Desejo Fatal

Worst acting and movie I have ever had the displeasure of watching. Thank god I fell asleep.

Production and technical features are above average for a TV movie. There's a moderately engaging story surrounding the heroine Posey (Christa B Allan) but it really falls apart as a thriller. It's clumsy and hackneyed with formulaic bad guys and big plot stretches. The actors ( some of whom are worthy of better things) must have been laughing up their sleeves in the more preposterous scenes.

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.

Some ridiculous scheme where a strange pair kidnap women for the pleasure of a high end client.

The story is meaningless and unconvincing.

It's a shame Christa B Allen has to act in something like this - she was a prime time actress in Revenge.

Don't watch this one.

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.
