Lifetime’s latest thriller drops viewers into the action right from the jump. Under desaturated grey/blue skies, introverted lawyer Mel (Lindsey Desbach) rides a ferry to Feng Key island. She’s headed to the titular party island not for a vacation, though; she’s there to identify the body of her drowned younger sister, Georgia (Andrea Prevatt).

Georgia’s body was found on the beach with her wallet, but her phone and passport are missing. Later, as Mel begins to investigate, frightened local Kaya (Mia Rose) insists that Georgia was wearing a bathing suit when she was pulled from the water, so where was she keeping her wallet?
Clearly something is amiss and seemingly everyone knows it, including Wayward hostel owner Keaton (Adam Harper) and his...

Even though they made this big bad villain look unique, the rest of the film does not look unique at all. It seems super cheap & cheesy, but maybe it'll use that kitsch to its advantage. Or maybe not. // Continue Reading ›...
