I've got just one word for this movie --- Oscar!!! Paula Abdul shines in her starring role in "Touched by Evil," a tragic tale of love, betrayal, rape and some more betrayal.
Paula plays the role of a sassy, brassy career girl with a penchant for shoulder-padded power suits. She's got it all, until she's brutally assaulted and raped by a masked man.
She survives, but now Paula has a new accessory for those power suits -- Fear.
Then she meets Jerry, played by some actor whose name I can't remember. He's a successful car detailer with a checkered past.
But for Paula, he seems like he's got everything to offer -- including a felony conviction! and three "rings"! -- and he could be the "one." But is he really what he seems? Hmm. I wonder.
Anyway, Paula -- who's as a good as solving mysteries as she is picking her men -- spends the next hour or so trying to figure out Jerry's secret. Plus, she's getting stalked by a guy who loves bad 80s tunes. Yikes! Nancy Drew, she ain't. But our gal Paula sure can chew the scenery. And I thought she was just a singer.
Straight up, now tell me, you're going to love this movie.
