Anyone see or hear of this film? Its a faith film. Its one of the worst films I have ever seen. I cant believe this movie exists. Its about a young woman who marries a horrible abusive man and the films basically says that she should know her place. I any sane film she would leave him or even get revenge on the abusive monster but in this film shes told to be submissive and pretty much just to take the horrible abuse.
Its beyond sick and disgusting. And not in the fun way. This is a film that abused women that are supposed to take to heart. How twisted is that?

The IMDb page suggests it is based off a true story.

The IMDb page suggests it is based off a true story. Which makes it even worse.

ALL THE KING'S HORSES (1977). Serving up spectacularly lousy advice for struggling married couples, this Mark IV Pictures Christian soap opera directed by Donald W. Thompson (who also helmed their hilarious End Times quartet, beginning with A THIEF IN THE NIGHT) was inspired by Jack and Karen Persson, an Iowa couple saved by their BFF, Jesus Christ. Produced and co-written by Russell S. Doughton, Jr., who associate-produced THE BLOB before finding his true calling in unabashedly wholesome films marketed to undiscriminating Evangelical audiences, this low-budget feature's sole objective is to refute the unthinkable sin of divorce, since all of your problems (even physical abuse!) will vanish if you simply pray to The Big Dude Upstairs for your spouse's salvation... When sweet, church-going Sandy (Dee Wallace, a year after THE HILLS HAVE EYES) becomes smitten with Jack Benson (EIGHT IS ENOUGH hunk Grant Goodeve), we know it means trouble. He races motorcycles! He chews gum! His hair is tussled! Worst of all, he doesn't go to church! Nevertheless, this mismatched pair are soon sharing a first kiss as fireworks literally go off, Jack asks Sandy to marry him and she agrees -- with the stipulation that he "give his heart to Christ" first. Of course, he half-heartedly concedes to her demand in order to end their chaste dating montage and finally get into her holier-than-thou pants. Cut to several years later, and the Bensons' middle-class home, two prop kids and constant bickering. Tiresomely judgmental Sandy is incensed when Jack takes her to "a tavern" (horrors!) and refuses to "quit cussin'g, while he blows his top if dinner isn't on the table the instant he gets home and gives Sandy a black eye during one of his tantrums. The script piles one overly-melodramatic 'crisis' onto another -- Sandy is fleetingly tempted by a flirtatious co-worker, Jack accuses her of being a slut, their children cry themselves to sleep, and taking a few sleeping pills sends fragile Sandy straight into a hospital mental ward! Making matters even worse, when Sandy admits to no longer loving Jack, her mother (Anne Bellamy) and local pastors instead urge her to follow the Bible, be a docile wife and "submit to your husband." Gee, thanks, mom!... Voted Best Picture by the "Academy of Christian Cinemagraphic Arts" and with Wallace winning Best Actress, the future E.T.-mom earnestly plays this shallow caricature of Christian innocence -- Sandy's in her mid-twenties but still wears her hair in child-like pigtails; doesn't drink or watch godless Hollywood movies; and is a hair-trigger-jealous, humorless prude. No surprise, Goodeve's cocky douchebag is far more amusing. Plus like so many Christian-targeted films of that era, it squeezes in a live sermon, this time featuring a hokey musical-revival by (future megachurch founder) Rev. Lowell Lundstrom. Well shot by the versatile Robert Caramico (BLACKENSTEIN, SLUMBER PARTY '57), with production design by Ray Storey (art director of SPIDER BABY), it's a strident slog through marital dysfunction, armed with a simplistic, religious magical-thinking mindset. www.shockcinemamagazine.com/allthekings.html

Making matters even worse, when Sandy admits to no longer loving Jack, her mother ( Anne Bellamy) and local pastors instead urge her to follow the Bible, be a docile wife and "submit to your husband." Gee, thanks, mom!... I consider myself to be the founder and president of the Anne Bellamy Fan Club. The Fan Club includes all those whose lives have been influenced by the acting career of Anne Bellamy. I might be the only member or perhaps there are thousands of Anne Bellamy fans. Either way, the club exists at least in a spiritual sense and it will continue to at least my dying breath. On the Perry Mason show, everybody knows that Barbara Hale played Della Street, the secretary of the famous attorney. Yet no one remembers the name of the secretary for private detective Paul Drake. Her name was Margo and she was played by Anne Bellamy. Margo got about 25 seconds of airtime in the genius episode The Case of Paul Drake's Dilemma (season 3, episode 6, 1959). Here's a summary: Paul’s life is at stake in this one, so Perry puts up quite a fight to clear his friend from a murder charge. The situation: After putting the pressure on Frank Thatcher to confess to a hit and run accident, Paul dukes it out with him, is popped, goes down for the count, and wakes up to find Thatcher dead. Ham Burger is reluctant to prosecute, Tragg is suspicious, but a confident Perry Mason jokes with Paul that the only doubts he has concern Paul’s ability to pay his bill.The character of murder victim Frank Thatcher is played by Bruce Gordon, best known as Frank Nitti on The Untouchables. Basil Ruysdael played a heartless family patriarch. I don't recall who was the "real" murderer but Perry exonerates Paul Drake. Perry talks to the Basil Ruysdael character and tells him what a shithead he is. Perry says that Paul Drake will soon pay his attorney fee by paying for a dinner. ![](https://www.perrymasontvseries.com/database/images/Gordon_e75.jpg) ![](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BYTM2OTI2ZTItZjUzNy00NGIwLWE5NmYtNmI1N2U5YmUyM2ViXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMzI5NDcxNzI@._V1_.jpg) ![](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/M/MV5BM2M1ZmY1MDMtNTVkZS00YzM5LTllNjUtMWY3N2I2ZThmNjJmXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyMzI5NDcxNzI@._V1_.jpg) ![]() ![](https://www.perrymasontvseries.com/database/images/Gordon_e75.jpg)

Misinterpretation of the Bible and religious scripture has been used by some as an excuse to oppress and abuse women, even to this day. Jesus Christ held women in equal status to men, and chose Mary Magdelene as his lead apostle. She had seniority over the others.

The brief appearance adds nothing to the story-line!" It turns out that Kay Elliot was on a third sci-fi (more or less) show. Here she was on Man From Uncle: ![](https://static.tvmaze.com/uploads/images/medium_portrait/33/84393.jpg)
