"Striking Poses" has to be one of my very favorite Shannen Doherty movies because it's highly dramatic, fast moving and not one of those typical women's ludicrous bio-TV movies. I just saw this movie the other day on LMN and surprisingly I never heard of it before recently. But I knew it would be great because anything with Shannen always is! "Striking Poses" is also different because it's not exactly a TV movie. It's one of those straight-to-video films that Shannen tended to make during the late 90's. You can tell because Gage (Shannen) used the "f" word at least once during it.
Anyway this is a story of a photographer, Gage who starts getting stalked. It actually was pretty frightening and fierce in some scenes because Shannen was able to capture the essence of her character's turmoil. It was written all over her face. After being scared the night before by a burglar (or a potential stalker?,) the movie starts out with Gage sneaking inside a health club to take some pictures of a celebrity. Personally, I did not like the scene with the "actress" and the drugs because looking at someone doing drugs is in my book just as offensive as hardcore porn or violence. Once Gage got her pictures she runs out, only to find that she's being followed! While on the phone (who knew they had handless cell phones in the 90's!) with her assistant Casey (Tamara Gorski) she is instructed to take the back exit (her assistant apparently had some inside view of the club) and got away from him with only seconds to spare!
Pretty soon Gage hires a security guy to take care of her, Joseph Griffin played Nick Angel. And he sets up an elaborate-looking security system and tried to help put Gage's fears at ease. The rest of the movie is pretty fast moving and somewhat unpredictable. The ending scene in the studio was so over the top because it was just so extreme. When Gage set the place on fire and her stalker was engulfed in flames I couldn't help but think that this was something Bren would have loved to do to Kelly Taylor for stealing Dylan. The question is who's the mouse and who's the cat...?

yep the only reason i bothered to watch this movie was the fact that shannen is in, i love mostly everything she is in, i also agree with what another person said, charmed completely SUCKED after shannen left! i dont watch 90210 so i cant comment there. Anyway onto this movie, Shannen plays Gage Sullivan a papparazi who is being stalked by a dangerous killer. She calls on the help of a bodyguard and from here on things get complicated. This is a pretty good movie, many twists and turns and it is almost impossible to predict the ending. Shannen gives a GREAT performance as per usual. Definetly above average.

This is an auesome movie. She plays a photographer. So when someone starts following her and taking her picture things get deadly. Anyone who likes a good drama is in for a treat.

Yes, I'm an unabashedly, unapologetic die-hard fan of Shannen Doherty. She's gorgeous, and she can ACT. Let's get real, okay? 90210 sucked after she left, and Charmed has followed suit. This movie (which I got a Best Buy for $5.99 on DVD) is a starring vehicle for Shannen. She plays a tabloid journalist on whom the tables get turned, as she becomes the victim of a stalking psycho. Throw in a sexy, but dangerous, bodyguard; a kooky best friend, and some bumbling FBI agents, and you have a packed thriller that's not too violent, vrey unpredictable and FULL OF SHANNEN! BUY BUY BUY!
