Marilu Henner stars as a stalking victim in this made-for-TV movie based on a true story. Henner stars as Nancy Conn, a woman who becomes the obsession of stalker Richard Mark Ellard (Doug Savant). After she and her cousin are targeted by Ellard, both are savagely attacked and left for dead. Conn survives, Ellard is jailed, and over time Conn slowly puts her life back together and begins to heal physically and mentally. Astonishingly though, Ellard comes up for early parole and Conn makes it her mission to keep Ellard locked up for his crimes. ~ Bernadette McCallion, Rovi

CIA computer technician John Savage seeks revenge for the terrorist killing of his girlfriend. Threatening to make public his insider's information, Savage forces his reluctant bosses to train him in the art of assassination. He then heads into enemy territory (at least, it was enemy territory back in 1982) on a search-and-destroy mission. There is nothing in The Amateur that we haven't seen elsewhere, but Savage and a solid cast of supporting players Christopher Plummer,Marthe Keller, Arthur Hill, Ed Lauter, Nicholas Campbell, Jan Rubes et. al.-- keep the proceedings lively. Robert Littell co-adapted the film's screenplay from his own novel. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

American Nightmare would seem to have been inspired by the 1979 George C. Scott feature Hardcore. In that film, Scott was a midwesterner who discovered that his beloved daughter was appearing in X-rated movies. In Nightmare, we find young Lawrence S. Day in search of his sister Lora Staley. His odyssey takes him into the seamiest recesses of the porn and prostitution scenes in the Big City. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

This true tale of the Canadian North, set at the turn-of-the-century, chronicles the courage of four Royal Canadian Mounties caught in a disastrous dog-sled expedition in the Northwest Territory. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Created by Herb Roland, the Canadian continuing drama House of Pride utilized the resources of virtually all the major CBC production facilities. The stories revolved around the landed-gentry Pride family of London, Ontario, headed by patriarch Don Pride (George Waite). Inasmuch as the various younger Prides had left the nest and found spouses of different races and religions throughout the Dominion, there was a certain degree of inner conflict, but things were more or less smoothed out after Don Pride's death and the inevitable return to London of the various Pride factions (including the family's offshot Quebecian clan, the Fortins). The individual episodes were produced in Toronto, Montreal, Hallifax, Winnipeg, and Vancouver, with a different cast and crew in every city. Seen variously on Thursdays and Sundays, House of Pride aired from September 19, 1974 to March 13, 1975, and from October 23, 1975 to May 15, 1976. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi
