WHO KILLED THE JUDGE?

"VERDICT IN BLOOD is one of four Canadian made for TV movies in the Joanne Kilbourn mysteries. Wendy Crewson does a solid job as Joanne, a former cop who is now working as a tv correspondent. An old friend, a judge (Sally Kellerman) is murdered in her home, the apparent victim of a burglary gone wrong. Kilbourne joins her new beau detective (Shawn Doyle) to investigate the killing. There are plenty of suspects: an ex-con (Robert Davi) who is running a halfway house for kids; the victim's two daughters; a blackmailing lawyer; and a local kid that Kellerman provided shelter for. These movies are entertaining in a MURDER SHE WROTE kind of way. Cerebral, with little violence and heavy plotting. I first saw A KILLING SPRING, and enjoyed it immensely too. If you're tired of plotless special effects gory movies, the Joanne Kilbourne series is well worth your time."
Good movie watch

"If you're in the mood just to have a night at the movies in your house, this was a very good movie. I saw it on Lifetime and decided to have it in my library."
