Genre: Drama
Director: Larry Elikann
Cast: Loni Anderson, Michele Lee, Stephanie Zimbalist, Charles(2) Frank, Michael Gross, Ben Gazzara, Doris Roberts, Ann Sothern, James Staley, Stephen Shellen
A remake of the excellent 1949 film wasn't necessary, but one has to fill up TV time, doesn't one? At least Ann Sothern, who was one of the wives in that version, makes an appearance here. The story? Three wives receive letters informing them that a friend has run off with her husband. But which one's husband is it? 1 User Review

| | My Favorite | Racy 01/11/2007 | | I loved this movie and still have fond memories of watching it. I bought the original but prefer to watch Loni Anderson. I wished they sold DVD's of this movie. Since it was shown on TV I haven't seen it rerun for years but I look for it every week in the TV guide. Great love story. |

Director: Adam Grossman
Cast: Michael Gross, Alexis Arquette, Hilary Swank, Bojesse Christopher, Glen Beaudin, Jennifer Elise Cox, Jennifer Aspen, William Morgan Sheppard, Michael Malota, Gabriel Dell Jr.
Rather than a sequel, this is a poor re-write of the original film.

His return has caused them "reappear" to get him. Carnage abounds during his attempts to stop them as they prepare to sacrifice his daughter.
