* SelfPlagiarism: It's a Creator/DougCampbell movie, so this naturally happens. Trudee is an {{Expy}} of Gina from ''Film/StalkedByMyMother'' (right down to stealing scissors from a teen girl's bedroom),[[note]]and Trudee is played by Juliana Destefano, who had a small role in that movie[[/note]] while the climax is basically a rewrite of the climax from ''Film/DirtyTeacher''. Most tellingly, though, is how the entire premise takes inspiration from Campbell's 2012 thriller ''Home Invasion'', which also follows a serial burglar's loved one plotting to take revenge on a woman who killed them in self-defense (a key difference being that the loved one in this case is a ''sister'' instead of a girlfriend like in ''Home Invasion''.)

** Campbell and Destefano reunited for ''Look Who's Stalking'' in 2023, in which [[spoiler:she once again played a character who tries to avenge her brother's death by befriending the woman she blames for it and messing up her life]].

[[caption-width-right:300:That intense look in Trudee's eyes is ''not'' because some other garage sale customer is checking out the [[WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse Mickey]] and [[WesternAnimation/MinnieMouse Minnie]] salt-and-pepper shakers she had her heart set on.]]

* InTheStyleOf: Showing how self-referential the world of Lifetime movies is, this comes off as Creator/DougCampbell doing his take on Creator/DavidDecoteau's brand of Lifetime movie, with the [=SoCal=] setting, a ditzy heroine, a hunky guy and a CuteAndPsycho female villain. If you added Creator/VivicaAFox as the next door neighbor, this could easily end up being called something like ''The Wrong Shopping Buddy'' or ''The Wrong Gal Pal''.
