I just finished watching this movie and i thought it was a really great production for lifetime TV movie. I actually think it could've been released in theatre's.
The acting was well done. This movie was also very good at maintaining suspense.
the only criticism was some of the music they chose which was not suited for the era this movie was set in.
I read some other posts on here that agree about the music but i don't think bad music should create so much negativity on what looked like a good production overall.
Having said that...the reasons why my views on this movie might be more positive than others is because
- i watch a lot of lifetime movies and felt as though this film was much better than the typical lifetime TV movie.
- i never watched the original movie made in the 1975 with Elizabeth Montgomery
- i haven't followed the original case so i didn't have any ideas on what or how this movie should be like.
so if you are like me... and come into the movie without any idea about this case or the history of it. you might enjoy it.
