Love Sick Love

Ostensibly marketed as a thriller, this little independent film is anything but. It's more akin to a black-comedy that has vaguely thriller elements. I didn't mind the 'all women are nuts' undercurrent running through the film, as its merely a flip side of all the 'guys are evil pigs' Lifetime TV movies out there. What I did mind was that all the characters were rubbish, improperly motivated and felt unrealistic (even In the confines of the movie) I got some chuckles out of the grandparents played by veterans Charlotte Rea and M. Emmet Walsh, however not enough to say that this silly lil movie is worth watching.

Eye Candy: Katia Winter is topless for all of one second

For an unemployed single mother of two a Porsche driving company owner sure seems like the man of her dreams, but it is not the same for him. Her unrealistic expectations turn to bitter disappointment when her 'I love you' is not reciprocated, and she becomes vengeful. She expects a lifelong financial support both for her and her two kids in exchange for some bedroom and occasional kitchen action, and that is what she calls Love, and being in touch with her emotions! The storyline portrays psychotic, but comments on ordinary, everyday relationships. A sad state of gender affairs. Bitter, but all too realistic film.

Seduction that turns into obsession, and then torture. Comments on family as 'ball and chain' for the male, in this movie literally. This is a serious date movie, not a romantic comedy. It is not a triller, but social commentary.

This movie meets Misery with a twist of Texas Chainsaw Massacre, great movie, well written, Katia Winter is perfect as Kathy Bates. This movie would make a great boyfriend girlfriend movie to watch together. Love sick love would make a great husband wife movie to watch together. The movie uses great props, great usage of automobiles, great usage of homes. The grandparents home reminds you of the great movie Psycho. Love sick love passes as a realistic movie, something that could very easily happen to you or I. Love sick love is a must see for any serious movie watcher or movie critic. The movie was released in 2013 and should win many awards for great acting, great writing, great camera work, this movie should leave you with a sense to look closely at your very own relationships, rent or buy this movie is worth the green money. Enjoy the movie.

For those out on the single scene, there's so much of the dialogue in this movie that makes you cringe only b/c you've said it or you've definitely heard someone else say it. Katia Winter does an amazing job with this role & carries the cast quite well. Really interesting role for Matthew Settle. What can be left to be said about Charlotte Rae? She's a class act from start to finish & this is a role I never thought I'd see her in (she's still Facts of Life Den Mom for me). The director & screenwriter must be some kinda warped if any of this is related to any of their own dating experiences. All in all, Really Great Flick and a refreshing change from the usual that's currently out; Engrossing from start to finish. Makes you wish for a Part Two too.

This movie had an interesting plot and had quite a few twists and turns. The idea of surviving holidays with a new boyfriend is different. I would recommend it as a date movie as it definitely gave my date and I a few conversation pieces. I've always been a great fan of Charlotte Rae and she didn't disappoint as a crazy, yet kind grandmother. It's also great to see newcomer Katia Winter play a very convincing psycho. It was a good mix of laughs yet the suspense made for some great goose bump moments. In this day and age of internet dating, this movie seems appropriate as a cautionary tale for those in the dating world.
