Enjoyable, if generic, thriller. A hot woman, Claire, who works in media wants to spice things up with her husband and eventually have kids but he's a bit on the boring side. One night at a hotel she sees a double of her husband and thinking its him finally spicing things up and playing some role playing game, Claire ends up shagging him. Later, after another sexy meeting, she finds out it's not her husband but it's to late and the man goes full on stalker, using the fact he looks exactly like Claire's husband to his advantage. Ok, so this hasn't got enough sex in it to be deemed an "erotic thriller" so is more just a slightly entertaining thriller with passable performances and a decent enough plot to keep you interested. Plus Willa Ford has a great pair of tits. Not exactly great but there are worse films you could spend 90-odd minutes watching.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Loved it, Willa you're amazing. Impressed. A movie whose suspense thrills you every moment and keeps you hooked on through the movie.

Decent thriller deals with a bored housewife basically having an affair with the dude's doppelganger. But when she decides to just start getting it on again with her hubby, they new guy goes nuts. MacFayden is okay, but man if Ford super fine. And it helps that she gets naked an awful lot. Nothing new or original here, but not a bad watch.

we're merely left waiting to see when the Fatal Attraction plot points will finally take over and what creative way Kanganis will come up with next to get Ford out of her top.

...primarily resembles one of those late-night erotic thrillers that one occasionally stumbles upon while channel surfing...
