oh my days that was awful!

its like someone had the book and tore a few random pages out and thought 'okay well make a film out of these random pages!'.

and paul Sheffield dead at the beginning? missed out the nwhole relationship with cathy.

Julian was like I thought hed look- a cross between Lee Mead and Hugh Jackman ! but Madame was vital to the story as was Yolanda.

Chris didn't have a fiancé. Carrie didn't escape from school Cath and Chris went to get her when she was locked up.

(I know the book readers know all this!)

Carrie had a slow death and made a tearful 'theres Cory and daddy waiting for me'. and wouldn't leave an obvious poison jar on the counter.

Corrine still a bad actress.

granma was scary though with no hair!

Bart I always thought would be a Tom Selleck type.

oh it was just so lame. I satyed with it to the end expecting something decent to happen but nooooo.

My Sweet Audrina is next ... Now there's a crazy plot Shock

AnyoneForTARDIS · 19/09/2014 17:51

theyre not going to continue the FITA books are they?

I wish someone would make a decent one about the Heaven/Dark angel series.

IHaveBrilloHair · 19/09/2014 17:53

The Heaven books were my favourite.
VA totaly obsessed with incest though, very odd

AnyoneForTARDIS · 19/09/2014 18:18

I preffered the Heaven series to FITA TBH.

yy obsessed with incest!

douchbag · 19/09/2014 22:30

It'll be in catch up I'm sure.

RobinSparkles · 20/09/2014 13:45

"Bart I always thought would be a Tom Selleck type."

YY! That's exactly how I imagined him too, when I read it.

I haven't watched PITW yet but I've recorded it. I was disappointed with the Flowers In The Attic one.

It didn't convey the eeriness and sadness that the book had, IMO.

Mammuzzamia · 20/09/2014 14:47

Tim Burton would have done Flowers well. But I'm thinking Hammer Horror also.

Neither of them would touch Petals on the Wind with a bargepole though Grin

AnyoneForTARDIS · 20/09/2014 16:59

the one who played Cathy was very pretty but not exactly blonde and blue eyed.

and chris looked and acted like a totem pole!

Carrie was very pretty but no bigger head as in book! just short.

and Henny? talking? no colourful notes and hand signals? think they fused her with Emma.

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 20/09/2014 19:20

I'm thinking about suggesting the first book to ds, he'd love it! Is that very wrong?Grin

AnyoneForTARDIS · 20/09/2014 20:54

DAME I know a sibling pair in rl that are a bit too close IMO.

MAy be nothing, but thinking about this book ........

But I remember the very 1st time I read FITA and the rest (BTW the prequel, Garden of shadows, the grans story is fascinating) I was shit scared about the attic, slept with light on for a week after, and when Cory died I was in floods for another week!

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 20/09/2014 21:14

I have him a quick synopsis of it and ds said 'that sounds crap mum'Hmm

Oh wellGrin

I remember being upset about Carrie too! I also remember lying in bed trying to work out exactly how I'd escape if I was in the attic!

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 20/09/2014 21:15

Have = gave

AnyoneForTARDIS · 21/09/2014 21:03

FITA is on agin on lifetime channel.

TeaAddict235 · 22/09/2014 21:22

this is a lot steamier than I remember from the books. DH started watching with full concentration during those sex scenes! I told him at the beginning of the program that I loved reading the series, now I feel a bitBlush

Figster · 22/09/2014 21:25

Will watch them at the weekend when dh out im expecting full on trash sounds like I won't be disappointed

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 22/09/2014 22:52

The books were very steamy, that's why we loved themWink

IHaveBrilloHair · 23/09/2014 00:02

I remember thinking at the time that they should leave Chris and Cathy to be together, it was fine and they were in love.
Hahhhaha, ewwwwwwwww, creepy.

TeaAddict235 · 23/09/2014 13:38

dame, now now ladies Wink

DameDiazepamTheDramaQueen · 23/09/2014 22:03

They just showed the wanking scene as an ad for lifetime movies, how funny!Grin

FoxSticks · 25/09/2014 12:36

I remember thinking that too Brillo! Weird to think that now! Are they doing any more or is that it now?

KeeperOfBees · 25/09/2014 13:05

FoxSticks · 25/09/2014 19:14

I decided to take a stroll down memory lane and buy the books on my kindle and they aren't available! How is it possible that this well loved trash series of books aren't on the kindle? Shock
