La follia viene dal passato

Practically everything in this movie sucks. I mean coming from lifetime you can not expect much but this... SERIOUSLY? Cliff hangers sucked. However the acting was... well... bad, yet again. How can a film stuff up so many things. Do Not Reccomend at all!!!!

The film was wooden. There was nice but dim pregnant woman and her thick husband, airhead stepmother-to-be and widow. The sister-in-law is her thicko husband's long lost sister. No one ever considered to check her background, documents or birth certificate but took her on board. And why are they living in a Mount Olympus type abode instead of a normal house? None of the characters behave like real people, and they're all extremely stupid.

I had the chance to sit down and watch the 2020 thriller "Psycho Sister-In-Law" (aka "Sinister Sister") here in 2021. I hadn't heard about the movie prior to watching, so I only know what I was in for a thriller. But the movie's synopsis actually sounded okay.

Writer and director Jake Helgren did manage to put together a movie that was watchable, no doubt about that. But "Psycho Sister-In-Law" suffers from being a generic thriller. Jake Helgren seemed to simply cash in on all the stereotypical and generic tropes that makes a thriller. So the movie here didn't really differentiate itself from numerous other thrillers similar to it. In fact, it seemed like Jake Helgren was running things on auto-pilot, so it was bit of a stale and bland movie experience.

The storyline told in "Psycho Sister-In-Law" was adequate, although it was generic. And you knew the very outcome of the movie from the moment the movie started, so there was that, yeah, it was that predictable and generic.

The acting performances in the movie were adequate, although there weren't any particular outstanding performances. With that being said, don't get me wrong, because the actors and actresses did good enough jobs, they were just hindered by a generic and predictable script.

Ultimately then "Psycho Sister-In-Law" is a watchable, although rather forgettable thriller. And if you do enjoy thrillers, then it is doubtful that this 2020 movie from writer and director Jake Helgren will impress you much.

My rating of "Psycho Sister-In-Law" lands on a four out of ten stars.

This Lifetime movie is above average with a strong cast. A couple are due for a baby soon, but the husband's father dies suddenly with a mistress and everyone's ready to inherit part of the estate. Enter the husband's half-sister, played beautifully by Lydia Hearst (related to the Hearst dynasty) who wantsALL of the money and the baby to herself. What will she do? Tune in to find out! Definitely recommend this one!

Nick and Haley = dumb and dumber! Seriously just like one contributor said, every time Zara opened her mouth she offended someone and no one said or did a thing. She foeced her way into living with dumb and dumber and easily framed Haley for everything, even pinning a murder on her. And yet the idiots continued to entertain her.

Saw Andrea in Hall Pass Nightmare and she was good in it. But in here she was terrible with no fault of her own. The script was just plain terrible. Seen the guy who plays Nick in Killer Assistant and he was totally annoying there. He played a smug calculating killer.

This is one of many Lifetime flops. Having the daughter of a famous heiress in it did not make it any more interesting!
