Production

[edit]

The fact that Fisher, an already extremely famous actress at the time, accepted to play in this low-budget film has attracted considerable attention.[1] The film's working title was 'Dead and Married'.[2]

Release and reception

[edit]

A retrospective very negative review recalls the release history of the film: "This anemic comedy, which bore the more descriptive working title 'Dead and Married', played Miami cinemas in the summer of 1989 before sailing into the Bermuda Triangle of lost films. The video-releasing company, folded, and She's Back languished in limbo until LIVE Home Video brought it out on tape in late 1991."[3] Another review finds that She's Back is a black comedy and that it is "(u)neven, but occasionally funny."[4]
