Vajna, and written by Leora Barish and Henry Bean. The sequel to Basic Instinct (1992), it stars Sharon Stone, who reprises her role of the crime novelist Catherine Tramell, and David Morrissey. The film was an international co-production of German, British, American, and Spanish production companies. The film follows novelist and suspected serial killer Catherine Tramell, who is once again in trouble with the authorities, this time in London. Now Scotland Yard (Greater London's Metropolitan Police Service) appoints psychiatrist Dr. Michael Glass to evaluate her.
