Another Emmy worthy performance by Liz Montgomery playing

Another Emmy worthy performance by Liz Montgomery playing a witch of a mother to Dale Midkiff. Her constant belittling of him turns him into a rapist. The best scenes are with Liz. And at 58 years old here she looks stunning. Great supporting cast Talia Balsam etc.

Decent true life story

A man dominated by his overbearing mother becomes a serial rapist. Based on a true story this explores the relationship between the rapist and his mother. Despite the unpleasant story line this manages to hold your attention throughout. The crimes themselves are committed off screen. Although the script is possibly a bit too straightforward the cast do a fine job. Elizabeth Montgomery is superb as the spiteful mother and Dale Midkiff is good as her son. Good support is given by Heather Fairfield as Midkiff's unsuspecting girlfriend. Although it's predictable it's still interesting to see Midkiff's life unravel as his crimes start to catch up with him. As far a true life made for TV movies go this is pretty good and is worth watching.

Elizabeth Montgomery and Dale Midkiff are WONDERFUL

Not one of Elizabeth Montgomery's best films, but she delivers a wonderfully evil performance. Dale Midkiff is also great as the almost pitiful rapist. Both actors have been in better movies, but they still make this one well worth watching. The twisted relationship between mother and son alone makes for an interesting film. The fact that it was based on a true story makes it all the more frightening. I enjoyed it very much. Fans of Liz and Dale won't be disappointed. What lacks in the script is more than compensated by these two gifted performers. Ignore the negative comments here. We miss you Liz! Why are there not more EM films on VHS or DVD. At least this film is available now. Hopefully more to come! Lets get A CASE OF RAPE and LEGEND OF LIZZIE BORDEN on DVD!
