This Lifetime retelling of the story portrays Andrew Borden (Stephen McHattie) as a stern man who was disliked by everyone. Lizzie (Christina Ricci) is depicted as someone who lies, steals, is rebellious and flirty with her father. She is not played by Lindsey Lohan which would have been great considering how she butchered Elizabeth Taylor.
The film doesn't develop character much beyond that. It utilizes a modern soundtrack to help us feel that mental imbalance of Lizzie. This is about as close to a grindhouse Lifetime will ever get. It doesn't show the actual killings, but like the court of public opinions, leads us to believe she was guilty and used the superior Elizabeth Montgomery, killed them while naked, explanation. Her wild eyes cast nicely into the role of a mentally unstable person.
How is it that 34 year old Christina Ricci still looks like she is 14? Is she a vampire sucking off the blood of virgins or what? I mean you can still see her ribs. Doesn't she eat?
Okay viewing. Not much in the way of horror, court room drama, or historical drama.
