...why was he obsessed with her? Why HER out of anyone else? She didn't even look like his wife. And his wife wasn't 16...so again. Why arbitrarily track down some random 16-year-old doing ballet...why not go for an adult woman who looked more like his wife.

Whatev. Considering that the whole plot was contingent on Reed being obsessed with her, it would have been nice if his stupid obsession made a little more sense.

The acting was laughably bad, especially the mom and daughter. The creeper was all right, I guess but...lol.

And, as if. We all know obsessed teacher creepers for the most part are not that hot.

ahaha my thoughts exactly. Sebastian Spence was almost too hot for this role. Probably the only reason I stuck around to watch it.

I thought she looked a good bit like his wife. But I agree, why chase a 16 yr. old?!
Why not find a woman instead of being a pedo lol?

"Didn't he discover America?"
"Penfold, shush."

You guys must be kidding that he was too "good-looking" to be a stalker. Looks have NOTHING to do with mental health!! Look at Jeffrey Dahmer - he was a very nice-looking guy. So was Ted Bundy, who raped, tortured and killed over 100 women. He was an extremely good-looking, "Boy-Next-Door" type - as well as being smart and charming.

Ted Bundy:
