A married man has a brief affair, but when he tries to end the relationship, the obsessive and unstable woman refuses to leave him or his family alone. This trashy but entertaining erotic thriller became a massive hit and its mad woman premise clearly influenced the likes of Single White Female and The Hand That Rocks the Cradle. The original ending was reshot to please the bloodthirsty audience.
