The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

A middle aged lesbian pedophile teacher at a boarding school grooms a straight underage female pupil. She showers her with gifts to gain her trust her, and graduarly starts behaving more and more inappropriately, giving her birth control pills, phone, a key to her apartment, Pretending to be her friend, when all she's really doing is thinking of raping her.All through the film teacher has a creepy look on her face, watching the student in a gross way. I guess the moral of the story is that sexual predators come in all forms. Not worth watching if that sort of thing grosses you out.

The only reason this film gets above a 2 is that you can watch it as a spoof. The age old plot of the older , creepy obsessing teacher and the younger student has been with us for a while now, or at least for as long as the lawsuit awards against schools hit seven figures.The acting by the teacher chick is OK, the student is pretty flat though. The odd thing about it is , the obsessing teach never puts any sort of moves on the kid, so, whats the point? Is it sort of a fantasy like when a gal is befriending an older, generous man, and she swears they are "just friends" and she doesn't\'t have to do anything for the gifts?, and everybody from her grade school aged brother to, like, the dog are are going -"yea, right......"? The none too subtle lesbonic subtext is about as subtle as a ulceritive colitics BM after a night of drinking pure grain alcohol with a meal of spicy salmonella curry. Yet, no "lesbfriends" actions ever occur. My theory is the "mental, non physical affair" that is the rage on the talk show circuit right now, is what the writers have in mind. MAJOR cred problems.Who makes this stuff? You get the feeling someone wanted to be an actress , and they're rich father made a movie and put them in it. Anyway, if your napping in front of the TV and it is the only thing on, it is worth watching for a laugh until you nod off, and don't worry about falling asleep because when you do, you won't miss anything.

A teacher becomes obsessed with a student, and starts helping her out. But just how far will this teacher go to get her way? Duh. Duh. Duh!!!!Creeped out? Me neither. Too be fair, there are several competent performances. Boti Bliss is convincing and surprisingly sympathetic as the crazy teacher. Mia Rose Frampton is OK as the lead, but won't win any Oscars. But there are just way too many problems with the film. The location, supposedly a high- end girls school, is barely seen. Most of the action takes play in random rooms with no connection to one another. We don't know if we're in a dorm, or an apartment, or a luxury condo, and frankly, we don't care. There are themes of insanity that just don't ring true. The movie thinks it's disturbing, but it doesn't go the full mile with it. We don't get the feeling that this teacher is truly a threat. She's just this sad sick woman. I felt sorry for her more than the main character. The movie thinks it's smarter than it is, playing with these concepts that it just can't properly explore with its TV movie limitations.I liked, however, the scene with the mom and the daughter, where we discover how far corruption has played in their lives. That worked. They should have expanded on it more. The ending made it fall apart. And we have a completely pointless "1 year later" for a scene that didn't need that time jump to work. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone really. It's less than mediocre.

For the person who wrote this horrendous story, you can get rid of tenured teachers. It's a long drawn out process. 3 year sabbaticals? You must be kidding. No one would get that for any reason, especially for a mental defect. You can say goodbye to teaching forever.This ridiculous film deals with the obsession of a teacher towards students. The woman is emotionally seriously ill as she tries to supposedly aid her students.One such student falls under her spell. When it turns out that she helped her mother when the two women attended college together, I was ready to freak out.This was nothing more than simply awful fanfare.
