Why hasn't this film been rerun on cable (to the best of my knowledge) during the past 10 years? Although somewhat dated by today's standards, time has not silenced its powerful message, and it does a fine job of showing how the Jennifers of the world are most vulnerable to this kind of sick exploitation and abuse...indeed, VHS copies are equally hard to come by, but worth the often high prices they command just to see a TV movie that doesn't fall into the usual "cookie-cutter" subject formula and addresses such a controversial topic in a manner that really gets its point across. Def worth viewing, if you can find it!
