Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

... View MoreThis is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
... View MoreGreat example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
... View MorePaige (Daveigh Chase) and Tayler York (Melanie Scrofano) are bickering sisters. Paige has a disturbing love for married men. It doesn't help that their criminal dad commits suicide right after the girls refuse to support his latest scheme. Paige is haunted by discovering both her mother and her father's suicides. University medical student Paige takes a liking to new professor Dr. Lucas Emery (Rick Roberts). He needs help with his disabled wife Gabby and young daughter Amy.Daveigh Chase will always be Samara to me. She's had a few good child roles but generally has struggled to distinguish herself as a grown up actress. The shocking part in this movie is that she's blonde. She's still pretty cute but the acting has not advanced. This could be a juicy acting role as a deranged maneater but she's not wild enough. The movie moves too slowly and she's barely trying to seduce Lucas. The slow takeover has its appeal but it has no spice. This could have spiced things up by the Emerys having a teen boy in lust for the new helper. This is a Lifetime TV movie and doesn't get beyond that.
... View MoreI have seen my third "Killer _____"- type movie that stars Daveigh Chase, Rick Roberts, Sydney Penny entitled "Killer Crush".After having seen Arianne Zucker and Brando Eaton "Killer Assistant" and Karen Cliché, Kirby Bliss Blanton and Maddy Martin in "Killer Mom",I have seen in what I have could consider the weakest "Killer _____"- type movie among the three after seeing a young and crazy Medical student Paige becomes obsessed with her teacher Doctor Emery.Paige has something mental going on inside her head after her father's suicide and how she is presently in an awkward relationship with her sister Tayler who happens to be suffering from alcoholism.Then she gets to meet the man of her dreams in Medical school after she got introduced to her new teacher Dr. Lucas Emery who strikes her as handsome and charismatic as the a man of her dreams.Paige decides to do an awkward plan of making herself available for service in the Emery estate.She takes care of the ailing Mrs.Emery and does other work available.Too bad that her main objective is to fulfill her become the new Mrs. Emery to the point of becoming nefarious to the point of killing others.And things get worse when Paige gets rejected by Dr. Emery herself that she starts to do more harm for both her crush and herself.This was a story wherein a mentally disabled person is involved and someone who is not willing to take "no" for an answer just like we saw with Paige.Evidently,it was a great effect of her father killing himself.That also played a big factor on having admiration for the much older Doctor Emery aside from the teacher's charisma and being handsome.As we get to watch it,the regular viewer of Lifetime TV movies would find another clichéd and predictable movie unfolding that have already been done before. There is really nothing new or original being shown except the cast and the characters involved.And it lacks tension as well as we all known very well an hour before it concludes that Paige would not succeed in the end.As for the performances,it was pretty much standard with no one among the cast standing out. The only thing that would stand out in it are the harmful actions done by Paige to herself and to the other characters for shock value.
... View MoreFollowing the sudden death of her father, pretty blonde med student Daveigh Chase (as Paige York) becomes attracted to her older, still attractive university professor Rick Roberts (as Lucas Emery). Most appropriately, Ms. Chase's educational focus is on psychiatry. From the opening scenes, Chase demonstrates a need for psychiatric help. Fortunately for fans of psycho-driven "Lifetime" TV movies, Chase doesn't get help. To get closer to Mr. Roberts and bring home the bacon, Chase takes a job at the older doctor's luxurious estate. She's going to help his sickly wife Sydney Penny (as Gabby), who has multiple sclerosis...The Emery estate looks like it would need a large staff to manage, especially with Ms. Penny in a wheelchair and her husband working. Their cute young daughter Grace Zanichkowsky (as Amy Emery) seems capable, but would need some training. Probably, we see Chase working there on the other workers' day off. Mainly, obsessed Chase makes drinks for her beloved teacher's wife. This means trouble. The scenes between Chase and her "rival" Penny lack suspense. Melanie Scrofano (as Tayler York) does well in her role as Chase's alcoholic sister. It's a secondary role, but Ms. Scrofano's character is the most interesting.**** Killer Crush (4/4/15) Anthony Lefresne ~ Daveigh Chase, Rick Roberts, Melanie Scrofano, Sydney Penny
... View MoreI was really enjoying this movie. It was very interesting, until the end. I felt that the movie should have added something to let people know what happened in finding Paige's sister. Maybe there should be a sequel. The acting in this movie was very good. I would have liked to have seen some flashback on Paige's breakdown after her mother died. Her sister should have had more into this movie. After her father committed suicide, there should have been more emphasis on her addition to alcohol. Also, I think there should have been more about the Doctor's wife in the previous years. The little girl was excellent and adorable. There would have been more mystery if the daughter suspected Paige as being too pushy with her mother. It would have been more interesting if Gabby questioned her husband about sleeping so much.In summary, the overall movie was great! I loved the actors. The end of the movie was short, but overall I liked it.
