Long before that he raped Pia Zadora in The Lonely Lady... with a garden hose.

Something Wild put him on the map --- he was terrifying in that

He had the whole 'dude's definitely up to no good' face and demeanor down straight from the jump and all the way through in 'Identity'

I'm sure he was told about 10,000 times growing up "you got a face perfect for a villian in a movie" and so Liotta just ran with it

the 'With Gourley and Rust' podcast just did a whole 8 episode arc on "Yuppie Nightmares" and it has been an absolute joy! This article is so in time with that podcast that I have to assume they're a listener.

This movie was a little absurd but a damn fine guilty pleasure watch.

Lakeview Terrace (2008) wasn't a bad update of this premise. I can't think of any more recent examples, but I'm sure there are some.

I love this movie. I always saw it as a hidden gem. Liotta is so damn good in it. May he rest in peace.

I love this movie.
For years I looked to find a shirt like the one Kurt Russell wears in one scene (long sleeve, blue with black lines) - I found and still have.

10 year old account where all you do is bitch and whine.
What a sad life you must lead.

Ray Liotta had one of the most sinister-looking faces in Hollywood history --- roles like this were perfect because he could just stare into the camera and frighten you
