filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
duesouth1420 *****Warning: May contain SPOILERS********* My HUGE problem with this movie is how totally self-centered and self consumed the adulteress wife is!! After having a one night stand with a slimy psycho she is being stalked by him. He calls her constantly and threatens her and even sends a video of their night together. He is OBVIOUSLY crazy and very dangerous. The problem is she only thinks he is dangerous to HER (and exposing her secret). Not for one second did she ever have one thought of concern for her husband! Did she even for a moment think of him possibly being in danger from this psychotic?? As soon as she realized how mental he was she should have warned her husband no matter what the consequences. Maybe there wouldn't have been a movie then but there really wasn't one anyway so what's the difference.
guilfisher-1 This 2001 made for TV film showed on LMN, naturally, as it seems all movies that are doomed end up on that channel. Seeing the likes of Don Murray, whom I like and respect his body of work, stoop to doing this trite was very sad. As also Ed Asner. Olivia Hussey was terrible in this and I wonder if she ever was a good actress. I couldn't stand her running around denying everything and then saying she was scared. Many times help was offered to her and she reneged. And that hair of hers. Haning straight down and too long made her look like a vampire. It was definitely not attractive. In fact most of the film she looked dowdy.William Riead wrote and directed this loser. Anthony Denison plays the lover with the emotion on a one level. You don't believe he really had any interest in her. And her looks wouldn't encourage anyone to want to have an affair with her. Totally unbelievable performances and wasted film with Asner and Murray not getting what they deserve as actors.
whpratt1 This story is about a sort of attractive middle age wife with some middle age problems around the waist, who is being neglected by her husband in the sex department. This gal is Oliva Hussey,(Catherine Gaits),"Headspace",'05, who is married to a very busy wealthy guy who just simply falls asleep as soon as he gets into bed. One day her husband decides to purchase a yacht and sends his wife off to settle the sale of the vessel. Catherine meets up with a young man, John Denison,(Peter Thornton),"Karla",'06 and Peter notices that she looks very much like his wife and he becomes very interested in her and they have a drink together. It is from this point on that things begin to go crazy and the picture speeds into action and the drama begins. Very good film for a TV Show, but sort of a copy-cat story we have seen many times before.
Rain85 **THIS MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS** Island Prey IS a good film, if you give it a chance. However i couldn't help feeling that the whole idea of the film was recycled from other recent thrillers which did the job better. Think Dead Calm(88) and Fatal Attraction(87) mixed together and you get Island Prey. Obviously the film was made on a lower budget which justifies it a bit but there is no excuse for the lack of tension and suspense, a key element in thrillers.A basic plot synopsis: Wealthy woman embarks on a one-night-stand with a yachtsman. She decides she'd rather stay with her husband. Yachtsman follows her home to L.A., stalks her, tells the woman's husband. RESULT: Showdown in their big isolated house that quite literally ends with a bang!Whilst i can't deny that i did enjoy watching this film, the chemistry between the actors was non-existent and the script sometimes sounded as if it was written on the day of filming. Olivia Hussey is a great actress and most of the film was carried by her and two other actors (Don Murray and Tony Denison)So i can't really complain about the acting.At the end of the day, i would advise hardcore drama/thriller fans to watch this film or those who like the actress Olivia Hussey. Otherwise its not likely it will be appreciated. I had to order the film from the USA as it is not available in England, so go for it, and see if you agree with me!
