4.0 out of 5 stars Entertaining Drama/Thriller, June 19, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Praying Mantis [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Jane Seymour stars as "Linda Crandall", a charming, attractive widow who seems perfect in her new fiance's life, Don McAndrews (Barry Bostwick). But her "other side" reveals a self-destructive form of split-personality disorder. Apparently she was abused and tormented as a child by her alcoholic mother. She talks to herself in the mirror but actually believes she's talking to her mother. She even cuts herself with razor blades! Don's sister-in-law, Betty (Frances Fisher) dosen't trust Linda and knows she's hiding something. Meanwhile, Linda does everything in her power to keep other women away from her man, and even brutally murders a waitress who Linda believes was coming on to him. But when Betty see's Linda's picture on a Wanted by F.B.I TV show for marrying and then murdering her husbands, she snoops through Linda's things and discovers 5 gold wedding rings! This is where things take an intense turn into madness where Linda has a severe breakdown and smashes the mirror after discovering that Betty took the rings. Betty is in for a deadly payback. The intense, and scary plot will leave you biting you nails!

2.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable, July 4, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Praying Mantis [VHS] (VHS Tape)
The script takes Jane Seymour away from her usual role as "good guy" or sympathetic female.. who needs a hero to help her..The audience knows at the very beginning she is the "bad guy"..but her compelling performance of the "abused woman" keeps us in suspence to find out why this "black widow" is doing these murderous deeds.. A good suspence. but only 2 stars.. directing and editing gets a 1/2 star..

4.0 out of 5 stars One of Jane Seymour's best performances!, May 19, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Praying Mantis [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This movie has it all. Suspense,Drama,Comedy and most of all Jane Seymour! The usually sweet Jane is at her best here. Don't expect to see the old Doc Quinn here! Her character in this movie is one you wouldn't want to meet in an alley. You will have a ball watching ths one!
