The Cult

A tell on lousier-than-usual Lifetime movies is that they have multiple titles. This one was shown on 10/09/21 as "My Daughter's Double Life". The only reason I gave it a 6 is that the acting was pretty good, however maddeningly the story went. But despite decent acting there is such a thing as just too plain stupid.

Alivea Disney-Lafavor is truly a great actress , playing Mariah! I was like ooh she's not nice, then ....and so believable!❤ She really got into character and really shined. Look forward to seeing her again!

Well, that was a kind of cool time-waster. Another pic with many unfamiliar names, but the tale is decent enough, and the surprise does truly surprise. There are of course some plot holes, and I wouldn't have minded a little more follow-up resolution, but...whatever. Lifetime movie fans will have a bit of fun here.

This tv crap is a festival of bad acting in itself. I just can't take it anymore, there not one decent movie out there in the past two years at least. Is all a compilation of bad and terrible movies. Even past good actors have gone sideways and is like someone stole their acting capabilities...aliens have taken over in the movie industry.

*** Saw it as "My Daughter's Double Life" ***

This did not come across as your regular LMN feature, and the plot seemed to be inspired by Alfred Hitchcock! Also, some parts of the movie reminded me of the classic "Gaslight".

And again, the weird twist at the end really surprised me. (Another thing that surprised me was that the mother and daughter actually looked the appropriate age!)

I don't know what title you will see it under, as "Fatal Following" and "The Cult" appear to be others, but it's worth a look.

7/10.
