 Dear ABC Family,

Sleeping With the Enemy is not some cheery romantic comedy, as you portray it in your previews.  It is about a woman who fakes her own death to escape an abusive husband, starts a new life and finds a new love, only to have her husband track down down stalk them, and eventually attack them.  I pity the people who tune in to your station who are not familiar with the movie and expect a cute romantic comedy, which your previews indicate it is.

Thank You,

Me

Well...if you know nothing about the plot, I can see how you would assume it's one of those "neighbors who don't get along but eventually fall in love" plots...our knowledge of the plot makes the title seem darker than the words themselves are.

But yeah, The preview is all her and the new BF meeting and hugging and kissing.

I mean, it's not that the movie itself shouldn't be shown-spousal abuse is something that should get more attention, especially from the perspective of the abused breaking free, as opposed to the normal outside "savior"-it's the truly horrendous advertising.
