pretty, pretty good.
Good climate, little too less of a horror
fine
Charles Durning and Robert Lyons have a great scene in a graveyard.
There is no reason why a made for television movie from the 80s with a bad title should be this good. But it is. Top notch acting from pretty much everyone involved. A villain that is manipulative and just gets more despicable as he continues to try and cover his web of lies. Great sound design that captures the ambience of a rural night. An anti-hero that we never see too much of. Great camera work that does just enough to stand out without being over the top or jarring. I wouldn’t call it scary or creepy, but the film does a great job of building suspense and tension. A hidden gem for sure.
