Deadly Relations (1993)

An ex-military man and attorney (Robert Urich) is a controlling father to his four daughters who adore him. But as the girls grow up and marry, he spirals out of control and kills their husbands for insurance payoffs. Based on the non fiction book DEADLY RELATIONS: A TRUE STORY OF MURDER IN A SUBURBAN FAMILY by Carol Donahue and Shirley Hall (the murderer's  daughters) and directed by Bill Condon (GODS AND MONSTERS). Real life crimes are often crazier and more shocking than their cinematic counterparts and this true tale of obsession and murder is a humdinger. Impossible to believe the father she adores is a murderer until he confesses to cold bloodedly killing her husband (Tony Higgins), one daughter (Gwyneth Paltrow) must take matters into her own hands and turn her father over to the law. It may be pulp but the horror of the situation keeps you compelled to watch. Fans of true crime stories should enjoy this one. With Shelley Fabares, Matthew Perry, Roxana Zal and Georgia Emelin.
