Stalked by My Doctor: A Sleepwalker's Nightmare

Not as good as other installments of this series, but still better than many Hollywood blockbuster movies that play mind games and require intense concentration to try to follow the plot, which is often unfollowable. At least Lifetime is just laying out for you and it's pure entertainment as you sip your favorite beverage.

Eric Roberts is right on as usual in this role. I have one more show in this series to go and I'm looking forward to it!

ABOUT MY REVIEWS:

I do not include a synopsis of the film/show -- you can get that anywhere and that does not constitute a meaningful review -- but rather my thoughts and feelings on the film that hopefully will be informative to you in deciding whether to invest 90-180 minutes of your life on it.

My scale: 1-5 decreasing degrees of "terrible", with 5 being "mediocre" 6- OK. Generally held my interest OR had reasonable cast and/or cinematography, might watch it again 7 - Good. My default rating for a movie I liked enough to watch again, but didn't rise to the upper echelons 8- Very good. Would watch again and recommend to others 9- Outstanding. Would watch over and over; top 10% of my ratings 10 - A classic. (Less than 2% receive this rating). For Lifetime Movies for Chicks (LMFC), drop the above scale by 3 notches. A 6 is excellent and 7 almost unattainable.

I am not disappointed by this 4th sequel of Stalked by My Doctor. There is all in one: comedy, thriller, drama, mystery. There are all funny and interesting things I expected to see again: lie, revenge, love, justice, jokes, pranks. Fun to watch, and not boring even for a moment. Hope to see more sequels. Also liked psych ward reality, which from my experience looks exactly like in real life. Showing us how easy it is to mess with somebody's life or be in the wrong place or experience injustice. That part is similar to Unsane (2018) movie. Only did not like the ending which is a more negative than in previous 3 sequels for the main character doctor. There I expected mystery instead of typical arrest like in most movies.

Not literally, of course. But c'mon, these "Stalked by My Doctor" movies are pretty much the same as the "Sharknado" movies. By which I mean over-the-top acting, with absurd plots (even by Lifetime standards), to be taken tongue-in-cheek, not seriously.

Eric Roberts seems to enjoy himself as he chews the scenery as the evil doctor with the split personality. Everyone else tries to keep a straight face as they play their ridiculous and stereotypical roles. I doubt if the girl who played "Katie" will be using this in her portfolio to try to get other jobs, just as one example.

These movies are kind of fun, not to be taken seriously. Not that many Lifetime movies should be, but these least of all.

So, why 7 stars? Just because you can put your brain on hold for 2 hours and let the silliness distract you for a while.

I know these Stalked by my Doctor movies are over the top, unrealistic, plot holes everywhere you look, and the same basic premise in all 4 (the original and 3 sequels - so far) of them, but by gosh, they're just quirky enough, with just enough cleverly-written comic relief (the wise-cracking alter ego: "At least this one's old enough to drive.."), and with the consistently excellent tour de force performances by one of my all time favorites (Eric Roberts), to be thoroughly enjoyable (which, for me, is rare being as picky as I am).

It's delightfully obvious that Roberts is having as much fun playing the 'sick-brained' (Nicky Bismar hallucination, ha!) but brilliant doctor as we are watching him. I only wish they would keep making sequels but they've just about worn the original premise thin at this point, unfortunately!

I can't believe it took me over a year to finally see this after it came out, but better late than never. I was already pre-judging it before seeing it, thinking it would be lame and unoriginal in dialogue and characters since that's how sequels usually are after the first two or three, but thankfully I was wrong. I rarely, if ever, rate anything 8 - much less 9 - but this fourth installment of Stalked by my Doctor more than deserves it. Kudos to the writers too!

9 out of 10 / Grade B+

One of the worst movies I've ever seen. The thinking of this movie was intriguing, but the delivery was kinda sick. I think the killing part was unnecessary, I don't even understand why that happened.
