A Sister's Nightmare (2013)
Pretty Predictable
Shelley Gillen, the writer of A Sister's Nightmare, also wrote A Mother's Nightmare and A Daughter's Nightmare. A Sister's Nightmare is probably the worst of these three. It is about a pair of sisters, one is insane and just came out of a mental hospital, and the relatively sane for a Lifetime movie. The "twist" ending was not much of a surprise for me being that I guessed it half way through the movie. The acting in the movie was decent. The editing was as good as any other Lifetime movie. Overall, if you like Lifetime movies this is an average one. I recommend A Daughter's Nightmare or A Mother's Nightmare instead of this.
A Daughter's Nightmare (2014)
Pretty Good... For a Lifetime Movie
This is definitely one of the best lifetime movies I have ever seen. The basic plot is about a teenage girl, Ariel (played by Emily Osment), whose life is turned upside down by her mother's new boyfriend poisoning her mother with wellness tea. Most Lifetime movies star third-rate actors, poor editing and a bad script. This definitely follows the lifetime formula however, Paul Johansson really makes this movie great. Unlike most Lifetime actors, Johansson is able to act as a believable boyfriend while being the perfect amount of creepy. The concept of wellness tea also makes this movie better than others. This is one of the most unusual ways of death that I have ever seen in a lifetime movie. A Daughter's Nightmare is my family's favorite movie and definitely worth watching.
