Past Obsessions

This title Past Obsession is a non-original story with almost a carbon copy of "Sleeping with the Enemy" except "Past Obsession" is inferior in many ways. It was very plain and looked as if college students made this! The ONLY things that I liked in this dull movie was the scenery and the log cabin where our damsel in distress hides in. Too many weird flashbacks, are they implying that the characters are psychic? No. It was just a silly film trying to be arty.

Also,noticed this being another movie that Lochlyn Munro is in with Josie Davis but it makes three along this story line. There is a new one on Lifetime and he plays the co worker to a female and helps her with idea on how to deal with/take out her abusive husband .

What I do not see here is the fact no one has picked up on the fact this is the same story line as the Julia Roberts movie " Sleeping with the Enemy "...same exact story line

From the fact she planned her getaway, stored certain things away in the house , in the bathroom, hubby getting the call that prompted him to suspect she was still alive,..does anyone remember the fallen apples in the Julia Roberts movie where the neighbor wants to charge her for the apples so she dumps them ? In this movie, she is doing a sketch and he wants to charge her half since she is standing on his property. So many subtle nuances in this newer version of "Sleeping With the Enemy"

Is this not plagiarism ?

This is a total ripoff of Sleeping With the Enemy...but not as good. If there is nothing else on TV and you just need some background noise, then go for it. If you really want to sit down and watch a suspenseful movie about a wife escaping her abusive spouse, watch the real deal with Julia Roberts.

I actually don't know how movie makers get away with doing this type of thing. They basically stole every move from "Sleeping with the Enemy" The acting is horrendous although Josie Davis who started on "Charles in Charge" is absolutely gorgeous and did the best she could with such flimsy writing, direction and cinematography.

This is the sort of film me wive watch when she home all day. She can watch lots of films in a row while she eat chocolate and wine and popcorns lot...

Anyone who says the acting is rubbish give your head a wobble. Lets see u do better or look better?
