Moviecut—Stalked by a Reality Star

Ok so we have a hormonal teenager who isn't quite over the loss of her father and makes up stories about the doctor her mom's been dating so she sneaks out and meets a perv reality star and agrees to go on a date with him lying about her age. When he takes her to his place and makes a move on her and suddenly she's terrified. She tells him her true age but he tries to assault her. She tells her mom but she doesn't believe her. So what does mom do? She starts dating perv who's obviously at least 10 years her junior! In my layman's opinion both mom and daughter need their heads examined! LMN at it again with stupid unrealistic storylines! Cynthia Preston is still gorgeous though!

Unlikely scenario of a reality star who becomes obsessed with a teenage girl. Why her? No good reason. Things play out routinely by Lifetime thriller standards. Not a must watch.

"Stalked by a Reality Star" is really the story of a mother and her daughter. Linn Peterson supports young Kendra on a nurse's salary after the death of her husband, who died in one of the wars fought in the Middle East. The mother-daughter relationship is a see-saw affair as Linn seeks to find harmony while coexisting with an angst-ridden teen. Linn and Kendra enjoy watching a popular reality television show called "Finding Love" starring an actor named Bradley (Brad) Banton. When Kendra and her bestie Misha attend the Hollywood Helps Charity Ball, Kendra meets the dashing Brad, whom she calls the most eligible man in the galaxy. It turns out that Brad is actually living in another galaxy when he becomes obsessed with Kendra after they shared extra dirty vodka martinis at the ball. The stalking ensues in which Brad even shows up at Kendra's high school when she is auditioning for Portia in Shakespeare's "The Merchant of Venice." Kendra is appalled by Brad, who clearly has some screws loose. In the hospital where she works, Linn has been involved in a clandestine affair with a doctor, Ty Warson. But Linn falls into despair after Dr. Ty dumps her. It is at that point while on the rebound that the vulnerable Linn meets the charismatic Brad Banton. Linn believes that Brad is paying special attention to her and instantly becomes whipped on Brad as if she were a schoolgirl. Of course, Brad is only taking advantage of Linn in order to get closer to her daughter. After Kendra informs her mother that Brad has been abusive to her, Linn uncharacteristically refuses to believe her. This was most problematic part of the film because it made no sense that Linn would have such a complete turnaround in the lack of faith in her daughter. As her mother, she should have been able to tell that Kendra would not be making up such a detailed story. Brad has led a sheltered life protected by his "manager," who turns out to be his smother mother who is just as obsessed about Brad and he is with Kendra. His former girlfriend, Allison Trasker, drove off a cliff to her death due to the maneuvering of the mother. Now, it appears that Kendra and her "wingman" friend Jake are in danger of the same fate. The filmmakers developed good tension in a story of Cinderella in reverse gears. Linn comes to the rescue of Kendra after finding her daughter's missing shoe in Brad's home. But it turned out that this silver slipper did not fit for Kendra, who had recognized Brad for a pervert that from the beginning. All that remains is for the rekindling of the inseparable bond of a mother and her daughter as they expose the sad underbelly of what Brad's mother called "this nasty world."

Regardless of his mother being just as much of a kook as he was, the main girl kisses him as a thank you for taking a bullet for her. Add to the fact that near the end of the movie, it's made to look as if the stalker was just as much of a victim in all of this... has me puzzled.

Who writes these stories?!?!?! It's all the same been there done that. The teenage victim is having a hard time convincing any adults that she's being stalked. Even her own mother, who starts dating the stalker (yeah, really), doesn't believe her. So the victim, along with one of her male friends, breaks into the stalkers house. Of course the stalker sees her breaking in via a video alert and races home. The victim and her friend while in the stalkers bedroom, hear the stalker pulling into the driveway. The girl says lets get out of here and proceeds to leave. The male friend says "you go, I'll be right behind you." Really?!?!?! She runs downstairs and out the back door and then turns around talking out loud asking where her friend is. Cut back to the bedroom and the friend is taking a pic of the stalkers wall of photos. As if he could not have taken a pic in 2 seconds and been out the door with her! I don't know why I keep turning to LMN. I need help!

One of the most stupid movies ever,I purposely tortured myself to watch until the end for the heck of it.Lead actress character and her mother character roles were the most irritating it was actually hilarious and pitiful at the same time.

It wasn't too bad until the evil mother became a factor in the plot near the end. Then it really jumped the shark. What I was thinking, and hoping, was this relationship with the guy was all in the girls head and just a dilusion. I wish. The climax ending was stupid. And in typical fashion for 99% of all Lifetime movies, the woman got clobbered, but gets right up again to grab the gun. Wow, what a surprise that is! Overall the acting was not bad. Actually Emily Bader was good.

This is worse than Stalked by My Doctor sequels, but better then most other Lifetime movies. It's about criminal, psychopath, stalker, spy, killer, fame, obsession, corruption, law, police, lie, truth. Those two missing starts are lack of comedy and few missed details like why not every possible evidence is not used, and there are no jokes. Lesson is to always have a proof, protection, defense, plan, confidence, backup, because lack of such things will make us weaker than our enemy or perpetrator. Also we got insight that in fact even psychopaths could be just victims of bigger psychopaths, in this case child is absorbing and is victim of his mother's ideas.
