La famille du péché

My quick rating - 3,2/10. If the Lifetime channel wanted to get a bit darker than their normal stuff, they would've gotten this. Only their actors are typically better. After a woman is in a car accident on the way to visit some college, she is picked up by an ambulance and instead of a hospital, she is taken to the home of a twisted family led by Momma (Cathy Moriarty) There is really nothing here you haven't seen before in the old kidnap woman and keep her captive story. The family isn't insane in any manner such as Rob Zombie would give us. More or less the standard one son blindly following the mom, the other reluctantly following. Everything here falls right into place as you would expect and doesn't make for great viewing.

On a flyer, I watched this movie on LMN and was so pleasantly surprised that I felt the need to give it an (almost) ten-star review. If the storyline weren't so far-fetched, it would have gained all five stars from me.

Where the film triumphed, however, was the great cast of actors. Cathy Moriarty was fantastic as the deranged mother - a role I hadn't seen her play before - and AlexAnn Hopkins was equally a delightful heroin.

The standout for me was the role of Clyde, played by Sam Meader. He gave such a solidly chilling performance as the bad guy that he almost had me rooting for him. An actor I hadn't come across before, I look forward to seeing him in future movies.

Overall, a fun film if you don't take it too seriously - worth the watch!

This was very entertaining for the genre, and especially a made for tv movie. I don't really want to say more, because I hate when reviews tell you details about the movie.

One plus one does not equal two in this movie. If you live in the world were common sense apply this movie have you screaming "WTH" and occasionally "really". Don't waste your time with this movie.

"Into The Arms of Danger" is without a doubt one of the most creative Lifetime dramas I've watched. The story is compelling, and I was on the edge of my seat throughout the entire film. The cast - especially Cathy, who played Momma - did an amazing job. The art of a truly good film is that it's supposed to put you in the zone, allowing you to absorb the emotions of the characters, and the director and writer did a good job with it. I genuinely felt for Momma and her clearly-brainwashed children, but on the other hand, I also felt very strongly for Jenny, who was clearly the victim. Momma clearly has her demons, but there were moments I saw what potential she had, if she'd gotten the help she needed and deserved. Anyway, the movie hit all my sweet spots and I genuinely enjoyed this watch over many other films because the storty has substance and isn't one of those overly-cliche Lifetime flicks, it's actually very interesting in its depth, but very entertaining as well.
