YOU'VE BEEN WARNED

Ilyana Kadushin's portrayal of nanny and wannabe-New York-photographer Kristin Burns is tedious--as disjointed as the four murderous nightmares that plague her. Kadushin's depiction of Kristin, nanny to Michael and Penley Turnbull by day and mistress to their father at night, is read in dull, flat tones without nuance. Kristin's discussions with dead people are also rendered in an unsatisfying monotone. Kadushin's portrayal of Kristin's fear as she finds she is unable to wake up from her recurring nightmares lacks credibilty. Overall, Kadushin's delivery demonstrates everything an audio performance should not be. G.D.W. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: AUGUST 2008]
