Quotes:
Charlie Deegan: There are two basic kinds of flies. Those who sponge liquid food from some surface, and those that pierce an animal's skin to suck the blood. Actually, they have a lot in common with people, especially people who are in love... but love can sour, and that's when they turn to me. moreFAQ

"Dead in the Water" plays like a fine episode of "Columbo". Right from the start we know the murder's identity, and the fun is watching the guilty party's perfect murder slowly unravel. The acting by all is very good, and the deliberate pace lends itself to strong character development. Since none of the characters is likable, and their motives all self serving, the intermingled black humor is quite welcome. Special mention must be made of the musical score, and opening credits sequence, which are both top notch. You could do far worse for an evenings entertainment than "Dead in the Water. I recommend taking a look at this one. - MERK
