Most Disturbing Lifetime Movies
I am a huge fan of lifetime movies. Some lifetime movies are love stories and lighthearted movies. But these movies below however are definitely not those. In my opinion, these are some of the most twisted and disturbing lifetime movies I have ever seen.
Watching lifetime movies are addicting. They are so easy to watch, and I find myself immersed in them, unable to turn it off. What I love is that they are often based on real life stories.

This movie tells the horrifying story of Elisabeth Fritzl, who was imprisoned by her father, Josef in Austria in 1984. For 24 years, she was locked away from the rest of the world in the basement of her family home. During her time in the basement, she gave birth to seven children. Three remained with her, three were brought upstairs and raised by her unsuspecting mother and one died at birth. She subequently was finally freed in 2008 and reunited with her mother and her children.
