A Rose for Her Grave: The Randy Roth Story

This is one of the better lifetime movies. For what it is, I liked a lot about it including the pacing, acting and the overall plot. It's based on a true story so, at least to me, made it more interesting.

They also were able to create good characters including the best friend who probably has the best performance. She did well conveying a genuine authentic friend who really cares. That's not easy to do! It helps drive the story as it moves along.

Overall this LTM avoids the tropes of many failed ones, not devolving into horrendous dialogue, craptastic acting and trash characters. I enjoyed it as a casual watch. 6/10.

I have never written a review in my life. But this movie was so bad, I felt the strong urge to write one.

I knew this movie was going to be bad, but I was getting over a bad cold and I was just looking for something to zone out to.

I am aware this is *based* on a true story, but I think the word based is used VERY loosely, because nothing about the plot made sense.

The script made no sense. The editing made no sense. The pacing made no sense. I can't even put into words how terrible this was.

Lifetime movies aren't Oscar winners, I don't expect them to be. But this movie had to have been made because someone owed someone a massive favour or somebody owed someone money.

Film students should watch this to learn what NOT to do.

The acting by Chrishell Stause and Colin Egglesfield was superb. The story was very sad and revolting, but I was glad to see that justice was served. This movie could bring awareness to some very big issues.

I also have to applaud the acting of the children in this movie.

Rachel Stubington's acting was on point.

Since I hadn't heard the story before, I didn't know what would happen, and it completely shocked me. The injustice, the extent to the horror this man inflicted.

The movie is a very realistic depiction of a very troubled man who harmed so many women, with a disturbed view of the world and complete lack of empathy or self-awareness.
