Also at this party is his wife Darcy, their daughter Petra (Kristen Connolly), her fiancé Vince Dorne (Will Rogers) and their son Donnie (Theo Stockman). He does taxes and he's one of the best that works for Bill Gaines (Mike O'Malley). The synopsis here is after 25 years of a good marriage, what will Darcy (Joan Allen) do once she discovers her husband's sinister secret? We start this movie at a party where Bob Anderson (Anthony LaPaglia) is given an award. The first time I've watched it though was on Prime when my girlfriend Jaime as she thought it sounded good and I never pass up a chance to see a movie she's interested in. This was a film that I picked up on DVD a couple years after it came out as I remember reading the short story from King and really liking it. Overall, Stephen King once again proves that reality is the most terrifying thing of all. Other than that I have to say this is worth seeing. The only real downside to this is that it had the feel of a made for TV movie. Especially knowing that if you are married to a serial killer will the police really believe you had no idea what was going on? Like any good King story this one keeps on on edge and you aren't sure if what you are seeing is real or imagined. This one is terrifying because the killer could be someone you know and if that's the case how would you deal with it. There is not a crazed killer in a mask attacking people at random, nor are there people being dismembered just for effect. An ordinary loving couple that seem perfect at first but then a dangerous secret is discovered and everything changes. The reason that Stephen King is known as the master of horror is because the things he writes about are realistic enough for you to think this could happen to me. Coming to grips with the fact that her perfect husband is an evil being she isn't sure how to react. What she finds is the missing ID for a woman that was recently killed by a serial killer.

When Bob is gone on business Darcy begins looking around for her stashes of chocolate. 'She knew nothing.' Darcy (Allen) and Bob (LaPaglia) have been married for 25 years and are extremely happy.
