"Why are all of Elizabeth Montgomery's films not on DVD (or VHS for that matter)? Amos was the only Liz movie ever put on VHS (how about the DVD, Sony?). What about Legend Of Lizzie Borden, A Case Of Rape, Second Sight: A Love Story or Between The Darkness And The Dawn, to name a few??? All of these films were released on VHS in the UK, why not here? I'll never understand how such a beloved star's work is almost impossible to come by. Sins Of The Mother is a good one. The quality of the DVD is pretty good (can't complain at that low price). Only flaw is a long blackout between one scene (a commercial break obviously). Sins Of The Mother gives Elizabeth the opportunity to play a real nasty role. Dale Midkiff is also very good as a tormented, almost pitiful rapist. Let's hope this is a sign that someone out there realizes IT'S TIME TO PUT ALL OF ELIZABETH MONTGOMERY'S FILMS ON dvd! Her fans want more!!!! PS- The DVD-- A Killing Affiar sold on Amazon is not her film-- it's another film with the same title (with Peter Weller)."
This is great news!

"Hopefully MPI will continue to release TV Movies that feature our beloved Elizabeth Montgomery. I would love to see "The Legend of Lizzie Borden" next in the line :)"

"I purchased this DVD recently. I was pleasantly surprised to find one of Elizabeth Montgomery's films on DVD at all! I enjoyed this movie a lot. Elizabeth Montgomery does a wonderfully evil turn as Ruth Cole, an overbearing mother. Her son is no peach either!! Wonderful to see "Samantha Stevens" doing serious acting as well as her comedic turn on "Bewtiched". I agree with the last reviewer who mentioned "The Legend of Lizzie Borden" as a most wanted title on DVD. Along with "Lizzie Borden" please accept my nomination for "A Case of Rape" as another possible new title from MPI Home Video.

"Sins of the Mother is a great movie starring the always fabulous Elizabeth Montgomery. Her manipulation of her son is spell binding. I recommend this movie to everyone, especially Elizabeth Montgomery fans. Now, if the powers that be would only release onto DVD "The Legend of Lizzie Borden!""
Elizabeth at her bitchy BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Am I the only one out there who sometimes finds the movies made for TV way better than the the "films" produced for theatrical release? This one is one of the BEST! Elizabeth Montgomery (one of my favorites) stars in this TRUE story about a serial rapist (who happens to be her son) As the plot thickens - we see WHY Kevin got to be like he was - (protrayed to a T by Dale Midkiff - I like him too) He was a monster to be sure- but he managed to bring such a vulnerability to his character! (A view that would be lost on his victims to be sure) His girlfriend Jenny tried in vain to understand him and to help him but of course, she has no idea of the man she is sharing a bed with! I don't know how much dramatic license was taken with the actual relationship between the real mother and son - but this movie was so compelling and very entertaining!"
