Play Misty For Me is credited with being the movie that paved the way for subsequent stalker movies featuring a psychotic female. As such, it is most often compared to Atracción fatal (1987) in which a man's brief fling results in his lover's attempts to scare and kill him and his family. Another movie with a plot similar to Play Misty For Me is Maliciosa (1995) in which a medical student stalks a baseball player when he returns to his previous girlfriend after a brief fling.
