Synopsis
When little girls grow up, what will they be?
After a 17-year-old shoots his parents dead and then turns the gun on himself, an investigative reporter makes a disturbing discovery. The adopted boy was born to a mother who, as a teen, inexplicably murdered her parents as well. Even more alarming is the discovery that the dead boy has a twin, who may also be genetically predisposed to kill.

Review by nomenclature ★★★ Liked 3
The story is pretty sucky and predictable, but damn, the ending is an all-timer—watch this until the end if you don't care about the rest of the movie.
Review by Sophie Campbell ★★★
The lesson is: NEVER adopt a kid EVER because they'll have congenital insanity that compels them to murder their family and then kill themselves.
Review by Meyer ★★★
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Pocket squares BURST from Raquel Welch’s tailored greige vests as tension builds, foreshadowing the film’s explosive conclusion
Review by Madi Danger ★★★★ Liked
Mystery slasher that ended up better than I was expecting. I actually enjoyed the characters for both of the main girls as well
Review by Brian 🛸 ★★★½ Liked
Okay so this one is way out there, it’s complicated. Raquel Welch is an investigative reporter researching kids who murder their parents. She discovers that one of her subjects has a predetermined gene that programed him to kill his parents AND that he has a twin sister that’s been adopted. Now it’s up to her to find this twin before her gene like, triggers her to kill her adopted family!
Her investigation leads her to two girls who live across the street from each other, both adopted but only one with the ‘tainted blood’. One has a nice family with the mom from Wonder Years. The other has an unhinged nut job for a mom.. Joan Van Ark goes all…
Review by SeraphicWings ★★
I'm ruining my kids.
Review by Rock Hyrax
Total trash, built for maximum manipulation at the expense of any plausibly non-incriminating character reactions, and despite being essential about hereditary schizophrenia, they're at great pains to avoid mentioning genetics, or shizophrenia, or anything slightly scientific in favor of the titular "tainted blood." Also, not usually sympathetic to "how evil are your teenagers?" or "how evil are adopted children?" plotlines and this is both. Some peak made-for-tv hysteria in that climax, though.
Review by TheGothicAlice ★★★½
Tv movie melodrama aside, it’s better crafted in tension and character strength than expected— and all of Raquel Welch’s looks are so chic and fabulous I can’t get over it.

eu não esperava muito deste filme e acabei me surpreendendo… e muito!!
a história me prendeu bastante, apesar de, até um certo ponto, ser bem óbvia pra mim, mas, o plottwist vem no timing perfeito e me deixou chocada!! (achei que era uma pessoa, depois outra e boom! eu estava certa no começo!)
além disso, é sem dúvidas a melhor atuação da kerri green,simplesmente excelente! gostaria que ela estivesse em mais filmes assim; seu talento é mais do que visível aqui.
Review by SaltyCici ★★★½
