This is so crazy !! The way the company handled it pissed me off and when she told the lady about Richard, she had the nerve to say she might’ve given him some flirtatious signals. The lady asking her if she always smiled at people the way she does. So it’s her fault she is attractive like ?! When it got worse, the lady wanted to protect Richard’s security and offer them both counseling, like her why ?! And when the lady found out about how Richard became a member in her aerobics class, she told Laura to take a break from it because it will create an “awkward situation”. Saying the clothes !! 😳😤
Blame women for everything..it's WAY EASIER THAT WAY. what do you expect to actually take action and put the 'toxic' men's at place by executing consequences and ACTUAL lose for them or/and having a record for the disgusting evil acts they did - despite no provocation or harm done to them directly or intentionally OR ANY WHICH WAY AT ALL.
With all the women in power these days (to being Presidents to head of various institutions) How little general good is done still for the safety and uplifting of women who go through this. Talking to them *directly* and not from a assumptions that 'the victim is the culprits' - is just the tiny tiny step towards betterment on the subject of stalking and harrasment
The film called stalking laura that came out in 1993 is about a man’s obsession with a female colleague turns dangerous after she rejects his advances; based on a true story.
The events, particularly the shooting, occurred on February 16, 1988
I just saw this movie today, I didn't see that office shooting coming
Same here!! When I found out it was a true story, I looked into it and couldn’t believe it. 😳
Laura was beautiful and I feel bad for her
Agreed. Outrageous behaviour.
Wow, that was heavy and quite tragic. That HR person sounds like she should have been working for the Lifetime Movie Network Police, aka useless.
Totally!!! Incredible that that happened, even back then!! She probably went on to be the Chief of the ULPD!! 😂
Great to see my fellow Brits doing reviews on these films
thanks saj - who doesn't love made for TV stalker movies?
The way these HR people handled it was atrocious. They're more worried about protecting the COMPANY. Never mind the fact that the company could be facing a huge lawsuit for doing nothing in the event something happens. While they did eventually fire him, they did so for the wrong reasons (performance issues) because they thought it would be better for him.
Agreed!
Offer counseling to Richard. As if that was going to do any good. _Counseling?_ Hah! _(4/15/2023)_
Ludicrous decision!!
Goodnight John Boy.
Quite a versatile actor.
This is a film about a stalker and is based on a true story
I don't want, seeing as this was real, but it's too ridiculous to not laugh.
Man death row should be 5-10 years max. It isnt like he's still working an his appeal.
Agreed. That system is ridiculous.
I was wondering if the authorities have forgotten about him. He must’ve used up the last of his appeals years ago.
@@gezzarandomI believe they're going to let him die in prison. He's still on death row, and he is now 75, so the only way he'll come out is in a coffin.
It’s fairly common for death row inmates sentences to be reconfigured into life in prison, plus California has turned off the death penalty process, meaning all convicts are now for life in prison.
Gone 38 years.
I tell so many people about this movie. It started Sexual Harassment policies at work
Sometimes you still.cant speak up cause it doesnt matter
This is my favorite stalker movie. I've been hooked on it since I first viewed it on CBS in 1993. Richard Thomas played Richard Farley very well. He got scarier until he went off his rocker and killed those people and held the building hostage for five whole hours. Sick and CRAZY! Every bit as crazy as the real Richard Farley! _(4/9/2023)_
Agreed, he was great in this. He nails going from office creep tp total nutjob.
When I first watched this, I had no idea it was based on real events. Did NOT see that psychotic ending coming!
The real life Richard was/is way creepier than the young quirky actor portraying him in this film.
Actually, the HR department's condescension is believable for this time period. These days at the office, men have to stand 30 feet away from women, keep their heads down, and hold their breaths to keep from being accused of something and having their reputations ruined. Humanity can master time travel, but reasonable balance is beyond our understanding ❤
Totally agree. Although I think these events happened in the late 80s (and I’m the Bay Area) where I’d assume this sort of HR response was already considered draconian.
I think this actor does a great job as a creep..but yeah, from the photos of seen, the real one takes the cake.
Y cuántos años tuvieron que aguantar las mujeres., porque era normal todo lo que hacían los hombres, sobre todo abuso de poder, "las mujeres no pueden ser acosadas no se tocan independiente como se vistan.
No podría estar más de acuerdo. Gracias por ver.
This movie turns my stomach. If you have someone like this somewhere in the world? If for any reason you're unable to go to the cops? Shut down any social platforms down, keep them SHUT DOWN DON'T GO BACK EVER! Be selective with people both publicly and privately. Depending on how bad things are? I wouldn't date. If you have Christian values? Uphold them. This guy scares the hell out of me!!!! I never want to watch this movie again, I don't plan on it!! Don't belittle them, don't tell anyone about it if you don't have to just try to move on.
👏🏼👏🏼
I would say so👏👏You don't run towards situations like this, run away from them👏
@gigi57807 agreed!!
@@JayHarangueagreed, I couldn't Agree more actually!!
7:54 : 😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣 _(9/17/2023)_
She seriously looked decent to be married for
That's not Laura, it's Brooke ! A stalker's first mistake, stalking the wrong person. Which would also make a great film.
😂😂
That wasn’t so bad, got something of the Terminator I police station shootout scene
Assuming you mean the film…yeah it was ok. The guy does such a good job of playing the unhinged stalker.
@@JayHarangue yeah the movie of course. Didn’t mean to say something uncalled for something where people died… they all did a good job acting wise, I’d say, and giving the background on the East Coast accent in California
@@matiasdimaggio5734 Sorry - I didn't think for a second you were saying "that wasn't so bad" about the incident. 😂
I meant the movie as opposed to the video.
@@JayHarangue ahaha, no worries, yeah both was great though. Actually this was the best movie you reviewed from what I’ve seen 😂 I wouldn’t even call it trash… after this it’s that Minka Kelly Roomate movie which is total shit, just on a high budget
@matiasdimaggio5734 yeah, I enjoyed The Roommate! 😂
I first thought Richard Thomas was a little too nice to play a psychopath but he did so well.
He DID!! That creepy stare!! 👀
I’ve only seen it once and I don’t want to watch it again. I kept thinking about it the next day, I couldn’t even concentrate in my college classes!!
Yeah, I didn’t know the story when I watched it and couldn’t believe how dark it got at the end.
As a man, I accept that a woman rejects my feelings, but I do not accept that she belittles me, especially in front of people, as happened in the real story (not the movie). The man’s revenge in this incident was for his dignity, not because she did not accept it.
Wait, are you seriously blaming her for him killing people? Even if she did belittle him that did not give him the right to hurt her or anyone else. He constantly harassed her and stalked her. If there were any incidents of her "belittling" him it's probably because she got sick and tired of him not leaving her alone. Every action he took was completely on his own. She didn't make him do anything. Richard Farley is the only person to blame for his actions.
@@ladynekochan He is a criminal by all standards, and I think he is psychologically disturbed. I was saying that it is not permissible for a woman to make someone’s love for her a reason to mock him and belittle , because she may encounter an abnormal person who commits foolish things. I believe that if she had treated him with kindness and some respect for his feelings, perhaps this painful crime could have been avoided. As for me (as a personal opinion), which I expressed in my response, I would certainly accept any woman’s rejection of my feelings towards her, as this is her right, but it is difficult to accept her belittlement of me and my feelings, especially in front of people, as happened in the real story of this film.
Are you justifying the stalker?
@@abbyjohnson7863 No, I'm saying that some women give emotionally abnormal people an excuse for violence by treating their emotional feelings with disdain and sarcasm.
That’s interesting . There is always two sides to a story but stalking was very wrong .
It's the 80s, sack him 😂
There were no RULES back then! 😂
@@JayHarangue 🤣 👍
Wow had never heard about this story.... gotta love the 80s, I imagine police back then are the inspiration for the ULPD lmao 🤣
Oh 100%!! Never even thought about that. It’s been a long time since I did this one.
