The Bridesmaid - 1989

A young man who fears violence falls in love with a woman who loves it. She asks him to prove his love...by killing!
Philip Wardman had more than just the ordinary squeamishness where death was concerned. Yet he could hardly avoid the suspicious disappearance of his sister's friend Rebecca Neave, especially when everyone was ascribing the cause to murder. Philip's feminine ideal is the statue of the Roman goddess Flora in his mother's garden. His marble Flora doesn't fade, doesn't alter, doesn't die. But then he meets Senta Pelham, a beautiful, sensual, childlike actress who flagrantly disdains the morals of society and passionately desires the elusive Philip. But what is the real reason for her obsessive devotion? Most important, will their flesh-and-blood relationship require a murder to prove it is the real thing?

Going Wrong - 1990

Of course she'll marry him in the end - he's been calling her every day for years and buying her lunch every Saturday. Then Leonora tells him she's engaged to some intellectual. But Guy knows she's being brainwashed by her family and friends - from her snobbish brother and her mother with pointy silver fingernails to her so-superior feminist roommate. Leonora and he belong together...If he can't have her, he'll die - or someone else will.
