trepessa Review of The Eleventh Victim

The Eleventh Victim (2012 TV Movie)

Serial Murderer haunting an ex DA.

[7/10 · 5 February 2015]

This by no means is a bad movie. Jennie Garth is a TV actress in a movie from Lifetime. It is a television movie and not a major motion picture that would be shown in theaters. It is meant to entertain only and that is what it does. I don't believe this would appeal to most men because it has a female lead who is strong but haunted by the violence and an incident with a very heinous murderer in court. Most Lifetime and LMN movies are basically geared toward a female audience. I have seen many movies of this type and this one is no worse. I write and I didn't see anything wrong with the plot or the characters. The acting is fine for the parts they are playing. It is actually very straight forward about a psychopathic serial killer who becomes obsessed with getting even with his prosecutor. Now this isn't a new idea but it doesn't need to be. It's how it is portrayed within the movie. There is no way any movie or novel is likely these days to come up with anything new or improved that hasn't been done one way or another, yet this had a secret that comes out in the end. I like Jennie Garth and she does a good job in the movie as well as the supporting cast. Cunningham is a good villain in this movie and is believably deranged. I think many of the reviewers simply have no expertise in writing, film making or judging acting. Be that as it may, the movie is average, entertaining for a little over an hour. I believe it deserves a better rating than most are giving and it is not a bad film. It all depends on the taste of the individual watching. If you like simple murder mystery psychological thrillers with a pretty straight forward plot you will be entertained by this one.
