MIDNIGHT VENDETTA 2000 (TUBI)

The title above is what I saw this movie called on Tubi.

It's also known as "Thy Neighbor's Wife" and "Poison".

A beautiful woman named Ann Stewart (Kari Wuhrer) is shocked when her husband Chris (Larry Poindexter) kills himself after a failure to get a much sought after job at the advertising firm he works at.

She blames his boss and the new woman they hired instead of her husband. First she kills Mr. Slider (Jay Richardson) and his girlfriend in a spectacular explosion at his home.

Ann then sets her sights on Nicole Garrett (Barbara Crampton) and her family by posing as a housekeeper after she kills the original housekeeper and stuffs her body in the family freezer.

She slowly poisons Nicole who is a diabetic, sexually seduces her husband Scott (Jeff Trachta) and her son David (Seth Jones), and makes Nicole's neglected daughter Darla (Melissa Stone) into a sexually provocative boy toy.

The family is slowly ripped apart and the ending is full of twists and turns that I found very well done. Poor Scott gets a sad fate he didn't really deserve, but Ann escapes free as a bird.

This is a very dark film and Jim Wynorski handles it very well as only he can. If you like beautiful women in films, twisted story lines and over the top everything else, you'll enjoy this little slice of erotic cinema.
