Lei non voleva

I did not find anything that worths mention in this movie. Cheap production, no fantasy, routine script, bad acting and bad treatment of the stereotype of the outsider, 'the freak', who is threatening the security of the middle-class American family.

This is the type of movie that causes you to scream out loud at how stupid people can be. You are familiar with the type of story where a woman is being chased by a man and she ALWAYS falls and gets caught?

Where the police knows who the killer is, but they can't arrest him, "for lack of evidence?" Why is it that the killer or rapist is always smarter than the cops? Why is it that in these stories, the rape victims continue to put themselves in harm's way? It looks as if they are TRYING to have the crime repeated.

Peri Gilpin as Ellen Hayward, the rape victim who finds out that she is pregnant and that the rapist might be the father gives an adequate performance, but as written, she's very unwise. D. W. Moffett, as Mitch, her husband, is the same as all husbands are in this type of movie, understanding, but doubtful. Jere Burns is excellent as the rapist/psycho Lewis Snow, who is a lot smarter than the police.

Mr. Burns, I have seen for years in various roles, even in TV series as a regular ("Dear John"). I'd like to see him play more normal, challenging roles for a change. Mr. Moffett has movie star good looks and I'm very surprised that his career hasn't been more prominent. He's certainly as good an actor as many of those who are making big bucks today.

Even when movies are based on real-life characters, we realize how our laws shield the guilty and the innocent is left without protection. In this film, Ellen has poor support from the police and continually places herself in vulnerable positions which gives the rapist easy access. After the initial rape, she has two additional in-person encounters with him! This is what makes the viewer want to pick up a hammer and attack the TV screen.

What can I say Peri Gilpin was the best she's ever been. She played the role of the rape victim masterfully. She should have won an award for her performance.

The thing that bothers me and is so freaky about the movie is that as usual the guilty is protected and the innocent is left vulnerable. The police should give more protection and support to victims of crime. Another thing that's out of line is the accused always has more rights then the victims. This is wrong, and it should be changed.

I give this movie 10 stars out of 10. It's great. I recommend it to anyone who is interested.

i watched this not to long ago and i was horrified. this lewis snow character is really pshychopathic and freaky by all means. even though ellen hayward is probably a fictional character (but probably based on a real woman who was raped) i still feel bad for her. jere burns is the perfect choice for the "bad guy". 7 stars out of 10.
