Brilliant comedy! It starts off with an overly dramatic male voice reading a whimsically rhyming "true story" that had my family in giggles within minutes. The entire title sequence is an amusingly corny montage of "creepy" imagery and music and ending with an off-key chorus of "creepy" voices, and the entire movie just gets funnier from there. It's an over- the-top parody of a horror movie combined with some kind of dramatic soap opera. The cheesy dialogue, questionable continuity, utter lack of characterization, and hilarious overacting really make this film one of the greatest I have ever seen. My family and I were all in tears from laughing so hard, and not even halfway through the movie. I highly recommend this film to anyone who wants a good laugh with dinner!

((Seriously though...this movie is truly awful. Yes, I was literally in tears from laughing so hard and I actually do recommend it if you've got the sense of humor for it.))

One of the worst movies I have ever seen, and I watch A LOT of movies.

The acting was horrible and the story made no sense at all. And what was up with her drinking all the time??

I would not recommend this movie to anyone. I rarely dislike any movie that I have seen, but this one is about one of the worse I have watched.

There was no continuity, I didn't care if any of the characters lived or died, and I couldn't wait for the end so I could stop watching it! And yes, I watched it to the end hoping that it would redeem itself (which it didn't, needless to say).

Thank God I watched it on Netflix, because if I had paid money for this movie, I would be very upset.

Cannot agree with several other reviews.

For me, sorry to say, this is just a poorly made movie. Got very tired of the many cut-away scenes, many, just not cogent.

I do not mind watching movies just for some mindless fun and passing time. But, this was really wasting time. I rarely turn a movie off, just hoping it might show some promise by the end...sad to say, this one just kept going downward.

Promising premise, but never delivered.

Acting was poor. Felt the writing and editing poor. Some scenes outright laughable and not in a good way.

This is just a repeat of what others have been saying. It's just completely awful!! The actors suck, the writing sucked and I am personally offended that they can even say this is based from a true story. With the exception of the monologue at the beginning and a few hints to the actual Borden story check out the 1975 movie called The Legend of Lizzie Borden. I guess my only question is why is this a $1.20 from Redbox and can I get my money back? I know a few producers who could make a great documentary on this particular event and it be one of the best things you've seen… ever…where are you Phil and Christopher Saint Booth when we need something decent and recent for this story???

Not the worst movie you could see, but this one suffers greatly from what appears to be execution issues. A pretty good cast is highly underutilized, the effects mostly fall under "should be good enough", the dialog is borderline awful, there are a host of continuation errors and so on. Really just seems like a good idea came up and the execution on that idea was left to chance, a good lesson on the importance of proper and thorough planning I guess. The bright spot is Shawna Waldron as Maggie who really showed talent despite what was obviously a flawed productions. She even made the poorly written dialog work and made the most and then some of what she had to work with. With the interesting premise and given cast it would be interesting to see what better execution could produce. As far as the look of the film that's more a matter of personal taste, I found it to be a bit to flat for my liking, but it doesn't take anything away from the film.
