Toward the end of the movie Brant is kneeling on top of Sandra, who is laying on the ground. He's trying to kill her with a hatchet. Suddenly, for no apparent reason, as he swings the hatchet, he acts like he is hurt, and moves off her, doubled over in pain. That gives her time to grab a rock and hit him over the head (never doing so hard enough or often enough to incapacitate him; that would break one of the rules of Lifetime movies; he has to be able to get up and attack again after she runs away).
I've played that scene multiple times, in slow motion. I see nothing that happens that would cause him to react the way he does. He swings the hatchet, stops well before it reaches her, and moves away from her. She moves as he swings the hatchet, but does not kick him, hit him, or hurt him in any way.
So what caused him to fall off of her? Bad writing? Or did I miss something, even as often as I watched that scene? If anyone knows, leave a review, and I'll check back periodically to see if there is a rational reason for what happened. Though "rational" and "Lifetime movie" are terms that don't do together.
Another thing that bothered me was that the remote "cabin", which was as large and well-decorated as most houses, had no access road, yet was clean, well-built, and perfectly furnished. Even the houseplants were healthy and obviously well taken care of. But did Sandra notice or question any of this, after she had to hike through the woods, without even a trail, to get to the cabin? Nah. That would have violated Lifetime formula rules, too.
I don't expect much from these movies. And I got exactly what I expected. With more plot holes than usual.
