Has anyone seen this movie from the eighties starring Mary Steenburgern and Roddy McDowell?

Yes, its a GREAT thriller..!!

McDowell plays the comic relief in this one.. its a major part, too.. That's why I rented it.. I really got sucked in with the story.. Mucho suspenseful, TERRIFIC performances all around..

If you haven't seen it, I'd reccomend you check it out..

LOL.,. Mike. Its at Allan's on Elizabeth.. Luckily I got a copy at Nintendo World a little while ago..

Its about a starving Newyorker actress who gets an offer to play a small part in a movie, because she looks exactly like the actress, who mysteriously vanished throughout the picture..

So she goes upstate to finish filming and all hell breaks loose..!

its cool.

spoliers within this post damnit.



So I watched this last night.

Good movie.

Except for the scene where she trys to get her drivers license from the fire, that just pissed me off somehow. Still roddy mcdowell is badass.

Yeah, that tested my patience..

the ending sequence with the mistaken identities has me in SOO much suspense...

glad you liked it, Mike!
