Lethal Love (2021 TV Movie)
7/10
Kinda tame, somewhat lame, but will still entertain

A tale of a handsome, guitar playing, suede moto jacket wearing creeper dude who targets sisters, and single mothers and daughters since he has some past personal conflict with his own mother and sisters. Posing as a freelance musician, creeper latches onto and seduces a sexy 50 something bakery running mother (Sandra) and her pretty daughter (Sophie) supposedly to get their recipes. He had previously done the same to two sisters running a music studio to get their songs killing one in the process. After posing as a street musician outside the bakery to get their attention, Mom and daughter take him in to play guitar and sing in his weak, nonthreatening voice at their bakery. They trust him immediately and by the next day he has the keys to their home and full access to their business where he searches their home and steals the computer passwords not so cleverly hidden under the keyboard and gets their iPhone passwords. Try harder, Mom. Too easy to find. He dates and beds them both at the same time and the women are so obtuse that they cannot figure it out they are dating the same dude. Cougar Mom has a young stud and daughter has a trendy millennial BF. Even when they both see each other coming home very late on alternate days and talking about a new mystery man they just met a few months ago they still do not realize it. Duh ladies, its the same guy.

Creeper con man is so fast with the excuses when he is caught in the act numerous times snooping or stealing that the women never catch on until it is too late. His motive is supposedly to take their bakery recipes as a way of getting back at women. Are recipes for pies and scones really that valuable? Guess so. He eventually forces a breakup with the daughter and proposes to the mother who is about 25 years his senior. But she bites and agrees to marry him just two days later. When the daughter finally figures it out, he brains her with a big rolling pin, zips her up in a body bag he just happened to have in his car and tosses her in the river outside of town. Like the Terminator, daughter survives the incident and catches a ride back into town with a long haired pickup driving bro only to confront Mom in her wedding dress about to get spliced with creeper. In the final battle, creeper is the recipient of a wack to the head by the daughter. Mom and daughter are friends again and all is well. Still pretty entertaining. No swearing, nudity or sex.
