THE WOMAN WHO SINNED is a typical TV movie thriller of the early 1990s which mixes and matches a few genre tropes. There's a psycho-thriller element in the tale of a disturbed maniac bumping off a few unfortunates, plus a wrongfully accused-style plotline in which an adulterous woman is accused of murdering her best friend. Truth be told, there's little here that hasn't been done better before, but THE WOMAN WHO SINNED plays out fast enough to never be boring. Susan Lucci makes for a fairly sympathetic protagonist while the supporting cast is bolstered by an endless number of familiar faces, with Tim Matheson playing the put-upon husband, Dick Miller and John Vernon as cops, Claudia Christian, and best of all Michael Dudikoff in a cast-against-type role.
