Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was director Ruben Preuss's only theatrical feature; he spent his career in television, which explains the 'TV movie but make it R-rated' energy.
Released straight-to-video in most markets, Write to Kill exemplifies the early 90s 'erotic thriller' boom that died with Basic Instinct's imitators—though this one barely qualifies as erotic.
