Those looking for a tight thriller will be bored; those looking for effective horror will be annoyed.
Apollo Guide
Rating: 1.5/4 --
Many of the risible moments come courtesy of the scenes in which stage star Sally Ross (Bacall) is preparing for a new musical -- the glimpses we see of the kitschy show designate it as the unholy lovechild between 1980's Xanadu and 1983's Staying Alive.

Film Frenzy
Rating: 3/5 --
An unsettling thriller about a celebrity stalker that only falters at the end. Good work by Bacall and especially Biehn.
Fantastica Daily
Rating: C+ --
Chilling but unrealistic stalker film.

Creepy Michael Biehn is memorable.
Nolan's Pop Culture Review
Rating: 3/5 --
Enjoyably campy trash.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
As Douglas closes in on his Broadway prey, The Fan ramps up the horror movie tropes just as it ramps up the Broadway schmaltz of the finished show.

Product Description:
A dangerous dance of celebrity obsession bubbles over in this cult classic tale of teenage infatuation. From director Eckhart Schmidt, this shocker tells the story of a teenage girl (Desiree Nosbusch) who stops at nothing to be close to her idol, the pop star "R" (Bodo Steiger).
