"A Kiss to Die for" is a mixture of "Three Faces of Eve", "Marnie" and "Basic Instinct".A psychology professor (Tim Matheson) is saved from jumping off the Train by a sexy woman (Mimi Rogers). He tried to commit suicide. Afterwards they make love on board the train.A classy prostitute, calling herself "Bedroom Eyes", shoots her customers to death. Her face is not seen, so the question is whether the woman on the Train and "Bedroom Eyes" are the same person."A Kiss to Die for" is categorized as a "romantic thriller", with the emphasis on the former. I am not really a fan of romantic films.I can reveal so much that Rogers' character suffers from multiple personality disorder. She has been abused by her father as a little girl.The film had been better if her two personalities had been the opposites of each other. Her "normal" personality is also unchaste (She makes love on a train with a stranger she just met). This weakens the story. Tippi Hedren's character in "Marnie" was frigid. Joanne Woodward's characters in "The Three Faces of Eve" were different, only one of them was flirtatious.I don't know why the script writer decided to make her two personalities so similar.Mimi Rogers is a very good choice as the female character. She has a crazy look in her eyes. Mimi is sexy, inviting and sensitive. It is easy to see why Matheson's character is tempted by her.

The movie is not perfect. Typical commercial movie - a kind of horror. But I would advise to watch it because of Mimi Rogers. In my opinion she is the best "femme fatale" actress in Hollywood. She is probably the most attractive victim of american cinematography. Her dying glimpses and heartbreaking despair are really impressive. She played a similar role one year later in "Killer".
