Tall, Dark and Deadly (1995 TV Movie)

You CAN judge this one by it's cover... guess who's the psycho?

[6 November 2002]

Jack Scalia turns up again in this cruddy TV movie. Looks like he's trying to grow old gracefully! This TV movie looks cheap and it's been done time & time before. Fatal Attraction has a lot to answer for! The only good things about this late-night nonsense is the opening sequence, which has a young lady being dropped from a apartment building and the camera going around her body in slow motion as she falls. A neat trick and quite beautiful (until she smashes full pelt into a car roof that is). The other good thing is Kim Delaney who deserves better than this and in my opinion is a very under-rated actress who also radiates beauty. But then what do I know... This one gets a 3/10 on the ShoonScale, Delaney bumps it up from a 2. Shoong

Riders (1993 TV Movie)

The horses wern't the only studs in this one...

[6 November 2002]

This was shown on ITV when I was about 14. Not a lot to see or hear on this one, a lot of humping and the lead character (can't remember who exactly) seemed to just bone around all day with countless upper crust women. Being only 14 at the time it was just a question of waiting for the next bit of raunchiness to come along. See those duff Friday night movies on Five? This is a distant relative with a bit more storyline!
