Lifetime's 'Flowers in the Attic' - Jan. 18, 2014 - Blu-ray Forum

Dubstar · 12-21-2013, 03:54 AM

Based on V.C. Andrews’ controversial book that quickly became a cult classic, the Lifetime Original Movie "Flowers in the Attic" weaves the twisted story of the Dollanganger kids who, after the unexpected death of their father, are convinced by their mother Corrine (Heather Graham) to stay hidden in the attic of their wealthy grandparents’ mansion so she can reclaim the family fortune. But as her visits begin to wane after she becomes involved with a new husband (Dylan Bruce), the children endure unimaginable treatment at the hands of their ruthless grandmother Olivia Foxworth (Ellen Burstyn). As years go by and the eldest children Cathy (Kiernan Shipka) and Christopher (Mason Dye) come of age, both emotionally and physically, their family’s sordid past entraps them further as they look to each other for comfort.

Flowers in the Attic

~~

word is that its more faithful to the book than the 1987 movie .... ew.

even the trailer for the TV version is a tad shocking.

So it is a movie, based on the commercials I thought perhaps it was a series.

They need to make a miniseries out of Petals on the Wind. That would be some hilarious, disturbing camp comedy.
