Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

The loss of a loved one is never easy. The loss of a spouse can be especially hard. Widow is a chilling tale of one woman's struggle to come to terms with her husbands "accidental" death. This however, is no easy chore what with visions of her husband haunting her dreams and all. Vivian's late husband is trying to tell her something but will she be able to piece together the puzzling dreams to put an end to her grief?The bonds of a loving sister can help at a time like this. But when the relationship is strained it can be as difficult to refuse her assistance as it is to accept her sage advice. Like it or not sissy is only here to help her move on with her life.In true Big Biting Pig fashion the tale is told in a way that grabs your attention and will not let go until it is good and ready. Widow is a bit of a head-scratcher as this puzzle is laid on the table, but as the pieces start to fall into place the mystery - oddly enough - just seems to grow. Cindy Maples gives a gripping performance as the grief stricken Widow. Kim Welsh brings her "A" game as supportive sissy. Steve Hudgins performs brilliantly as the ever-ready handy man. Add to these, the talented supportive cast and a musical soundtrack with legs of its own and you have all the makings of a psychological thrill ride that would say "PJ Woodside did this" even without those awesome credits.Oh yeah, I recommend it!
