Storyline

A woman attempts suicide when she suspects her husband doesn't love her and is having an affair. Now she's wheelchair-bound, and her husband, who indeed doesn't love her and is having an affair, hires a private nurse to look after his wife. The nurse begins to suspect that she was hired because of unproven allegations that she murdered someone's wife in a similar situation, that the husband wants her to murder his wife.

Trivia

As part of her deal to star in the film Tanya Roberts choreographed her own sex scenes. One of the scenes she directed with Brett Baxter Clark was too graphic even for the unrated version and had to be cut.

User Reviews

Very badly acted and directed.

The actors in this laughable, straight-to-video erotic "thriller" seem to be in a competition for booby prizes. It's really hard for the viewer to decide who gives the worst performance: the stunningly untalented Tanya Roberts, the irritating and unnatural Timothy Bottoms or the amazingly unattractive, horribly miscast Margaux Hemingway ? The script tries to hold our interest by continuously adding twists and doublecrosses, but the poor acting and the amateurish direction doom this suspesnseless film. All it has going for it are some hot sex scenes with Roberts. (*)
