I Almost Married a Serial Killer

This is like all others lifetime channel movies which are about love and crime. Story is very interesting, and good ideas. But ending is too typical, with typical twists and based on typical extreme lucky survival. In fact we did not even see whole end here. It finished about 1 minute before we could expect, almost suddenly. What is most annoying here is too predictable events. I say congratulations for good story and huge acting effort (police, court, plastic surgery...), but the predictability and typicality make this movie not so much better than others similar. Better beginning, worse ending a bit. I am bit disappointed, expected at least better ending.

Really enjoyed this movie . It was very real . All the actors were so good , even though it was a little confusing , 2 things I didn't like were that if I were her , I would recognize his voice , and another thing is the ending was not what I was expecting .... but it was pretty good over all . Kept me in front of the TV for the whole 2 hours , I didn't even want to move ... nail biting !!! I actually enjoyed it very much '

That's all I want to know Why put a dog in the beginning And at the end With no resolution What happened to the dog? Left in the woods? Huh

Camile falls for a handsome charmer named Clement and her daughter dotes on him too. What could be wrong until Camile accidently walked into his secret room and discovered photos and news clippings of all the women he killed. There is one catch: Clement only kills women who are in love with him and willing to marry; it makes it that much more execiting (I guess). He lunged at her and missed and she escaped. The police nabbed Clement and he was sentenced to eight consec life sentences. Camile returned to her normal life but before long, news of Clement jail break forced Camile and daughter Violet to move - under witness protection. "They like to finish up their business , esp because you testified against him", the police tells Camile. Into a small town mother and daughter moved, under new identities. Here the plot makes a clever twist. Clement had plastic surgery to change his appearance and after surgery he finished off the doctor so no one knows. A chance encounter brough Camille new love interest in person of Bryan, who owns a ranch just outside of town. Bryan seems trust worthy and protective and is patient with Camille, who again is about to fall in love a second time. Will she repeat the diseaster consequence of the first love affair ? Well acted, there were genuine suspense and does hold me to my seat because thanks to good plot development and pacing, I care about what happens to Camille and Bryan. Overall 7 / 10.

Right, well for a TV movie then I will say that the 2019 movie "I Almost Married a Serial Killer" wasn't actually all that bad. I must admit that I had expected it to be less interesting and less enjoyable. I mean, the title of the movie just wasn't the best of choices for a movie. Sort of made it sound like a bad drama love novel.

Anyway, I sat down to watch the 2019 thriller without having heard about it or even knowing what it was about.

And it turned out that writer Naomi L. Selfman actually managed to produce a storyline and script that was interesting enough for sustaining the movie. Granted, it wasn't the most riveting of stories, but it was adequate enough for a single viewing.

It should be said that writer Naomi L. Selfman does attempt to throw the audience off track a couple of times throughout the course of the movie, and it worked to some extend. I was left wondering whom people were as the movie progressed, so on that account it worked out. But on the other hand, it made the movie unnecessarily cluttered and it felt like director Nadeem Soumah was stumbling about trying to make sense of the script as it was translated to the screen.

The acting in the movie was adequate, and actress Krista Allen carried the movie well enough with her performance. It was nice, though, to see Louis Mandylor in the movie, because he just always brings that gruffy charm with him, so he was well-cast for the movie.

Once you get past the movie's laughable title, then I will say that "I Almost Married a Serial Killer" is adequate enough entertaining for a single viewing. It wasn't an outstanding movie, nor was it a particularly memorable one. And chances are equal to zero of me sitting down to watch "I Almost Married a Serial Killer" a second time. The movie's plot and storyline just doesn't have the material and contents for more than a single viewing,

My rating of "I Almost Married a Serial Killer" lands on a mediocre five out of ten stars.
