How it feels

A young newlywed starts to suspect that her husband has a dark side. She uncovers evidence that the charming man she married may be dangerous and not who he claims to be.

What happens

The Stranger Beside Me is a 1995 American made-for-television drama film directed by Sandor Stern and starring Tiffani Amber Thiessen as a young newlywed who suspects her charming husband (Eric Close) is not as charming or innocent as he seems. Though the film shares a title with a book about Ted Bundy (and the book's 2003 film adaptation), it is not based on that book nor inspired by the serial killer. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
