidden obsessions are revealed, Curran begins to doubt his investigatory instincts and give in to his baser ones.

"A slick, trashy, blatantly manipulative thriller that you won't stop watching once you start." Boston Globe

"Basic Instinct transfers Mr. Verhoeven's flair for action-oriented material to the realm of Hitchockian intrigue… viscerally effective." The New York Times
