Stalked by a Reality Star (2018 TV Movie)
Lifetime movies are terrible for the wrong reasons

Warning: Spoilers
Gonna go ahead and mark this just in case I include spoilers.

I used to watch Lifetime movies on lazy weekends in college and they used to be so much better. They hadn't reached the level of man-hating that they are now and while they followed a template, they were decent. Nowadays? These stories are too stupid and the characters are as well. At least the old movies didn't have the benefit of technology or social media.

This guy is supposed to be famous and he's not followed everywhere? There are d-listers who get pap shots. He just shows up at the school? My 14 year old niece teaches me how to do things on my phone (I'm 34) and Kendra is having this much trouble getting evidence? How many celebrities have been undone by social media?

Some things in this movie were just too obvious. Soon as she randomly lied about the doctor (seriously out of nowhere), I knew that would establish that she wouldn't be believed by her mother. It was toooo random. Her mom reads up on how to install spyware?

I'm getting angry watching this. This guy is so far off the rails and his manager knows, but while she helps the girl get away.... SPOILER: who didn't see her identity coming? You'd have to be a "close" relative to enable him like this.

The mom is super delusional. She gets dumped by a doctor and thinks this guy is genuine? She brings him to her home? Tells him where she works? Is she that desperate?

I want to turn this off so bad but I feel the need to stick it out. I'm gong to probably add to this review.

Oh and I agree with another reviewer who said Kendra resembles Shiri Appleby.

EDIT: dear GOD the climax...so they want us to believe he's just a creep but Mommie Dearest is the criminal? After what he's done to Kendra, he's now "saving" her and her friend? Is this somehow supposed to absolve him of what he actually did to her?

This movie is so bad.
