Critics Reviews

Laura Fries Variety Arthur Allan Seidelman provides an unremarkable account of a story that at best should have been played out as a small-screen version of The Grifters or at least a campy Sunday night diversion. The telepic doesn't come close to either option. Oct 19, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Every time I see this film it disturbs me. The fact that a woman could be so manipulative and cold-blooded to everyone including her own son puzzles me. The Kimes' story is a horrifying one that you must see. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Compelling performances, gripping thriller, nauseating story. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I like it because the psych part of me likes analyzing this family and how sick they were! Started watching it in class and now want to finish it! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
