We saw the eminently forgettable Tin Men (1987). That made a splash when it came out, but it doesn't speak to me. It was better than The Summer House (1993), which had some inexplicable stuff going on. That was alright, but something missing. Maybe I'll read the book by Alice Thomas Ellis. I actually preferred the made-for-TV Dead Gorgeous (2002), even though it was pretty predicatable (there's got to be a new expression for the surprise ending that's no surprise), and the title doesn't make a lot of sense. This was based on Peter Lovesey's novel On the Edge, which I think I will read. Maybe I should also read Strangers on a Train, which it imitates.
