Summer of Fear (1996 TV Movie)
1/10
An endurance test. So boring. The actors try, but it's no use. The screenplay and directing is sleep inducing.

Warning: Spoilers
Believe it or not I actually finished watching this. It took me two sittings, some fast forwarding, and playing the guitar so I could stay awake, to make it to the end.

There is no reason to watch this movie. The best part was when the family was first attacked by the two carjackers. But that faded quickly. The rest of the movie is just painful to watch as the father/husband is demeaned by everyone including his wife, kids and cops. At least the actor was getting paid. What about the viewer? We have to endure this ridicule scene after scene. And in between the ridicule we have boring stale scenes of garbage.

The actors did the best they could. You could see them trying. The problem is the story/screenplay, and the directing is just plain boring.

Stay away.
