Psycho Granny - O mal não envelhece

Anyone else catch the granny "knitting" the baby blanket that was actually crocheted?

What I like about this movie is the attractive Polly Bergen-type granny. And that's about all. The stop-start, startle-each-other moments are a bit overdone. The overly-dramatic scary music fit for a monster's appearance comes down like a sledgehammer at every twist & turn. Pregnant Samantha won't drink wine but she eagerly takes a cup of strong exotic tea? As I said, I love Polly Bergen, so when the granny is on camera it's at least interesting to watch.

Why does the grandmother not look like a grandmother? She doesn't have to look like granny Clampett, but at least give her some gray hair. Overall, somewhat entertaining despite the less than stellar acting. Unlike every other Lifetime type movie where all the woman constantly drink wine, our heroine here actually drank water! Why would the Brad Pitt looking guy ever question the grandmother why she is visiting the granddaughter when it's late? That seemed dumb. The bathroom scenes were way overdone. Too much curiosity about how each other are doing in there. Too many times they startled each other when the door opened. The acupuncture dialogue was amusing.

This was an okay bored on a rainy day watch. Not a top one for me but okay. She does go psycho as the title tells us so that was fun to watch but it seemed more like a spoof than a movie. Haha.

Just bad. The acting is stiff and awkward, the writing is bad, the best part of it is the grandmother and even her lines are less than convincing. The storyline is weak and I literally couldn't care less about any of the characters, none of them are really that likeable or have much personality. They're just boring people with boring lines I'm afraid.
