Jason Brady is trying to clean up after an incident. He and his sister Zoe return to St. Adeline's Catholic School for the new year. Sister Sophia White is a highly recommended new teacher. She's especially obsessed with Jason over his internet music postings. She seduces the teen and plants evidences against the kids.This is salacious cheese. It starts with the Toxic Tramp lip gloss and the red lingerie. Any suspense is dispensed with after the first fifteen minutes as everything is revealed. The story is predictable. The actors are perfectly fine but nothing exceptional. It's a bad Lifetime movie or maybe even worst.

I didn't find this the best thriller movie that I have seen because the movie looks obvious that its low budget. OK so it's a story about a serial killer who poses as a nun she has killed. Yeah, I think they should've made the character more sneaky and not just noticeable that she isn't a real nun. To be frankly honest, I think Alyshia Ochse's character needed to be more interesting. I'm saying this because she acted so awkward instead of being smart in being someone else. I know this is an underrated movie but they really needed to tweak things a bit..I only watched this because Devon Werkheiser who was in Neds Survival Guide was on this and, I felt like watching a thriller film. I am disappointed in the character developments however. I'm giving this underrated movie 6/10.

This has got to be one of the worst thrillers I've seen in the last few years. From the very first second of the movie we know everything - there's no process of audience gradually learning what happened and who the main character is - unless that's what they planned on doing with revealing her name at the very end - which, again, means nothing to us and has no value to add to the story line. At moments when I dosed off I was awaken by sounds which I could of sworn were coming from cheapest porn movies out there. And acting is bad as well. I can't say about other reviews here, maybe these kind of movies are their thing - but if not - skip this one. You're welcome.

After "Don't Wake Mommy" (and the previous night's disappointment from "The House Sitter") I was beginning to wonder if the formulae of Lifetime movies were beginning to pale with me. Fortunately the next one, "Bad Sister," was considerably better, a film that came from the creators of what I have come to call the "Whittendale universe" — producer Ken Sanders, director Doug Campbell and writer Barbara Cum-Licker (oops, I mean Kymlicka) — because the stories either take place at the fictitious "Whittendale University," a highly prestigious (and expensive) private college, or feature high-school seniors desperate for admission there. There seems to be uncertainty in the cycle as to just where Whittendale University is; I believe one film in the series mentioned it as being in Vermont, but the locale of this film is St. Adeline's Catholic high school in Los Angeles and the Bradys (Robert Leeshock and Lise Colleen Sims), parents of the juvenile leads, fraternal twins Jason (Josh Plasse) and Zoë (Jessica Honor Carleton), talk about driving there to see it over a weekend — which would be quite a long drive indeed. From the title I might have expected a romantic or professional rivalry between two sisters, good and bad, something like the 1931 Universal film "Bad Sister" (Bette Davis's first film and an early credit for Humphrey Bogart as well, in which — much to the astonishment of anyone who knows Davis from her later credits at Warner Bros. — Davis played the good sister and Sidney Fox, the Girl Named Sidney, played the bad one) — but no-o-o-o-o, instead it's a recycling of the previous Whittendale film "Dirty Teacher," but with the kinkiness level ramped up big-time by making the sexually avaricious teacher bent on seducing poor, (relatively) innocent Jason Brady is a nun, Sister Sophia (Alyshia Ochse) — or at least, as we begin to suspect well before any of the characters do, an impostor posing as a nun — who's been hired as a teacher at St. Adeline's after her previous employers, a Catholic high school called St. Valentine's in Missoula, Montana, gave her glowing recommendations. Only, as we begin to suspect from the moment Sister Sophia unpacks "her" conservative brown underwear and then the bright crimson bra and panties she really likes to wear — and the panties are not only considerably hotter but noticeably smaller as well — she waylaid and knocked off the real Sister Sophia and assumed her identity. Like every other bad girl in the Whittendale universe (which seems to consist exclusively of corrupt female teachers going after male students and nubile young girl students selling themselves to rich men to pay Whittendale's tuition), she's willing to do anything to get Jason into bed with her."Bad Sister" was good clean dirty fun in the best Whittendale-universe tradition, effectively directed by Campbell and mostly well acted; Josh Plasse looks way too preppy in his short hair and ubiquitous dress shorts to look credible as an aspiring rock star (though the songs composed for him by musical director Steve Gurevitch aren't bad at all; throughout the film I couldn't help but remember that Bruce Springsteen went to Catholic school, and some of his early songs have bitter anti-Church comments like "Nuns walk through Vatican halls pregnant/Preaching immaculate conception" that were clearly influenced by that experience, though the character cites Justin Bieber as his role model and his music is considerably closer to Bieber's than Springsteen's, while he sings in such a high voice for a man one of the other characters says, "You sing like a girl," and when my husband Charles came home in the middle of one of Jason's songs he said, "Why is he trying to sing like Tracy Chapman?") and the film would probably be more believable if he'd worn his hair in the Elvis-style cut of his IMDb.com head shot. Alyshia Ochse delivers a marvelous performance as the psycho pseudo-nun, managing indeed to come off like a 14-year-old parochial schoolboy's wet dream of the woman he'd like to lose his virginity to and maintaining her balance between her nun identity and her slut reality even though writer Kymlicka has her lay a trail a mile long, including not knowing the "morning prayer" with which she is supposed to begin every first-period homeroom class, and calling on the students to lead it instead. (One person on the IMDb.com message board wondered why she didn't bother to learn the morning prayer.) Sloane Avery also strikes a nice balance between her character's genuine romantic, as well as sexual, interest in Jason and her reputation as the "fast" girl on campus, as if she thought she could get Jason by making herself seem sexually available to every guy on campus. The actors playing the parents don't have much of a chance to do more than play the stereotypes — hard-assed father and relatively indulgent mom — and the other people on campus (except for Helen Eigenberg's finely honed performance as Rebecca) are pretty much an anonymous mob, but "Bad Sister" is overall a nicely entertaining, if frankly unbelievable, movie that's a pleasant time-filler as well as a good clean dirty exercise in the quirky kinkiness of the Whittendale universe.
