La double vie de Posy

One of the worst films I've ever come across. Extremely bad acting and gruesome plot. I only could stand the first half hour. Definitely not worth watching.

I've seen this movie a few times on Lifetime, yet I always seem to watch it again if I see it coming on (under the name "Dangerous Seduction"). I'm a fan of the old school cheesy Lifetime movies, so I don't always have the highest bar for their stuff, but this one is actually better than most--probably bc it wasn't made for Lifetime! Christa B Allen (Charlotte from Revenge) did a good job in the lead role of (the ridiculously named) Posy Pinkerton. The story doesn't fall into one of the 3 standard Lifetime storylines--it has a little darkness to it, while still keeping it "basic cable ready". Overall it has pretty good production value for a made-for-tv movie and (if you're willing to suspend your disbelief a bit) it has a decent plot. After reading other reviews that say it's the "worst movie they've ever seen", I have to assume these people have not watched many movies bc there are plenty of stinkers out there--this isn't even close to the worst movie I've watched just this week! It's not gonna win a freaking Oscar, but if you want to watch a decent little made-for-tv thriller on a random Thursday, this movie gets the job done.

Despite the terrible acting, the movie has absolutely nothing to do with the title. You would think that"The Queen of Sin" would have something to do with a woman who is in control, not some weakling.

I should have known better. The basic plot summary alone indicated that this wasn't going to go well, but yet I watched this. Initially it went well: a fair amount of intrigue and a slick production made me think this might actually be worth watching.

However, it quickly became apparent that this was your average Z-grade thriller, just dressed up as something better. Plot becomes nonsensical, performances are poor: there's nothing going for this.

Avoid.

Nothing about this movie was convincing at all. Such a mismatch of characters. Obvious plot and full of plot holes. I only kept watching because the lead, Christa B Allen, was hot. Other than that, stupid on so many levels.
