Tender Loving Care is an interactive movie originally released on August 12, 1998 by Aftermath Media.[1][2] It is a psychological thriller starring Michael Esposito, Beth Tegarden, and John Hurt as Dr. Turner.[3] It was written and directed by David Wheeler and produced by Rob Landeros, who also designed the interactive features.[4] The game was originally produced with the intention of releasing the game under the Trilobyte label, but Landeros was fired from the company before it was released.[5] Tender Loving Care was later released under Landeros's new company, Aftermath Media, on CD-ROM, with the option for users to watch the movie as a feature-length film as opposed to interacting with the game.[6] In October 2012 the game was re-released under the Trilobyte Games label on the Apple iOS platform.[7] The game is based on the 1984 novel of the same name by Andrew Neiderman.[8]
