There is another movie from around this time (the 80's) that I can't seem to remember but fits in this category. A woman marries a man who is not what he seems. I think they may move to Florida or something. He takes pictures of here. She goes swimming in a lake and there is an alligator in it. Instead of showing concern and helping he laughs and takes pictures. In there new house she is putting up wallpaper or something and a large spider like a tarantula in crawling by her and again he just takes pictures. He sits in the attic and looks at the photos. She leaves and makes threats, something about firecrackers in here eyes. Years later he is stalking her and is caught with the exact things in his suitcast he said he would torture her with. What is this movie. It was make for tv. Maybe even a true story. Help?

Burning Bed w/Farrah Fawcett is probably what you're thinking of. That's another extremely hard to watch movie.

The movie you're referring to is called Deadly Intentions. I came into the room while my mom was watching it, and she told me about it. It was released in 1991.

Don't mean to nitpick, but according to the imdb files "Deadly Intentions" is a 1985 movie. I realize it might seem trivial, but when searching for info it often helps to have the proper release year - I know it surely helps me.

I've a lil piece of advice for trolls: Remove head from sphincter - THEN TYPE!!!!!

That was a true story, I read the book before they released the movie. His name was Charles Raynor, I think that is how it was spelled and he was a doctor. She was Greek and very close to her family. They had a son and he wanted custody of him. It's a pretty good book and delves into the story a lot more. They also did a sequel and he did the same thing to his next wife. Hope that helps.
