How does "Obsession" differ from your run-of-the-mill Lifetime movie?

It seems the movie is a huge hit, society can't stop talking about it and the main actress has become an A-List Celebrity overnight. Now granted I haven't watched the movie yet but from what I've heard, the plot sounds no different from a typical Lifetime movie. Something that would be titled "The Dangerous Girl" or "A Fatal Fixation". Is society living under a rock and doesn't realize Lifetime is consistently putting out sinister movies like this? Now granted the quality of acting, cinematography and production probably doesn't match Obsession, but is that really the difference to these people?

What Lifetime related opinion of yours will have you in this situation?

Vivica A Fox’s ‘Wrong’ movie series peaked in the 2010s. Not long after that the quality of the movies started going downhill, and they’re not as hyped up as they used to be. Nowadays they’re pretty much there to fill up space.

There was also the spinoff series “Keeping Up with the Joneses” which is also apart of the Wrong franchise but it’s also very confusing. It could have been its own separate movie franchise. Even though the franchise is getting old and losing relevancy, what isn’t getting old is Ms. Vivica Fox delivering her same iconic line at end of every movie “looks like they were the wrong [insert thing here]”. I realized it wasn’t until later on in the series that she began using that line.

One of the best performances of all time. Meredith Baxter didn't pretend to be Betty she became Betty.

Love this movie

Haven't seen anyone mention this one ...

Hayden was great in this movie. Something about the mother-daughter bond she and Joely Richardson depicted really struck a nerve with me.

So much talent. Gone way too soon.

Hayden Panettiere in Murder on Trial in Italy

​

I thought this movie was well done. Hayden Panettiere was excellent as Amanda Knox. I was sad to learn of her passing today at age 36. RIP, beautiful, talented soul.

Molly Ringwald

Does anyone remember a movie from the 90s (?) she was in where everything was opposite? For example when she wanted to diet she would eat ice cream sundaes. I think it was an alternate world type thing or dream?
