The Girl Who Wasn't Dead

I've watched some Lifetime movies that I have disliked, but none as much as this one. It is truly horrible with the teen daughter being completely reprehensible. The other Lifetime movies are bad in just generally bad ways-characters who are stupid and selfish, same ending over and over, weak men, unlikable protagonists. And constant wine drinking and houses they could never afford for their careers.

But this one? It's bad in seriously morally repugnant ways. The cruelty of what the daughter put her mom and brother through is disgusting. And then to end his sorry excuse of a movie with the lead character trying to justify her actions by saying, "I'm sorry." And " I just wanted to be happy." is outrageous. To put her family through the mental and spiritual agony that loved ones experience when they lose a loved one to crime is inexcusable. That girl definitely should have done prison time or at the bare minimum community service. Mom should not pay back the community for wasting resources, the daughter should bear the full weight of that.

But, you know, she got to be "happy" and her family should just understand. The writers, producers, directors, etc. Should be ashamed of themselves for putting this garbage out there. I kept watching only to see if they ever came to a point of moral redemption. They did not.

IMDB needs to allow for negative stars or zero stars or something that conveys how bad something is. This deserves no stars. Rarely have I disliked a movie this much.
