The main difference between this movie of the week and the amazingly wonderful Positively True Adventures of the Alleged Texas Cheerleader-Murdering Mom, which was also a movie of the week and based on a true crime story...is that The PTAATC-MM was done with a highly skilled crew of professionals. While watching A Deadly Adoption it is so PAINFULLY clear that the script is rotten, the performances are rotten and can not hide behind the guise of "camp". "Camp" is one of my favorite genres. And this ain't "camp"...it's more like "CRAMP" because of the feeling i got in my gut from wasting time watching it....or more precisely...CRAP. Don't believe the spin doctors who are trying to pawn it off as classic camp. It is merely a situation where a writer (from SNL) got his actor pals (from SNL) to agree to make a little cash real quick-like...all on Lifetime's dime.
