authorb22 I recently watched this on MyLifetime.com (thank you, Lifetime!) and it was great! Alexandra Paul, William Moses, and Gabrielle Carteris shined in their roles in this movie.The basic plot of the movie is that Dr. Liz Manners (Paul) is a radio psychologist for a radio station that gives relationship advice. When she advises frequent caller Sara Jane (Sophie Gerdon) to leave her abusive, obsessive husband, Kyle Lundstrom (Moses), she tries to escape from him and is hit and killed by a car in the process. It is then that Kyle works his way into Liz's life and plots revenge against her, blaming her for destroying his marriage.The acting was fantastic and the story was extremely compelling. While there were a few plot holes, (the most obvious for me is how Kyle found Liz to begin with) the movie was very enjoyable and I recommend you watch it on Lifetime's website or buy it on DVD if you can.Also, this isn't a complaint or compliment; just something I noticed. At one point, Gabrielle Carteris' character looks up Kyle Lundstrom in the police database and says "I knew it" when she finds him. At first, I thought that meant she was Sara Jane's sister (the one she mentioned during some of her calls to Dr. Manners). But that isn't the case. Just wanted to share that.
guilfisher-1 Sorry, I'm with those who do not like this film. First off it has two of my least favorite actors in it. An actress with a face like a horse, Sonya Salamaa, who was as awful in that soap about the next door neighbor out to get the couple who rented their guest house to her. I didn't like her then and was happy to see her mug get slapped around by William Moses in this one. Secondly that lip suction actress, Sophie Gendron. Like Angelina Jolie it looks as though she has her lips blown up. Not at all attractive and making them look like they have buck teeth. Fortunately she's not in the film that much. In fact both of them have more or less cameos. That leaves Alexandra Paul and Gary Hudson who along with Moses are good to look at. Unfortunately they don't have much to work with in this script. Too bad.
sol **SPOILERS** Far out revenge movie involving radio talk show personally Liz Manners, Alexandra Paul, known to her millions of loyal listeners as "Doctor Liz" the on the air, like Dr. Laura, psychiatrist. Dr. Liz has been helping one of her callers Sara Jane, Sophie Genron,to get away from her abusive husband Kyle Lundstorm, William R.Moses, who's a grad triple A control freak. Catching Sara Jane on the phone with Dr. Liz Kyle, coming home unexpectedly, goes bananas chasing his wife out on the street, outside the Lyndstrum mansion, where she's killed by an unsuspecting motorists.Burning with uncountable rage over his wife as well as "soul-mates" untimely death Kyle is determined to get even with Dr. Liz if it's the last thing he ever does. Kyle not only sets out to destroy Dr. Liz's career and marriage but murder both her and her weak-kneed and emotionally crippled husband Rob,Gary Hudson, as well. Kyle's master plan is to murder Rob and them, after making it look like Dr. Liz did it, murder Liz and make it look like a suicide.Using the name of just plain James Kyle gets in touch with Rob in him being interested in investing in a hedge fund that he manages. It's then when Kyle/James gets to Dr. Liz in him telling her that he's very interested in donating as much as $100,000.00 in her pet project the Hope Sanctuary. It's the Hope Sanctuary that Dr. Liz was trying to get Kyle's battered and abused wife Sara Jane into before he showed up and drove her, by running blindly into a speeding car, to her death.***SPOILERS FROM THIS POINT ON***The movie gets even, in how you want to look at it, better in Kyle getting a high class hooker Ashley, Sonya Salomaa, to strike up a relationship, which wasn't that difficult, with Rob who in turn, together with Kyle, blackmails him. It's then that Kyle pulls his ace out of his sleeve in bugging the Manners house and recording a conversation where Dr. Liz admits that she withheld evidence that a caller of her actually let her abusive husband, like Kyle, die from injuries after pushing him down a flight of stairs! At the woman trail Dr. Liz, who knew the truth, told the court that the woman's' husband, who was attacking her at the time, fell and cracked is skull on the base of the stairwell and died instantly. Having already did enough to make any vengeful psycho satisfied Kyle goes a step even farther, or crazier, in planning to murder Rob and have Dr. Liz, whom he plans to implicate in Rob's murder, then kill herself with him, not Dr. Liz, doing the killing.Even though the plot is totally unbelievable the acting, especially by William R. Moses, more then makes up for it. Moses as Kyle Lundstrom is so caught up with his vengeance that he comes across more comical then anything else. The guy just can't control his emotions and is so unstable that you wonder why a trained psychiatrist like Dr. Liz, much less anyone else who runs into that fruitcake, can't see or notice that.Rob for his part is having trouble at work as well as his marriage with his hedge fund going belly up and leaving him totally dependent on his wife's Dr. Liz income to survive. This cause the once proud and successful investment broker to feel like a total failure and make him susceptible to Kyle's manipulating him with hookers and promises of investing in his business ventures. The only thing that Rob got out of his relationship with Kyle was a bullet in the gut and left, with Kyle gleefully looking on, to slowly bleed to death.P.S Both actors Alexandra Paul and William R. Moses were reunited in "A Lover's Revenge" after 16 years since staring , as private investigator Ken Malansky and his cute but nutty girlfriend Amy Hastings, in the new Perry Mason TV mystery movies. It's just too bad that Paul & Moses had to be reunited under such unfriendly circumstances here in "A Lover's Revenge" where instead of working together were out to do each other in.
KenMalansky Billy Moses, Alexandra Paul, Gary Hudson, and the rest of the cast do a wonderful job in this *on the edge of your seat* psycho thriller made for LIFETIME channel. Billy does a wonderful job playing the psycho out to do in the radio psychologist,(Alexandra Paul), for the accidental death of his wife. His character has no boundaries to what he's willing to do to get even with her. All of the actors in this movie really put a lot of emotion into their characters and although the end was sort of predictable,(the evil one always dies in the end), the storyline kept you wondering in between the beginning and the end. I was completely captivated the entire time the movie was on and I definitely recommend watching this incredible movie!
