Tout n'est qu'illusion

Ok. So she stays in the town that was plotting with the sheriff who killed her brother and was killing anyone who got in the way of him getting rid of her. The sheriff and the town planned to get rid of all inheritors to her parents estate so the money from the estate could be distributed to the town. The sheriff claimed the parents were arrogant and gave no money to help friends, neighbors or the town. I guess he thought they were entitled to another person's wealth. Anyway, after killing the sheriff in self defense, Megan still plans to stay in the town, loan her boyfriend money to buy a bar and become his investor. How can they live happily in a town where the people resent Megan's wealth and hate her for it. She will constantly be looking over her shoulder. I don't get it. The storyline was kinda dumb. The acting was decent however. The writer did throw in a little twist in to make you think that who you know to be the perp, is not that person.

Ticks along in typical TV movie fashion. Okay acting, weak cinematography. And then, suddenly, the ridiculous plot is revealed in all it's nonsense and the film ends. Huh.

For a TV movie. The opening is an oddity, as she crashes the car killing husband and son then we see her as she gets to leave the "nursing" establishment where she has been for a 4 year period. The doctor looks as though she just came from a page 3 shoot. Then "Megan" gets into her own car, not having driven for a few years and away she goes. There are only 3-4 suspects including a brother who is in and out and her relationship with a bartender. Nice for those of us old enough to see Mariette Hartley, although very briefly. Given some of the movies on "freeview" in recent days, this is worth watching albeit not the same level of acting you would get in a top notch thriller.

I watched this movie with my mom and my sister and let me tell you, we had a good laugh cuz of how stupid and cheap the movie is. LIKE WHO CLEANS A BULLET WOUND THROUGH A SHIRT. The plot is nice but the acting is absolutely terrible. 1 star cuz it made me laugh, 2 stars cuz it made me cry and 3 stars for effort even though it could've been better.

My wife who has a talent for finding awful movies exceeded herself with this excuse of a thriller - my dogs could have created a more believable plot than the garbage served up in this excuse of a film - so bad I urge you to watch and wonder how the writer got away with this.

The house in question is pretty. So is Samaire Armstrong as a woman recovering from a breakdown after losing her husband and son. When she goes to her parents home her brother is missing and the townspeople don't remember him. It's quite intriguing to see what happens but the explanation at the end doesn't answer how such a ridiculous scheme could be pulled off. Rob Mayes plays her bartender boyfriend who helps her. Sheriff is played by Bart Johnson. Missable.
