Final Vendetta

After watching quite a few of these TMC late night movies, it dawned on me- a simple formula. Such a formula made famous by Poison Ivy (an actually good movie) and taken to the limits with different types of women, dysfunctional couples and the disappointments that can happen in life.

The formula is as follows:

1.) Start the movie off with one of the main characters (usually the beautiful "evil" girl) as a child. Show what horrible thing happened to them, therefore leading to their psychosis.

2.) Show the unsuspecting souple (widower and daughter, divorcee and daughter, husband and wife, boyfriend and girlfriend) who somehow became entangled with the "evil" girl, and cant escape.

3.) Introduce the "friend" of the family or couple (this can be a best friend, boss, maid, boyfriend) who suspects the bad girl all along. When they find out a little too much, have them killed. Have the bad girl "comfort" them.

4.) Show how the bad girl seduces one half of the family or couple- all the while having something to hold over the other one's head. Have just one gratuitous sex scene.

5.) Have a bloody conclusion, where the now happy couple move to the suburbs.

I love Bridgette Wilson as an actress, and she did a good job with what she was given.
