Psycho Party Planner (2020 TV Movie)
2/10
Lifetime is ridiculous
2 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I came across this on discovery plus and decided to watch it. Unfortunately, this is another rushed lifetime movie set in some unrealistic fantasy world.

The movie starts off fairly interesting enough, but becomes very dull and predictable. It feels like they dragged on the unnoticed psycho a bit too long, and then jumped the gun with everyone coming to the same conclusion. The mother and the drill team coach find themselves tied up in the psycho's house, but are able to free themselves. Instead of running out the door, like any sane person would, they stick around and look for a cellphone. So, of course, the party planner returns home with a gun. They sneak around this infinite spaced house, and play a game of hide and seek. The mother and coach find themselves outside the house, and again, instead of running they hangout right below a window. Coach is killed, the mother doesn't react and basically walks away. Now, the daughter whose party was in full swing, suddenly gets a weird feeling about this creepy adult lady who at one point served her alcohol and presented 1001 red flags. Why? Because she thought she saw the party planner using her moms phone. So, she leaves her party with her boyfriend, snow globe in hand for a weapon and the two rush to the party planners house. Too late for coach, but they're are able to save her mom. Boyfriend gets shot. The daughter hears the gun shot, and steps out to see her boyfriend laying there bleeding. She has the most uncaring reaction, and offers an "omg are you okay?" As homeboy is clearly bleeding. Lucky he was hit in the shoulder, the party planner claims to be the girls bio mom. Dad shows up too, and looks ridiculously stupid just standing there. Same song and dance with lifetime; if you adopt a child, be prepared for the birth mother to come back 16 years later to steal her child back. One month later, the art gallery is thriving. Nobody talks about how the original party planner was murdered, nobody talks about the coach being murdered, don't know where the dog that was stolen from the OG party planner after she killed her is, no closure on whether or not this psycho planner was truly the birth mom, or just absolutely insane on a whole different level. No police reports, no consequences, no investigations. The party planner / bio mom is dead. All is well and thriving in suburbia lol.
