Snakkle Catches Up with the Stars of Fatal Attraction, 25 Years Later
Yes, it really has been 25 years since we first learned the fear that is bunnies plus boiling water. In 1987, director Adrian Lyne took one philandering Michael Douglas, mixed in a psychotic Glenn Close, and gave us Fatal Attraction, a film that likely scared more philanderers into monogamy than an outbreak of herpes on a college campus. The film was a huge box-office success, grossing over $320 million and garnering six Academy Award nominations. Snakkle catches up with the stars of the film to find out what they are up to today.

Ellen Foley in Fatal Attraction—1987
As family sidekick Hildy, Ellen Foley was the supportive friend to the beleaguered Gallaghers. (And someone Glenn Close’s Alex could have used in her corner.) A star of Broadway, Foley is also well known for her singer career and frequent collaborations with The Clash and Meat Loaf. She is, in fact, the female singer on Meat Loaf’s instant classic “Paradise by the Dashboard Light.”
