Os Crimes da Viúva Negra

Haven't seen the movie but my father worked with Raymond Reid and told me about the story. He's seen the movie and says that the actor playing Reid looks very much like him. He met Blanch a few times and knew the store manager she got fired. Apparently he sent her downstairs from his office to retrieve some paperwork and when she returned, he was nude. She grabbed his pants and ran out of the office! Apparently she had quite a way with men, as this type of woman usually does.

I'm looking for the movie to watch it but not having any luck.

If anyone knows where it can be found, I'd appreciate knowing.

This movie starring Elizabeth Montgomery as Blanche Taylor Moore, is based on a true story. A basically psycho woman, Blanche, kills all of her- what is it, four?- husbands with Antiants, which is most likely a solution to kill ants. I understand this was based on a true story, but was it REALLY necessary to include the part about her breast cancer? There were some things in here that were really just not necessary to include. It was pretty good, though, and a good performance by Liz Montgomery with her great southern drawl! See this one if you are a die-hard fan of someone who's in it, otherwise it's not really worth it to watch, but it's not really terrible either.

I believe this movie could have been better in some ways. It should have included more background and greater detail of Blanche Taylor Moore's childhood. It would have helped us to understand more about her motives. After watching the movie on tv, I was intrigued enough to read the book. It helped fill in some of the missing pieces. I watch the movie every time I can catch it on tv, and the reason for that is Elizabeth Montgomery. I think this movie is worth watching just for her performance. She just drips sweetness and southern charm, flirts like it is second nature, and has attitude. I think she probably comes pretty close to capturing the essence of the real Blanche Taylor. You should hear some of the lines she uses on the men...You can really see her as the black widow catching her prey! I've got to say it is priceless when she says "I cannot wait for my head to hit your pillow so I can feel the comfort of your arms." What more can you ask for from a television movie?

This is a very gripping story, and Elizabeth Montgomery plays the lead role with a moving, emotional performance which couldn't have worked with anyone else. The story line is very strong and I didn't feel the need to turn to something more interesting which I find often happens with this type genre. It is well thought out, and has some great moments. I would recommend this to friends, which would be more to an adult audience, as the film does contain a couple of scenes which are not family viewing. If you're a Montgomery fan who hasn't seen this yet, then put it on the top of the list, because it's a brilliantly moving film, and her performance is well done.

I saw this TV movie years ago, but the story didn't really stick with me.

Recently i have watched this movie again

In terms of acting, Montgomery steals the show here with the way she manages to portray this mentally disturbed character.

She does this very well

She knows how to fool almost everyone into her true character and is a master at manipulating the people around her.

The only unbelievable thing in the story is the blind adoration that her lovers seem to have for her because in terms of sex appeal she looks very average (especially considering her age) but occasionally it is pretended that she is Miss Universe.
