Directed by Linda Suttle.

A complex psychological thriller
"...satisfying menace and mystification..." -- NY Post
-- from the first blood-curdling scream to the chilling climax.

Lisa DeCaro plays heiress Elaine Wheeler, who sees (or believes she sees) the body of a dead man in the window across the way. Andy Anderson plays her husband, John Wheeler, who, believing his wife is on the verge of a breakdown calls in psychiatrist Dr. Tracy Lake, played by Michele Wright. Kathleen Davis stars as Helga, the nosy housemaid. Janelle Christie plays the alluring Blanche Cooke, Bob Leggett is cast as the nerdy neighbor, Curtis Appleby, and Karl Atkinson plays Sam Hoke. Russell Dale plays Lt. Walker, the cynical police, and his side kick, Officer Vanelli, is played by Sean Maslow.
