Vacation Home Nightmare Familiar LMN theme: group of female friends rent a vacation house at the beach to lay in the sun and party. In this case, it was only ten miles from the lead character's house - so not far away, and her house was almost as nice as the rental, with pool and floor-to-ceiling windows, etc., as was her friend Alesha's house. It never said what she/Danielle and Alesha did for a living, if anything at all, but as usual with 99 out of 100 Lifetime flicks, young single women (and single mothers) live in expensive luxurious resort-style houses. The plot is dumb: a guy is still upset over his marriage ending and the way his wife treated him, so he becomes a murderous psychopath based on his conviction that all women who get divorced due to their husbands cheating on them should be murdered as punishment - along with anyone else in their lives. At the end when he was about to murder Danielle, he was nice enough to take time out in his murderous rampage to explain to her the reason why: because she had the nerve to come to a vacation rental to have fun after she dumped her husband whom she had cheated on. Just as I was thinking, "Why would he care what she did? (and he was wrong about her being the one who had committed adultery) Is he related to her ex-husband or something?", she asked him the same question: "Why do you care?" Like another reviewer said, there were plot holes that made the movie hard to follow. For example, it wasn't clear what Anton poured bleach on in the plastic bag that Danielle plucked out of the trash bin he put it in. Then she stupidly left it on her kitchen counter - a trash bag with evidence in it that was filled with bleach. Not smart to leave it anywhere in the house - much less on the kitchen counter. Also, it never showed her finding out about Jack's murder. So up to the very end, when she said she wanted to put it all behind her and move on (which was a lot of death and craziness to sweep aside like mere dust under the carpet), she might have STILL been under the wrong impression that he stood her up and went away. Justin Berti seems to be the new regular LMN male lead, mainly as the villain, since this makes the third or fourth one I've seen in which he's the main bad guy. He's certainly good at it and is the only reason I rated VHN above zero, even though his motive in this one is absurd. Grade F / 2 out of 10.

Vacation Home Nightmare is an absolute disaster of a movie. The story follows a cliché premise of a newly divorced woman and her friends going on a vacation, but unfortunately, the execution falls flat on its face. The script is poorly written and the acting is terrible, and the characters are uninteresting and unrelatable. The film tries to create tension and suspense, but instead, it just becomes laughable. Moreover, the movie has several plot holes that make it difficult to follow the story. In summary, Vacation Home Nightmare is a complete waste of time. Save yourself the trouble and skip this one.

Danielle Banks who's divorced and her 2 gfs get away to a short-term rental complete with a pool, a nearby beach with cute guys and a lurker! Danielle hits it off with James who head back to her place for some make-out time. But little do they know, they are being watched by the lurker. James and Danielle plan to meet up the following day for a "non-date". Unfortunately, James ends up getting killed when Danielle thinks he stood her up. When she heads back to the rental, she gets attacked by a hooded intruder. A detective shows up to get her statement as well as 2 rental brokers who want to offer the girls an upgrade for all the hassle and make them sign a contract agreeing to the terms and avoid any negative review posted about the rental but they refuse, leave, and are tracked but by who and why? You'll have to watch this one but I would skip it. Not a very good movie with a weird plot!!! It's usually hit or miss with Lifetime movies, anyhow.

Newly divorced after her husband cheated , a young woman & her gal pals decide to take a mini vacation. A day on the beach brings her a potential love interest but there's already someone that has taken interest & he has evil intentions. Bad script. Bad acting. Uninteresting characters. Plot holes. Yep. This is a smorgasbord of WTF-ness that makes one wonder how films like this get made. The concept was fine but the delivery was uninspired and boring. The best part of the film is the house. The rental house was beautiful. I don't usually like to hate on Lifetime movies but this one has left me with no other choice. Films like these are the reason Lifetime movies have got such a bad rap.

Nothing about Dani was worth dying for and it was so unnecessary for her ex-husband and the new guy who was interested in her to lose their lives on her behalf. I thought it was so petty that she wouldn't tell her ex-husband, Craig, why he couldn't stay in the house. She hated him that much? Then she cried over his body when she could have prevented it. She should feel guilty about that for the rest of her life. I didn't see the point of the third friend. The screentime and time with Dani between the two friends was so uneven that I just knew the "twist" would have the third friend be the villain's accomplice. The villain made no sense. Having a psychotic breakdown after a divorce to the point that you kill women who are divorced? How would he know the difference btwn the various reasons for the divorces? This doesn't apply to Dani, but what if it was an abusive marriage? Or if there was an affair? Utterly stupid reasoning. Why is he stalking her off the property? What was the point of killing Jack? And poor Jack, left to decompose in his home for a woman he'd only known for a few hours. As someone else mentioned, the best thing about the movie was the house and the scenery. I am here for any shots of the beach. Which is sort of another criticism I have. I recognize these movies don't have huge budgets, but I wish they would make the homes their own characters more often than they do. I mean it was the psycho's house so it would have been cool to see them use the house against him. Think Wait Until Dark, where by the climax, the apartment felt claustrophobic, but Susy's knowledge of it helped her save her own life. Now I want to go watch that film. It's amazing. This is not a movie I plan to watch again. Not even as background noise. If you want to watch a vacation home nightmare movie, watch Fatal Getaway instead. It's not a Hitchock thriller, but it's better than this.

While it may not be a new version of "Charlie's Angels," this film offers a set of three dynamic women, who move into action against a psychopathic killer. Danielle, Aleesha, and Hannah are the three feisty women who decide to rent a special house near the beach to "celebrate" the impending divorce of Danielle. Hannah is an attorney; Aleesha has boundless energy; and Danielle is looking for a fresh start after her husband Craig had been unfaithful. The major flaw of the film was in the lack of imagination in conceiving the villain. After murdering Laura Winters, Anton took over the ownership of the property rented by the three amigas. He was able to eavesdrop on the women's conversations through a hidden camera and recording device. It made no sense that his only motivation to kill Danielle was because she was divorcing her husband. There was too much collateral damage in this unpleasant film. In addition to poor Laura Winters, the nice man whom Danielle met at the beach was killed, as well as the contrite husband Craig, who adored Danielle and wanted to make amends. Anton's sidekick, Mike, also met an untimely end after he discovered Anton's past transgressions and sought to warn Danielle. There was some good location filming, especially the vacation rental house from hell. But the film only merits three stars, one for each of the vivacious amigas.
