I think this role gave us an insight to Jameson's acting ability. He was a calculating, deadly bad man, who wanted his wife disposed of. He was callous and uncaring....... I loved it! He has the ability to play most roles, but I did prefer him in Simon & Simon, and miss seeing him on TV in that role. This wife's role was also very well acted by Cheryl Ladd. She was terrified of her husband, and look so on screen. But Jameson drew me to this movie. I watch all his films and would like to see more this year, if he makes any, but we shall see. I enjoy watching all his TV and Film appearances and miss seeing him on our small and big screen. COME BACK, PLEASE!
The story took off straight from the beginning. No time wasted in character building. The story telling was exceptional and gave enough screen time for emotional buildup, especially the struggle the family goes through in the light of the shocking discovery.
On the whole a well-made movie.
I did watch the whole movie, but it was far from gripping. Mostly, I was incredulous how stupid either the main character Linda was or how stupid the story was presented. It really did strain credulity.
I cannot believe that no one caught that this is the exact same plot, I mean exact. The ending , the way they caught the husband, The exact same plot. And oddly, the same actor played in both feature films.
His name is GW Bailey. He was in both films.
I just saw Downpayment for Murder, with Connie Seleca and Ben Gazzara and I said to myself "wait a minute", this is the same plot as Dead Before Dawn. And sure enough it was.
Oh they changed the employment status of the husband but it was SAME PLOT.
Unbelievable.

I can honestly say this is one of the best made for TV movies I've ever watched. The plot was amazing and had me thoroughly engaged throughout and, the acting from all the actors involved was fantastic especially from the very talented Cheryl Ladd who shines in her performance as Linda Edelman.
Another reason I like this movie so much is that I found it to be so realistic, truthful and at times brutally honest about what goes on behind closed doors when someone is in an abusive marriage like Linda was. It's just a shame a lot of the made for TV movies aren't like this anymore because, if they were I'd certainly be giving out a lot more ten's.
I'd definitely recommend giving this one a watch if you haven't already or, your just learning about it now like I did today you really won't be disappointed.
