The direction, acting, and production values here are very inconsistent, shifting from just okay to quite good, but the story unfolds in a way that is very intriguing and it really keeps your interest throughout. At times, very dramatic and, at others, very campy, but it's all fun and worthwhile.
Brec Bassinger as Dawn can be quite excellent, and Kobe Clarke (as Jimmy) is consistently good in a heartfelt performance. Donna Mills has her most villainous role since Abby in "Knot's Landing," and she nails it here. Always good to see her. The same with Jesse Metcalfe, quite good as Dawn's "father", and Fran Drescher, who is always a hoot and really adds to the camp here. All in all, a worthwhile, good but not great, way to spend your summer evenings.
