Is It A True Story ?

Hey get this , a FATAL ATTRACTION clone ! How original . No doubt if us men watch enough of these films we`ll empathise with women who`ve been stalked in real life . I don`t think so .

This is how HER DEADLY RIVAL plays for the most part . Hunky married man keeps getting horny phone calls from a secret admirer then when he rejects her suggestions she gets angry . But there`s a final twist at the end as to the identity of the stalker which is very hard to swallow . It`s even harder to swallow when we`re told that this is based on a true story because I don`t recall reading about this case in the newspapers , and make no mistake if the events in HER DEADLY RIVAL did happen it would have made front page headlines all over the world
