Touted as Fatal Attraction for the 1990s, this well-directed thrille (by Curtis Hanson) also features a blonde sociopath, except that the terror in of the family in this yarn is from within....read the complete Hand That Rocks the Cradle, The (1992) review at EmanuelLevy.com (Emanuel Levy)

Director Curtis Hanson has made some excellent thrillers - Bad Influence (1989), L.A. Confidential (1997) and Wonder Boys (2000) for instance - but this is one film on his resume that heavily disappoints. It was one of a host of conservative...read the complete Hand That Rocks the Cradle, The (1992) review at SF, Horror and Fantasy Film Review

"The Hand That Rocks The Cradle" first hit theatres in January, 1992 and was immediately a boxoffice hit, staying at #1 for over two weeks. It was one of those Hollywood films that made people talk about how important it was for people to do a thorough ...

In this classic psycho-thriller, an impossibly beautiful Rebecca De Mornay pursues an ingenious plan of revenge. After her doctor husband commits suicide after being accused of sexually abusing a patient, his gorgeous wife (De Mornay) plots revenge. ...

The Hand That Rocks the Cradle is all about Rebecca De Mornay in what I consider her best role and performance to date. What makes her character all the more scary is not only the fact she is beautiful but because she behaves so cool, calm and collected ...

What a stunningly creepy movie this is. I still love it after all this time and go back to it every now and then to re-creep myself out. It always gives me chills. Rebecca does a good job at playing the evil nanny Peyton - almost like the role was ...

The Hand That Rocks the Cradle is one creepy film but I enjoyed it. Rebecca de Mornay plays a manipulative and revenge-seeking nanny. I am kinda surprised this thriller is directed by Curtis Hanson, doesn't seem like his type of movie. I won't give away ...

Rebecca is good in it and pretty, and the little girl is the cutest, most adorable personality of a child actor I've ever seen. She is SO innocent. She is just ADORABLE. ...

I am so fond of Rebecca! I have collected all of her movies and it seems that Rebecca plays all the movies that she is a "evil" inside her body just like this movie. I first heard about Rebecca was when I first watched this movie and I asked my parents ...

I loved this movie. It is very suspenseful and has very surprising twists and turns. Each character is well developed and stays in character throughout. My husband loves it, too. It is not a chick-flick. Exceptional. ...
