TV movies are usually TV movies for a reason: They stink! Of course this doesn't apply to all the made for TV films, but in my experience, most of them have been quite bad. Usually they have at least one known actor/actress, but in most cases it's a has-been, as is the case of this film, which has former Charlie's Angels' Cheryl Ladd and Michael York. And to make it worst, this particular film is a complete rip off of another film.. made in the same year!
"Perfect Little Angels" starts with the Freedman family moving to a new City. Elain (Cheryl Ladd) is Justine's (Jody Thompson) mother, and they hope they can be happy with their new lives. Soon after their arrival, Dr. Calvin Lawrence (Michael York) visits them, and after welcoming them to town, he gives them a present: vitamins, made by himself. Nice gift. Dr. Lawrence is the most respected guy in town, he's in charge of a lot of stuff, and everyone looks up to him.
The town itself. Well, it's no surprise to see that everyone in this town has no life, all they do is study, and they never even think about doing something that would be wrong. The only 'normal' people Justine meets at school are Mitch (Brendan Fehr) and Lois (Tanja Reichert), but one of these will soon become like the rest of the inhabitants of this perfect city.
Does any of this sound familiar? Well, it should, unless you've never heard of "Disturbing Behaviour". This film is a complete rip-off of the film I just mentioned, the only difference is tha genre of the characters, in here it's a new girl in town, instead of James Marsden; here he meets Mitch, instead of Katie Holmes; Here Lois is transformed into one of them, instead of Nick Stahl. And here it's those dumb vitamins that control the people, simpler than the method used in Disturbing Behvaiour.
Even before seeing half of this movie, it was already in my junk-list. Avoid, trust me, you'd rather watch Disney's cartoons.
