Michelle L I had not previously encountered this film, but I faintly recall its cover from my childhood on TV or VHS at the rental shop (God, to think these are no more). There are several similar titles available on Tubi that I remember seeing on the covers of VHS, although I was too young to watch them at the time. However, I am now able to appreciate them and am thoroughly enjoying the experience. This film embodies many characteristics of early 90s thrillers and made-for-television movies. During that era, it was quite popular to feature narratives involving older men and school-aged girls, as seen in productions such as "Poison Ivy," among others. However, this particular film presented a somewhat different perspective. Although it was watchable, it lacked excitement and was predictable in its plot development. Nonetheless, it served its purpose of providing entertainment and gave me the opportunity to see Tobin Bell in a non-horror role, which is primarily how I know him. Overall, while it may not have been exceptional, it was certainly more enjoyable than many other films I have encountered. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/03/25 Full Review Audience Member This is a classic 90s Lifetime movie. Lifetime movies today aren't as good as they used to be. This is one of my all time faves. Starring Stephen Collins from seventh heaven, Phylicia Rashaad from the Cosby show and of course the beautiful Keri Russel from Felicity fame and the Americans more recently. Classic thriller type movie it's been done a million times, but there are a few spins in this one that aren't like any other. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member The mother of the family for which Michelle (Keri Russell) baby-sits dies unexpectedly. Michelle is asked to take over looking after the children and is gradually "seduced" by the father (Stephen Collins). When suspicions arise that the mother had been murdered (and had been having an affair), Michelle unknowingly becomes enveloped in a web of lies until she herself is suspected. Gradually she realises all is not as it seems... also stars Phylicia Rashad, Tobin Bell and Linda Kelsey. directed by David Burton Morris. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Smells like Made for cable trash, but Keri Russell is in it, so that makes things more interesting. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Half Lifetime movie cheese (not that there's anything wrong with that...), half semi-thriller. Not sure what was weirder, seeing Stephen Collins as a crazed killer, or seeing him make out with Keri Russell (yuck). Felicity, step away from Reverend Camden!! Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member What does Lifetime Movie Network do for the world? It makes sure Keri Russell never forgets she fell for the feminine wiles of Stephen Collins. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
