pretty good

I quite enjoyed this one. Stoddard did an excellent job as the psycho unhinged killer. The rest of the cast were also good. The story-line was good.

So it is about an assistant DA (Darcey) who is going back to her family home for the weekend to meet her sister Brea's fiancé Thomas. From the first encounter, Darcey feels something is not right with Thomas.

She starts digging by asking her assistant to run a background check on him. Nothing comes up but digging deeper reveals that a Thomas with two different last names was married twice and both wives were killed in accidental deaths, and in both cases as the insurance money was paid he disappeared.

When Darcey tells the family about her suspicion they all get angry at her and she leaves and goes back home, where Thomas is sitting on a chair with a gun waiting for her. After she shoots her on her arm he confesses to her about the reasons why he is doing this, which I won't say because I had given far too many spoilers already.

Suffice to say I liked this Lifetime movie too. Lindsay Hartley who is also a Lifetime regular has turned out to be a good director and producer. I have noticed the movies she has directed the background music is pretty decent and this one did not disappoint me either.

One final note. I thought the ending was a bit of a let down, the happy ending turned into three dots in other words the guy who works for Darcey's dad turned out to be psycho Tommy's brother, and Darcey went all googly eye on him.

The movie should have ended with one year later a family in the garden chatting and laughing eating and drinking shot.
