Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: The ever-underrated director Robert M. Young (Dominick and Eugene) made this tense variation on The Postman Always Rings Twice. Edward James Olmos and Maria Conchita Alonso star as a long-married couple who run a fish store. When a young drifter (Arie Verveen) enters their lives as an employee and inhabitant of their home, he and Alonso commence an affair made all the more dangerous when the couple's creepy son (Steven Schub) moves back in. The ensuing Oedipal competitiveness grows to an explosive finale, and while the mythic underpinnings of the story may be a bit obvious, the film moves as fluidly and is as involving as any of Young's fine work. Lots of suspense, a richly noiresque tone, and terrific acting on everyone's part, particularly Schub. --Tom Keogh

You know how it happens..you can't sleep, you're changing channels and nothing is on. You happen upon a channel where a movie you've never heard of is starting and you figure you might as well watch it, maybe it'll put you out.
Not if it's "Caught".
What an amazing movie and performance by every actor in it. I highly recommend this movie to those who enjoy captivating, human stories and rock solid acting.

Rating: - "Star Crossed Lovers."
A transient, feckless and reckless 'prey', stumbles into another 'world.' One one side, a world of decency, endeavour, honesty, trust, and, loyalty. On the other, one of unbridled desire; caused by chemistry, aura, dynamics, and, sensuality, placing, both the 'hunted' and the 'hunter' upon a collision course with destiny. Amongst them all, the 'hunter's' evil offspring, an Iago-figure, resentful of, the 'object of his desire' longing for someone representing all that was pure and decent (the 'hunted') ... Read More
Rating: - Love it!
Highly recommend this movie. It's captures our most vulnerable human emotions with great acting. I watch it quite often.
Rating: - Don't Miss It!
Brilliant script and very well acted by everyone in this movie! I don't know how this movie didn't get more publicity at the time, possibly because it didn't have big box office names, but for everyone who loves an intriguing story, this is one not to miss. This movie will stay with you long after the credits are rolling. Excellent doesn't cover it, the movie is brilliant.
