John Ritter, in a sinister performance, as a Ph.D person who has poisoned 2 wives.
It is hard to believe that the ex-wife and current wife could have such an excellent relationship, but the story is well-told and Ritter's performance, his subtle ways, his slow but menacing talk, are all memorable. He really showed versatility as an actor in this film.
Nice to see Madeline Zinna,"The Nanny's" youngest charge, and Jessica Bowman, who starred in "Dr. Quinn-Medicine Woman." in teenage roles.
The women who play the wives are convincing and this movie should have been highly rated and emmy nominated.
