Dan August: The Jealousy Factor is an interesting slice of late 70s crime drama. The tone is pretty gritty, reflecting the murky depths of human emotion and the chaos of love gone wrong. The pacing sometimes drags, but that almost adds to the feeling of inevitable doom as the detective delves into these love triangles. You get a real sense of the jealousy and betrayal that drives people to murder. Performances are solid, with a mix of rawness and subtlety that draws you in. It's not flashy, but the practical effects are effective enough to keep you engaged, lending a certain realism to the gruesome aspects. There's a certain charm in its imperfections, a time capsule of storytelling from an era where TV movies were exploring darker themes.
