The sequel to Dark Angel, Fallen Hearts, will air on Lifetime later tonight and hopefully, I’ll have a review of it up on Sunday. Kelly Rutherford is a bit underused as Jillian but she does get one good scene towards the end of the film and she makes for a stylish drunk. The other good thing about Dark Angel is that it mostly involves rich people instead of poor people, which means that, as opposed to the first film, everyone gets to wear nice clothes.Īnnalise Basso again makes all of us redheads proud in the role of Heaven but the film is really stolen by Jason Priestley, who appears to be having the time of his life playing the ambiguously evil Tony. The good thing is that Dark Angel seems to be aware of how silly all of the melodrama occasionally is. Every few minutes, someone else is popping up and either taunting Heaven for being from the hills or revealing that they’re actually one of her relatives. It’s just so over-the-top and implausible that you really can’t help but enjoy watching it all play out. Then again, that’s what makes a film like this fun. Everyone’s got a deep, dark secret and, at time, it gets a bit overwhelming trying to keep track of it all.

As opposed to Heaven, Dark Angel is full of twists and turns. Well, listen - a lot happens in Dark Angel.

Logan says that he doesn’t want anything to do with Heaven because he’s still angry over everything that happened during the previous movie but it’s pretty obvious that he’s still in love with her. It was at this point that I yelled, “HIS LAST NOVEL WAS THE LAST TYCOON!” and threw a shoe at the TV.Ĭomplicating matters even further is the fact that her old backwoods boyfriend, Logan (James Rittinger), is attending college in Boston. She says that Fitzgerland “saved the best for last,” with Tender Is The Night. At one point, she explains that her favorite writer is Shakespeare but that she also really loves Fitzgerald. AGCK! It’s a fate worse than spending the rest of your life brewing moonshine in the hills.Īnd, while dealing with all of this, Heaven is also trying to graduate from high school and hopefully get into an Ivy League college! She wants to study literature. And her two youngest siblings are living in Washington, D.C, where they’re undoubtedly surrounded by politicians and interns. For instance, one sister is living in a trailer. Her siblings aren’t doing quite as well as Heaven. Tony also demands that Heaven stop writing to her family but, of course, Heaven continues to try to reach out to them. Troy and Heaven soon find themselves falling in love, despite Tony’s demand that Heaven stay out of the maze. Troy suffers from depression and he’s been exiled to the maze because Jillian can’t stand the sound of dolls be made. The man it turns out is Troy Tatterton, Tony’s younger brother. “Excuse me, sir,” Heaven says, “I got lost in your hedge maze!” Inside the house, a handsome man (played by Jason Cermak) carefully crafts a doll’s face.’ She gets lost but eventually, she comes across a small house sitting in the middle of the maze. (Rich people always have a hedge maze.) So, of course, Heaven does just that.

Tony tells Heaven that, in order to thank him for his generosity, she’ll basically have to do everything that he says.įor instance, Tony tells Heaven that she is, under no circumstances, to enter the estate’s hedge maze.

Jillian doesn’t want Heaven to stay at the house for too long but Tony manages to change her mind. Jillian always has a drink in her hand and worries that Heaven will leave “hill grime” around the house. She also meets her grandmother, Jillian (Kelly Rutherford). She’s greeted by her stepgrandfather, Tony Tatterton (Jason Priestly), who tries to come across as being friendly but quickly reveals himself to be cold and manipulative. When we last saw Heaven Casteel (Annalise Basso), she was boarding a bus so that she could leave the backwoods of West Virginia and hopefully live with her mother’s wealthy family in Boston, Massachusetts.ĭark Angel picks up where Heaven left off, with Heaven arriving at stately and creepy Farthinggale Manor and discovering that the rich are just as fucked up as the poor.
