That happens sometimes--Holly's name wasn't listed til a few days ago here!

I just watched this movie today and I must say, I'm very impressed with Traci Lords performance. I have never really liked her movie performances. they always seem forced or weak, but here she got it just right. I'm looking forward to her future performances.

A guess from pretty much nowhere would be that LIFETIME may not have wanted her name associated with one of their movies. Given Lords past movie history, many people probably would have avoided this movie because she was in it.

Another guess is that she would have had to be paid union wages if she was listed... she has been in a lot of movies, and that tends to raise the minimum pay for any actor.

She might have been doing the movie as a favor to someone.
That does happen sometimes. One example is the comedy DROP DEAD FRED with Phoebe Cates and Carrie Fisher. Phoebe was/is friends with Bridget Fonda. Fonda was on the set the day it was filming a 'blond in l.b.d. and high heels' on the arm of Phoebe Cates's character's cheating husband. The bit-part actress for that part was a no-show, and Fonda picked it up, without credit, and she did have a few lines; and her legs are on the back cover of the DVD.
