Vinegar Syndrome packs a MURDER WEAPON for DEADLY EMBRACE (review)

David De Coteau and Linnea Quigley take on the "erotic thriller" in this pair of 1989 films (not shot back to back but just looking that way due to the prolific output of the period).  In MURDER WOMAN, mob princess Dawn throws a hell of a party for her friend Amy when they get out of the mental hospital and invite all of their exes along with an uninvited killer who starts bumping them off one-by-one.  In DEADLY EMBRACE, pool boy Chris is seduced by lonely housewife Charlotte, and her obsession turns deadly when his actress girlfriend and her businessman husband enter the picture.  Jan Michael Vincent also stars.
