User Reviews

Stalking is a real sickness!

Richard Thomas was excellent playing a really sick individual. Brooke Shields was good and too gorgeous for words.

Just a word re: a previous reviewer saying she should have just gone out with him once and that she was a snob.. No, no, no...that just encourages stalkers and can actually make it worse. She did nothing wrong...she was the VICTIM!! It gets kind of blurred sometimes...(Sorry to sound preachy, but, I teach health and healthy relationships in HS and I try so hard to help the kids know the difference).

Anyway, good docudrama and can help give some insight into these potentially dangerous situations.
