Lust for Murder AKA The Wrong Student is a dismal Lifetime movie. Madeline (Evanne Friedmann) is an unstable high school student who is obsessed with her muscular soccer coach. However when people get in the way of the object of her affections, she resorts to murder. The actress playing Madeline looks too old to be still at school. The acting is below par, the story is predictable.

Is this really based on a true story as claimed? It might well be based on "Fatal Attraction", "Single White Female" or at a push "The Hand That Rocks The Cradle", although it isn't anywhere near as good. This time we have a psycho-bitch in a gymslip, well, a soccer kit. To call it predictable doesn't do it justice because there is never any doubt about who is the villainness or what she is planning, and the ending is inevitable. All that and only one murder. Seriously, give this one a miss unless you are a man and so vain you believe an obsessed teenager really could kill for you.

This film is filled with preposterous scenarios that simply have no basis in reality. You have to go way beyond a willing suspension of disbelief to watch this one. It's not clear whether the dialogue is so poorly written or the acting is that bad, but all of the conversation is stilted and plastic; nobody behaves like a real person. Combine that with ridiculous scenes, like the one where the teenage girl is holding a little knife on a guy and he asks her is she is going to still kill him. She says no, then yes and stabs him. The guy is way bigger and stronger than the girl and could have fought her off with one arm; yet he acts helpless as if there's nothing he can do. It's a three inch knife, not a 9 mm gun!! Geez, who writes this stuff?
