There is a perfect description of Sadie Williams by another character in "A Party to Die For": Sadie is a "liar, poser, and desperate wannabe." After her cousin Briana gives Sadie a wonderful opportunity to work in a chic New Jersey boutique, Sadie abuses the trust placed in her and runs up over $10,000 on Briana's tab.
In addition to being a pathological liar, Sadie is gullible in allowing Jessica Davis to take over her life and lead her into a world of crime. The character of Jessica was not so much a study in evil, but rather a cardboard cut-out of a villain. Her reaction to the death of poor Justin Caruso was sadistic and was made even more unappealing when she was enjoying her breakfast with his dead body in the room.
This film included some of the most preposterous scenes imaginable in character development and narrative. It was a stretch to believe that the police would enlist Sadie in a sting operation. Sadie's stabbing of the kind Owen Hunt was not only a shocking moment, but also an unconvincing one when he simply shrugged off his wound as he was being carted into an ambulance.
Sadie's father, Greg Williams, was a career criminal with a rap sheet a mile long. In another far-fetched moment, we learn that she learned from her dad how to inflict a "non-fatal" wound with a knife. Greg may have taught his daughter well. But the closing scene gave no genuine appearance that Sadie had learned anything from her many mistakes.
