Pool Boy Nightmare

Veteran actress Jessica Morris provides solid acting which pulls together the poorer performances of the others. Was especially not impressed with the young newcomer Tanner Zagarino. He's handsome enough but definitely needs to work on his acting skills. The two young women give average performances.

As for the plot, another reviewer wrote "Nothing new but it's got something". I couldn't have said it better. If you've seen a lot of other LMN movies you won't be too surprised by this one. I am one of those that enjoys these movies and I enjoyed this one so I'll give it a 7.

The story follows Gale as she has a brief affair with pool cleaner Adam, but quickly refuses his continued advances. Insulted at being rejected, Adam begins dating Gale's school-aged daughter Becca, using her as an unsuspecting pawn in a twisted game of revenge.

Marathoning the Lifetime channel movies for a week, and always more of the same, a ready-made recipe, pleasant, cynical and forced, I love it, low-budget independent films, simple script, bureaucratic actions, all very simple and sounding almost fake, a piscineiro hot and psycho, or rather, mentally unbalanced, in love with MILF, adorable, if he didn't have murderous, depressive and psychotic tendencies...

Gale has a fling with Adam. the hot and sexy psycho poolboy, and then rejects him! Huge mistake and Adam intends to make her pay for it What does he do? You will have to tune into this one to find out! One not to be missed, well-scripted and well-acted. Definitely would watch again!!!

I actually really enjoyed this one, granted it's totally predictable and nothing brand new. There's something about Lifetime movies that just suck me right in.

Still fresh from a divorce from her cheating husband, Gale Foley (Jessica Morris) hopes that her new house will mean a fresh start for her and her teenage daughter Becca (Ellie Darcey-Alden). Her new home also comes with a pool, which is how Gale meets Adam Lance (Tanner Zagarino), the pool cleaner for the home's previous owner. Charmed by Adam's good looks and suave personality, Gale takes on Adam as her own pool boy--and ends up sharing a passionate fling with the young man. However she immediately regrets her action and breaks it off with the pool boy, saying that it was a mistake and can't happen again, but as this is a thriller - and a Lifetime thriller more accurately- the Pool boy doesn't accept this and shows a vengeful side by romancing her daughter as a means of getting back at her. As Gale tries to get Adam out of her and her daughter's lives, her former lover's obsession proves more twisted than she could imagine...

A fairly formulaic "Scorned Lover" drama that Lifetime can do in its sleep, but it's still fun with adequate bouts of suspense and thrills, if a little tame. It's well acted, especially by the pool boy who switches from romantic to psycho with ease. You do sort of feel sorry for him but his penchant for pouring bleach in a swimming pool burning his girlfriend's dad and self inflicting injuries so the dad can take the blame shows how ill he is.
