After killing her cheating husband, Melanie (Talia Shire) moves into an apartment building she inherited from her aunt. There she meets one of the tenants (Jack Coleman) and decides he's the perfect man to become her new husband. When anyone gets in the way of Melanie and her obsession, they find themselves in for a world of hurt.
Well, this was a pleasant surprise. Don't let the low IMDb score fool you, folks. This is an entertaining tongue-in-cheek thriller with a wonderfully campy performance from Talia Shire. This is the only time I've ever seen her in a lead role, let alone a comedic one. She makes this whole thing work. The thriller aspects are all predictable, which accounts for the low score I believe. At the risk of insulting the reviewers who didn't like this, I have to wonder how they didn't notice how the movie doesn't expect you to take it seriously. If you think the people behind this thought they were making Fatal Attraction or something, then I have to question how much of the movie you paid attention to. For those who haven't seen it yet, give it a shot and I think you'll find it's more fun than the low score and negative reviews would lead you to believe.
