When Melanie (Rachael Blake) goes home from the pub with the best looking man in the room (Sam Neill), she's captivated by his charm and attentiveness. He sails her away to this "castle" - a rundown shack on a deserted island. But as his passion becomes obsession and romance turns to rage, Melanie realises that she has been kidnapped. Torn between fear and desire, Melanie must escape her schizophrenic suitor. A moment of panic leads to murder and madness. Melanie's time is running out, but for her perfect stranger, it may already be too late.

Fun in the New Zealand wilderness. Perfect strangers is an adult thriller that twists your head around in all sorts of directions. It's good.
