Appointment for a Killing

ALMOST LIKE A ROOT CANAL
APPOINTMENT FOR A KILLING is another one of those early 90s tv movies that gave tv stars a chance to "stretch" their wings and try something different from their current series. Too bad they didn't put a little more life into their portrayals. Based on "true" incident, the movie follows the psychotic crimes of dentist Corbin Bernsen who has been offing people for about twenty years. He is currently married to Markie Post (who appears to be on Sominex), and has a sleazy mistress (Suzanne Barnes, over the top indeed) and an ex-con sidekick (Don Swayze in a wasted character). He confesses his latest crime to Markie and she goes to the FBI (a stoic Kelsey Grammer) who uses her to get a confession out of Bernsen. Corbin's real life mom (YOUNG AND RESTLESS's indefatigable Jeanne Cooper) also appears. There's little suspense and a very wimpy climax.

Very good movie
I have so many dvd movies and show's that I turned off my cable. There are day's when I miss watching Lifetime movie network. So I love that I bought this movie, which is a movie that I've seen on Lifetime. It is about a Joyce who is married to a dentist named Stan. She thought her marriage was good, but after walking in on her husband sleeping with a patient she finds out Stan has killed people. Not for money but for the thrill. If you are a Lifetime fan you will enjoy this movie.
