Review of Whisper Kill

Whisper Kill (1988 TV Movie)
Boring thriller laced with fake sexual interludes
31 March 2001
I watched this knowing who the killer was throughout the whole film. I suppose the director was counting on distracting us with Joe Penny and Loni Anderson's sexual chemistry.

Something went really wrong in the lab. I've seen canines in better heat than this. It's hurtful and insulting to assume that we as viewers wouldn't have more intellegence to figure out who did what and when. All the clues are presented to us in an orderly fashion and even my limited IQ was able to pentrate this nefarious plot which was really no more than a low brow version of a Poirot story. I won't disclose the killer..I don't have to. Watch the film for a minute and you'll know. I also know that the person it is, is in no way the person it possibly could be. The dialogue is bad, the acting mediocre, lighting is barf and the script is hurl. I watched it purely for scum intertainment. It barely suceeded as that. It's not that I detest this film, I just hate the fact that it stole an hour and a half of my life without a chill or polt intrigue to show for it. I like bad movies and I don't need SFT3000 or whatever it's called to watch it. But I require an allegiance either way, and Whisper has nothing. Whisperkill is the Switzerland of bad movies. It won't be bad and definately not good.

And after all Joe Penny is Jake, and you gotta love the guy.
