WHISPERS IN THE DARK (R) Haven't we had enough of Annabella Sciorra's drab earnestness? In this preposterous thriller, she plays a lonely Manhattan psychiatrist who learns that her new beau (Jamey Sheridan) may also be the boyfriend of one of her patients (Deborah Unger), a hot blond who describes, in lascivious detail, their death-trip sex games. Watching Sciorra play a woman who seems to be putting herself in peril out of her own dim-witted neediness isn't thrilling, it's a pain. Yet Whispers in the Dark is so insistently trashy, its plot coincidences jammed together like pieces in a badly assembled Tinkertoy, that the movie sometimes has a camp appeal. C-
