Amor de Obsessão

Both Abe and I who are true film experts, and we have come to the consensus that this is the best work Tori has ever done. Hopefully she will be free to work on the sequels we are co-writing in the future: Mother may I sleep with Danger Part 2: Tandora's Box and Mother may I sleep with Danger Part 3: Like Booty for Chocolate. We hope to have them air on ABC next fall, so be on the look out. We give this 4 stars ****, because she proved that even someone like MARY could act....

Thank goodness for a father with lots of money who happens to be an influential producer in the make believe world of entertainment. It works well if one happens to be Tori Spelling, an ambitious young woman, who could be better off spending her idle hours around Rodeo Drive shopping and doing lunch with the rich and famous in all those ritzy places nearby.

With this new appearance Ms. Spelling assures herself a niche in the stratosphere of camp. One has to give it to the girl, she gets to wear all those cute outfits while in the throes of love and betrayal. "Mother, May I Sleep in Danger" could be subtitled as "The Tori Show". Let's hope we are spared of another masterpiece starring Ms. Spelling in the near future, but alas, that's probably impossible, because in her ambition for bigger and better things, she probably will keep turning up in vehicles such as this one forever.

I watched this movie today. Just as I was almost ready to find something of even mid-grade quality, this movie kept me watching it, primarily to see how much more ridiculous it would evolve.

Tori Spelling is undeniably unbelievable in every part of the movie. Ivan Sergei is a laugh at best. After about ten minutes into this film I looked at my friend and said, "You or I could seriously act as well as these two actors", and thats pretty painful since neither of us could act worth a lick.

Overall, the story was predictable from start to finish. The characters acted as robots. If you haven't seen this movie, SPARE YOURSELF! It's that bad.

and go from there. Is this a comedy?. Apparently.

If you had a really bad day at work, you may want to watch this as it is so unrealistic it will have you laughing. Of course, Tori Spelling and Ivan Sergei (recently in "The Break Up") have laughed all the way to the bank, why shouldn't we?.

Ivan Sergei is a young obsessive man who resents college students, and cannot handle being dumped, so he retaliates and murders the first girlfriend who dumps him. He assumes a young med students identity and meets Laurel (Tori Spelling) who is, (according to this film ) every man's dream. Perfect, athletic intelligent and industrious too. (I told you you would be laughing!).

Also, Lisa Banes (the embarrassingly older woman from "Cocktail" who was dumped by a young Tom Cruise) portrays Laurel's mother, who has no money but drives a Jaguar, and buys take-out catered food so she can meet Laurels' boyfriends. Ah, only in Hollywood. She suspects something is wrong with Sergei, but can't pinpoint the problem.

Eventually she suspects something is amiss with the Sergei character, so she visits the Denver police, who disclose any and all pertinent information (Yeah, okay....). Meanwhile, back on campus, Laurel is abducted by Sergei, who cannot bear to be apart from her for one minute. He brings her to an isolated cabin where much wine is consumed.

Next pivotal plot line:... Voila....somehow through the use of a Triple A membership, Laurel's mother finds her, as she was abducted by the obsessive and psychotic boyfriend (Sergei), and the mother was right all along.

Sorry to be facetious, but I will have to look up the screenplay for this, I think whoever wrote this was having a nice joke on us all. Seriously, if you are at home alone with the flu, this movie will give you a laugh, so it may be something you can tolerate for an hour or so.

With this movie, the girl-stalked-by-obsessive-boyfriend genre seem to be filled, together with _No One Would Tell (1996) (TV)_ (qv). It would have been interesting to know why Billy Jones acted the way he did, a deeper answer than that he is simply crazy. Tori Spelling does another one of her blonde-in-danger roles.
