When Rachel says, "What is it? What does she have that has you and Mike so enchanted?", Peter replies, "I guess some people are just special." He starts walking toward the door but then turns around briefly and says, "I like her..." Right after Peter says that, he smiles right at the camera as if he is posing for a picture.

Straightforward Craven thriller is not bad - for a TV movie

Linda Blair is this film's main draw today, but Lee Purcell is the real star of the show: at first I wasn't too sure about her, but she has the mysteriously seductive presence that her role calls for, and her performance literally gets better by the minute. This may be a Wes Craven movie, but it is also a TV movie, so it is rather tame in terms of sexuality and violence; there are few real surprises and few real thrills until the last 15 minutes and the (long awaited) catfight between Blair and Purcell. With its "evil stranger is disrupting the life of a normal happy family" plot, you could say that this film was ahead of its time; thrillers of this type didn't become popular until the early 90's, with "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle" and others like it. But one look at Linda's hair will convince you that it was NOT ahead of its time in other areas. In short, rent it but don't buy it. (**)
