Films are not equipped much clunkier than”Deadly Illusions,” an Unconvincing mishmash of psychodrama and sensual thriller full of silly plot holes, obvious dialogue, and risibly bad reactions and actions.
Supposedly bestselling author who, carrying out a lengthy hiatus, is coerced during the book world having a megabucks offer from her needy writer. Mary is resistant – something about strange things happening to her when she writes.
