Killer Reality

This movie cracked me up. Kind of unusual for a this type movie because it seemed to have more of a sense of humor and awareness of the genre it was spoofing. That said, there were some legitimately creepy moments.

The movie felt fresh. It's an interesting commentary on what goes on behind the scenes of a dating reality show, but managed not to be preachy.

I found myself routing for the character of Hayley. And I thought it raised interesting questions on the moral lines that get blurred making one of these reality shows--and how real they really are.

And every time one of the potential dates was on screen, I found myself laughing. The woman who plays Samantha was a riot.

The characters actually made some smart choices.

Overall, I was really impressed with the cast and pacing. Worth a watch.

In a "teaser" opening, we see a red-hooded perpetrator attack a sexy blonde in her car. After the credits, we're in Los Angeles to meet our "Lifetime" TV Movie heroine. She's beautifully brown-skinned model-type Annie Ilonzeh (as Hayley Vance). A reality show producer, Ms. Ilonzeh is assigned to work on a "Bachelor"-type series entitled "Love Ever After" – being shot in picturesque Mexico. After receiving a startling welcome, Ilonzeh goes out for a drink and meets muscular model-type handsome Parker Young (as Ross Freeman). They lock their model-type faces together and save the other parts for later. As you might have guessed, Mr. Young turns out to be the handsome shirt-shedding star of Ilonzeh's reality show. As if that wasn't enough of a problem, Young's beautiful bachelorettes begin to get killed. The emphasis is on comedy, then suspense; neither mixes very well, but the cast looks beautiful.

I was pleasantly surprised by this movie. Although it was billed as a thriller, it was actually really funny too. There was great chemistry between the actors and there were some laugh- out-loud lines and interactions. I've seen it a couple of times now and have to say it's worth watching!

I actually watched it twice and enjoyed it both times.

The performances by the actresses who played Haley, Barbara (and all of the Bachelorettes) really stood out--but thought all of the actors were good.

I am surprised by the previous post. That person must have been watching a different movie or just didn't get that parts were supposed to be funny.

I first seen this movie when it came out and every time it's on lifetime.. I make sure to catch it! Such a good movie. The main girl, Haley and main guy, Ross are both beautiful people. They would make a cute couple for real.
