An interesting concept that works rather well. This film may have worked as a theatrical release because it's one of the better TV movies I have witnessed.
Christopher Reeve was well chosen to play the provoking and thoughtless Sean Farrell, who will stop at nothing to determine whether or not Megan Lambert is his long-lost wife.
I like Jaclyn Smith, but her performance in Nightmare in the Daylight is a little weak to start off with. It greatly improves later on though. But the dubbing of sound in some areas is particularly poor. However, considering Jaclyn was almost 45 years old when this film was recorded in 1992, she sure looks great!
In a nutshell, this film is good, with great twists, even if the ending was a little sudden. It does prove that TV movies are not always the badly prepared and melodramatic humdrum that some people believe they are.
