When I sat down to watch the 2022 Lifetime thriller "Swim Instructor Nightmare", I must admit that I wasn't really harboring much of any hopes or expectations to the movie. I mean, the title alone just doesn't really invoke images of a grand movie experience. But since I hadn't already seen the movie, of course I opted to give it a fair chance.

And for a Lifetime movie, I will say that writer David Chester definitely upped the game and delivered a very enjoyable script and it made for a surprisingly good movie from director Doug Campbell.

Sure, the storyline was pretty generic, I mean, you already know the formula that these Lifetime movies follow, but there was still something unique about "Swim Instructor Nightmare", aside from the title, that made it a good movie.

And that thing was Sydney Hamm (playing Sabrina), talk about a great performance. Now, I am not familiar with Sydney Hamm from other movies, but she really put on a memorable and good performance as the somewhat disturbed young lady Sabrina that takes on the role of swim instructor for Ashley (played by Kiarra Beasley). The movie also had a good performance from Cj Hammond (playing Parker).

I actually was genuinely entertained by "Swim Instructor Nightmare". And if you can get past the cheesy title, then you should give director Doug Campbell's 2022 movie a chance.

My rating of "Swim Instructor Nightmare" lands on a six out of ten stars.

Sabrina is a second-string swimmer who's also a nutjob! She responds to a job for a wanted swim instructor to teach a 10-yr old girl how to swim but she really has the hots for the girl's dad! This was a pretty good thriller and kudos to Sydney Hamm as the psycho in her first starring role and hopefully more acting to come! Definitely recommend!

Well that wasn't what I expected.

I expected a cheesey thriller, but got a rather thrilling thriller.

Good acting, good story. Good directing.

The lead psychopath was very well played. I'd avoid her in the street if I saw her haha.

I'll not be watching it again, but I enjoyed watching it.

It was a play it by numbers movie that was done well.

But what's with the title?

I noted that the director has form of terrible film titles, that would be a put off to anyone who appreciates a good film, but don't let it stop you watching this.

I'll be trying another of his films on the basis of watching this.

Completely by the book Lifetime formula, but still enjoyable. The performances were all-around solid, particularly the unhinged antagonist who pulled off the routine psycho performance in a charming way. A couple twists tossed in kept the pace moving quickly and elevated it over the usual Lifetime films. Worth checking out if you're into the genre.

It's the same old psychopathic formula. The same old formula to a T (Whatever that means). A mentall ill female stalkers, hurts people, lies and plays a trickster god. To make a Lifetime movie requires you to be a dog lover apparently because these films lack skill, promise, moral code, pleasure, edutainment, something new. These movies are awful. After you've seen 2 to 3 you begin to realize how annoying these movies are.

Every time something happens I always say "You didn't see that coming?"

Again, these movies were made by dog lovers.

About: A psychotic, attractive female who can't find a boyfriend. She becomes a Loki, psycho stalker, murderer and is obsessed with men that don't even want her.

Story: Lame

Production: Horrible actors.

Highlight: Main chick is fine, but her acting makes her kind of unattractive

Moral Code: 3.

Unworthiness Level: 3

Should you watch this? No. Lifetime movies in the last 15 years have been the same psycho horror movies that require no skill except to be a dog lover. These movies are horrible and lazy. You've seen one of these, then you've seen them all.

If you do find yourself watching these movies, enjoy the eye candy. The actresses in these movies are way hotter than Hollywood actresses. Lifetime Actresses, look biologically natural and hot.
