Whenever I'm traipsing around the horror section in Movie Madness (a video store in Portland), I point out to other people that "He Knows You're Alone" was Tom Hanks' film debut. That's really the only memorable thing about it. Otherwise, it's just your average stalker film. Specifically, a killer is butchering people right before a woman is about to get married. Other cast members who later became famous were James Rebhorn and Paul Gleason (who played Clarence Beaks in "Trading Places" and the principal in "The Breakfast Club"). Knowing that Tom Hanks became probably the most popular actor in the United States, I wonder whether or not the movie would have been any different had he played the killer. I would like to see him play a bad guy, just for a change of pace (in "Road to Perdition", he played a hit-man, but he was still the protagonist; I would like to see him play the antagonist).
