Liaisons scandaleuses

The whole setup was fantastic. The twist was awesome.

Then there was the ending....oh the ending.... SMDH.

Ruined an otherwise great movie.

I was not sure what to think of the recent Harvard graduate Holden Price (Andrew W. Walker) when he came home to visit his multi-millionaire father, Mason Price (Winston Rekert), but just quick as the few bucks I have disappear from my pocket, even quicker does young Holden fall prey to his fathers abusive ways once again. To comfort Holden is his new stepmom, the much younger redheaded Lana (Angie Everhart) who quickly bond and are sympathetic with one another's plight as they struggle with each of their personal relationships with Mason Price.

Mason is a multi millionaire who likes to control both his son and his much younger bride. When Holden comes home one night and finds his father dead cold on the floor he calls the police and quickly becomes the police's prime suspect.

So we are left to try and solve this murderous puzzle with a number of potential suspects. After some twists and turns we discover who is responsible for the murder of the control freak multi millionaire Mason Price.

The second half of the film influenced me to increase my IMDB rating from a 5 to 6 and the ending was worth waiting for. It's a decent suspense/crime film that you may not see the ending coming. I confess, I was pleasantly surprised by the ending and maybe you will be also.

Too many plot twists in this 2002 thriller.

The All American Guy returns home after touring Europe. He has graduated from Harvard but sure does not act like a Harvard graduate.

His verbally and mentally abusive father has remarried. The son is bitter by the fact that the father showed no attention to his ex-wife during her final illness. In addition, dad has married quite a beauty who is much younger. This beauty has quite an abusive past herself. You know what that leads to so why bother to explain the point further.

Dad's is murdered and you begin to wonder, who did the 50 year old in? The plot goes through too many turns and it turns out that everyone is suspect with two people in cahoots together. You'd never expect them to do dad in.

Anyway, since everyone should have a plan, your plan should be to avoid this confusing mess. I will say-Did the police ever fall in!

Is this a super high-quality film? Absolutely not. Does it have the best actors in the world? Definitely not. But if you a fan of thrillers with lots of twists and turns, you will enjoy this movie! I will not give anything away, because I wouldn't want to ruin it for anybody, but there are a lot of things that happen that are unexpected and the plot was written quite well. As long as you go in not expecting it to be a masterpiece and just enjoy it for what it is, you won't regret it, especially if you like thrillers and whodunits. Also the end is wrapped up very nicely, which doesn't happen a lot in thrillers, especially more recent ones. Obviously this one's several years old, but I really enjoyed it! It was a really fun one to watch! Give it a chance!.

This TV film was great, it had lots of romance, mystery and the story kept me guessing right to the very end. Angie Everhart,(Lana),"Bare Witness",'02, married a very very rich older man and kept him very busy in bed much to his delight. However, the rich man's son returns from Harvard and accidentally walks into her bathroom while she is in her birth day suit and from then on, sparks seem to fly and the plot takes off in more ways than one. Andrew W. Walker,(Holden),"The Secret Pact",'99, is the rich man's son and after staying around the mansion for a while and getting to really know his father, he finds out his father has some very horrible and mysterious hang ups. You will find this film very hard to figure out and it is a very well produced film to enjoy.
