Avis à la une
Tami Hoag's Night Sins does have a follow-up. It's called Guilty as Sin. If you are not familiar with her work, she is an exceptional author and her books are riveting. I definitely recommend reading both books. I also saw the movie before I read the book and the movie drove me to read the books as well. I am glad I did. I am sure you will not regret it either.
Have fun continuing the story!
The storyline was suspenseful and kept me guessing for the first three hours. I'm usually very good at figuring things out so it took me a while. The plot in the second half of the movie didn't feel quite as credible as the first half, but perhaps watching it in it's entirety is to blame for that. It might have played better had I seen it over two nights as it originally aired.
Valerie Bertinelli did a more than adequate job and Harry Hamlin handed in a much better performance than I've ever seen him give before. When his character was telling the story of his family tragedy to Bertinelli's character, I was completely engrossed and found him to be totally believable. I was impressed with his range. Pruitt Taylor Vince did an wonderful job. He portrayed just the right amount of creepiness.
I never read the book so I have nothing to compare it to. (I definitely want to read it now, though!) The end of the movie left me feeling somewhat dissatisfied. I don't enjoy stories that leave you with unanswered questions unless there is going to be a sequel. There obviously wasn't a second movie. Since I'm not familiar with Hoag's work, I wonder if there is a second book that addresses this issue. Does anyone know?
I hadn't planned to watch this "Mini Series" feeling that it was going to be the same old, same old... I found myself quite surprised at the twisting,turning plot that kept you jumping in your seat and you bet I didn't miss the conclusion two nights later.
Not only was this an excellent TV movie, but Valerie B. did a great job as the lead character Megan and Harry Hamlin was good in the lead of the tough cop with a heart of gold. I ran out and bought the book and enjoyed it so much, that I've got Tami Hoag's entire collection of books. If you get a chance to see this movie, Do Watch it, you won't be disappointed and Read her books, you'll be hooked just like me and my co-workers!
