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.
