107 minute feature film DVD starring Sharon Stone. Abusive husband Guy Baran is a marked man, for both his wimpy wife Mia, AND his icy mistress Nicole are conspiring to kill him. One night, they put their plan into effect, as they poison Guy, drown him in the bathtub, then dump his body into a mucky swimming pool.
But when the pool is later drained, Guy's body is not there. And a local detective is growing suspicious of Mia and Nicole.
So where is that body? Is someone else involved in Guy's death? Is one murderess trying to frame the other? Or is Guy still alive? In this remake of the French classic, the wife of an abusive school headmaster joins forces with his mistress to do away with him. However, something goes wrong, and the two begin to get the feeling that their victim may not really be dead. When a private investigator becomes involved, the thread begins to unravel.

Copyright 1996 Morgan Creek Productions, Inc. Diabolique Quotes/Excerpts: "Honey, if I couldn't get a man to leave her, I wouldn't kill him. I'd kill myself." -- Nicole (SHARON STONE), to Shirley (KATHY BATES), a detective who thinks Nicole might have killed Guy (CHAZZ PALMINTERI) because she couldn't have him for herself.
"Yeah, you're in heaven and I'm the Virgin Mary." -- Nicole (SHARON STONE) to Mia (ISABELLE ADJANI), after Mia faints and regains consciousness.
"Oh, come on -- you can't pull that off." -- Nicole (SHARON STONE), pulling an unlit cigarette out from the lips of Mia (ISABELLE ADJANI). Diabolique Reviews: "...The movie has fun with the usual whodunit details....DIABOLIQUE is so well constructed that even today it works on its intended level..."

Diabolique film
$21.45 Though HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN director Alfonso Cuaron still holds the crown for best film in the series, David Yates is making an attempt at a coup with HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE. Dark, gleefully funny, and beautifully shot, this adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s novel should please fans despite numerous changes to the 650-page source material. In this sixth film in the series, Harry’s (Daniel Radcliffe) inevitable confrontation with the dark wizard Voldemort grows closer, and Hogwarts headmaster Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) wants the young student to be prepared. He guides Harry through a memory of a young Voldemort, but an important moment is missing. Harry must extract this memory from the new Hogwarts teacher, Horace Slughorn (a perfectly slimy Jim Broadbent), who is as eager for fame as he is reluctant to revisit this painful moment. Meanwhile, romance rules the school of witches and wizards, ...

$7.75 Nicolas Cage stars as Jack Campbell, a career-driven workaholic who has everything: an exciting job, a Ferarri, a closetful of Zegna suits, and the attention of any woman he wants. His life changes when, after working a full day on Christmas Eve, he intervenes in a convenience store holdup. The apparent criminal, Cash (Cheadle), speaks to Jack in epigrams about his satisfaction with life. When Jack wakes up the next day, he's suddenly living in a New Jersey suburb, where he's married to his college sweetheart (Leoni) and is the father of two children. At first he is aghast, but Jack soon warms to his new life even though he knows that it cannot last. Unabashedly sentimental, the film is also a ...
