Saw this a long time ago, now I want it on dvd

I saw this on cable around the time it originally aired. I know it's a cheesy, by the numbers, cliche ridden story, but hey, I'm feeling nostalgic. I'm surprised someone, namely the studio that produced this movie, hasn't tried to market the Mark Wahlberg celebrity out of this one for all they could get. I might have a thing for Amanda Donohoe too. Oops. She's a naughty teacher and needs to be spanked. In conclusion, this movie made me want to have carnal relations with Donohoe. Let's be honest. And for the one person who will read this post in the next year, I suspect you shares my sentiments, or at least alternate Marky Mark if you're a chick.

Inevitable mind's abyss

Amanda is excellent in this role of Laura Ellington. I would not want to cross her. The black hair, the pale complexion, the blood red lips - she could be Morticia Addams sister! I thought Marky Mark was kinda lame in this movie, all he showed was his muscles and he played up on his masculinity. Dont get me wrong, he's a good actor but this was really just showing his muscles. I'm suprised there wasn't a sex scene with him in it. I'm a guy and wouldnt wanna see that, lol.Maybe you would 666 and all the rest of the girls. lol

Anyway, Amanda will always be Laura Ellington for me.

GO AMANDA!!!you shove that cat in the oven!!
