Definitely a "Lifetime" movie...

Melodramatic, exaggerated storyline and shallow, stereotypical characters. It probably sounded good on paper as a plot, and then all the angsty relationship stuff took over. Too bad -- a waste of Jacki Weaver's talents.

I could have done without the cruel spider scene.

Overall, it definitely came across as a "Lifetime" movie, is that's your thing.

I thought it was much better than the typical Lifetime movie. Don't you dislike the same movie time after time with the same plot?

Man or woman is cheating, someone is killed and someone lives happily ever after or is in a mental hospital.

I found this movie a nice change from the normal.

It was originally a indie film that premiered in LA and NYC. It was not made specifically for Lifetime.
