Besides the obligatory psycho stalker that must be a central figure in 98% of lifetime movies, this movie was also graced with a cast of dull witted people who have zero ability to think on their feet or even a fleeting sense of self preservation. Well, except for the villainess who seemed to get all the cunning, more luck than anyone should have in a lifetime (no pun intended) and nerves of steel.
Besides killing their dog and keeping his collar as, I guess, a trophy of the crime - she buys the house across the street from him, buys out the diner from underneath his business partner (we are talking a highschool student) and somehow gets someone to falsify the deed to make it look like the hapless teacher did it, accuses him of molestation, kills his wife and then is all tearful & "thank god you saved me" when the cops shoot him dead. I don't really blame her for the cops killing him because if you aim a gun at a bystander, refuse to drop it and then turn to half point it at the cops - you're gonna get shot. That one was on him.
When you watch a stupid evil stalker in a bad movie like this, the least you should get is some small iota of justice at the end. None here. And it wasn't fun or camp, like movies that are ok fine even with an everyone dies & evil wins ending. This one just plain sucked and it's a couple hours of your life wasted.
