Critic Reviews
-
Jeremy Heilman, MovieMartyr.com
Anchored, and essentially redeemed, by a fearless performance from Melinda Page Hamilton, Sleeping Dogs Lie has little else to recommend it from a creative level.
-
Rich Cline, Shadows on the Wall
This jet-black comedy has a surprising sweetness that counter-balances the story's profoundly disgusting plot points.

Harvey S. Karten, Compuserve
