Before she became a single white female searching newspaper ads for a new bestie and before she entered college with plans to morph into her roommates dead sister, she was the wrong girl and former mental nutjob with serious daddy issues. Yep. This has to be the prequel to The Roommate and Single White Female. The movie left me hanging because I'm really not sure if she lived, died, went to prison. I don't know. But that's okay because it left me with the option to keep her psycho going strong. I'd like to think that after she dusted off all the leaves and removed the tree bark embedded in her forehead, she went on to become Leighton Meester, where she zeroes in on Minka Kelly for yet another round of straight up psycho. After her girl on girl showdown date with crazy as hell suffers a major meltdown, she doesn't die like we all thought she did. That's because it's hard to kill crazy. Nope. She instead moves to the Big Apple where she comes into her own as Jennifer Jason Leigh. Here, she is free to go full on psycho-b**ch and step up her game with a little 50 Shades of Grey (public service style), a small matter of murdering a puppy or four, oh! and just as she did in college (as well as that time she pretended to be a high school student), she sleeps with her stalkee's boyfriend... and all before trying to murder her, of course. She even decided to bring back that awesome twin-thing idea that worked so well in high school and college! I mean, it went over quite splendidly back then, did it not? Why not go there again? Oh yes, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, especially after watching all three movies back to back. Try it. It'll be hours of insatiable comedic joy that you will always remember fondly! Kick back and celebrate the moments of your life.
This has got to be one of the most boring, predictable and nonsense films ever made. The classic "good" girl versus "crazy" girl stalker has been overdone far too many times but this time they decided to try and spice it up a bit by adding a music twist. The "good" girl is a budding classical music pianist and loves playing the piano in many partsof the film. Unfortunately, the classical music chosen is so slow and boring that it lulls you into a deep sleep. If that doesn't make you fall asleep, the pace of the film and some wooden acting, will. I've seen and heard much better.
This is a strange film and I am unable to decide fully what I think of it.
Watching the film, I could not see how the initial scene linked in to the plot although we know it must be relevant in some way. Kirsten Prout plays the strange and unnerving Michelle very well. The strange baddie of course is in big goofy glasses, like she must be strange with these on. We cannot understand why she does the things she does and why she has chosen Sophia as a target.( if you hate spiders ...don't watch this) I could not see where the film was leading, as to what finale. There is a huge element of "the unknown enemy within" feeling which makes it unnerving.
The reasons come about 15 minutes from the end. The idea behind it is very good but then the film gets silly.
Watchable on an empty afternoon.

What is the piece of piano music called that Ashley was constantly practising for her concert?
I don't play piano , but , I do remember my 13 year old playing similar pieces in music school !! I mean Sophia's playing skills were good ,but not scholarship material......that was way too farfetched ! This whole movie was so typical of the predictable stalker / physco type movie we have all seen before so many times .
Nothing new or oiriginal here, the only exciting part was the tarantula on the piano scene !
By the way I wonder where it wandered off to .............................shudder.
