Tell Tale Hearts(1992)

Tell Tale Hearts is a psychological thriller about a child murderer released from prison after 17 years. Anthony Steadman's freedom sets off a collision course with Sally McCann, a mother still haunted by her missing child from the original crime spree. Becky Wilson, an ambitious local radio reporter, also pursues Steadman—drawn not just by the story, but by personal demons the case resurrects. As both women close in on him, their separate obsessions threaten to unravel. The film explores how unsolved trauma and the hunger for justice can consume those left behind, blurring the line between investigation and revenge. Steadman's release becomes a catalyst that forces three fractured lives into dangerous proximity, each carrying their own version of the truth.
