This actually started out as a decent thriller. But then it devolved into the typical Lifetime formulaic type of movie. I mean, c'mon, a room full of pictures of the bad guy's obsession? Really? Again? And we have the usual one naive character that doesn't see the problems right in front of them, and sticks around long past the time any normal person would have bolted. Then we have the quick ending, right after the last commercial, with a girl fight (really? Again?), and an aftermath that defied all logic. All straight from the Lifetime list of plot points that all their movies seem to require to be picked from. Too bad. I actually though we had something unique here for Lifetime. For about half an hour. But then the writing fell apart quickly. 4 stars only for the somewhat unique beginning.

Not Bad - Until the Ending
Ugh
Do I need to say anything else? The only reason that I am still writing is to satisfy the minimum length requirement to even leave a review. This movie was so bad that it caused physical pain in my joints
Captive Nanny? Or The Au Pair Nightmare?
Was almost identical to the movie The Au Pair Nightmare that came out a few weeks ago. Pretty much the same story line. Waste of my time!
