All Men Are Perverts: Pretty much every male character acts creepily toward Becky: Rob the obsessed stalker, an unnamed guy who looks up her skirt, trash talking football players. The only exception is Jen's boyfriend Chris who shows genuine concern for her safety and wellbeing. | |

Trailers Always Spoil | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_143939c1 | comment |
Trailers Always Spoil: That scene from the Lifetime preview where Ms Flynn sprays Rob in the face - it's from the end of the movie. Potentially a massive spoiler in the Cheer Rally Kill promo which combines clips from five movies. About half way through, a girl with distinctive white fingernails pulls a mask off a blonde female. On closer inspection, this is almost certainly a clip of Becky unmasking Jen as a surprise villainess. This scene never made it into the original 2019 movie or the 2021 Back in Action update, so ultimately a subversion (unless a different version airs in the future). | |

Title Drop: Like all movies in this franchise the Vivica A. Fox character has to speak the title verbatim. Here the line comes after Ms Flynn subdues Rob with her mace spray. Becky adds another for good measure, getting the final line of dialogue.note In the original movie - there is additional dialogue from Rob and an unnamed cheerleader in the extended Back in Action ending. | |

Mr. Fanservice: Viewers sexually attracted to men will be happy to know one scene features the young, athletic Rob shirtless on a tennis court. A later scene has the topless Rob work out on a bench press while staring at photos of Becky. More sinister and creepy, but a treat for those into bad boys. | |

Villain Ball | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_1cc2ea8d | comment |
Villain Ball: When Rob descends into full psycho mode and breaks into Becky's house he photographs a letter to obtain information he can use to set Eliza up. Why he would need to do this is unclear, since Becky and Eliza are already in the house with him. Also attacking them at night in an isolated location makes much more sense than subduing Eliza and holding Becky hostage in broad daylight outside a school (where Ms Flynn is around to conveniently come to the rescue). | |

When Rob confronts Becky during the climax, she uses her own mace aerosol to escape his clutches. And then the coach shows up with her spray to put him down. | |

Ankle Drag: Happens to a female early on when she hides under a bed to escape a hooded stalker. In classic horror style, the terrified victim screams as she's pulled to her doom. Subverted as it turns out she lives. The girl in question is Rob's former girlfriend Amanda who survives to tell her story to Becky and Jen before suffering a presumably fatal attack in a restaurant kitchen. | |

The Wrong Cheerleader / int_4d044580 | comment |
Motive Rant: Rob's "reasoning" at the climax is rather lame and illogical, even by Lifetime psycho standards. He says Becky has turned everyone against him, when in reality she's the only character who defended him for most of the movie. Which he should know since he's spied and eavesdropped on her conversations throughout. | |

Crazy Jealous Guy: Whenever someone else shows the slightest interest in Becky, Rob takes offense. While out in a diner Rob grabs another boy by the scruff of the neck and makes his intentions very clear. In his defense the other guy was a pervert who tried to look up Becky's skirt. Rob kicks off in the locker room when his football teammates discuss Becky in a demeaning manner, and violently assaults another player. | |

Police Are Useless | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_59907e4f | comment |
Police Are Useless: No surprise given this is a Lifetime TV movie. Naturally it's left to the protagonist and her circle of friends to take down the psycho stalker. Detective Wilson refuses to take action against Rob giving an argument that cyber stalking is too tricky to investigate. Seems the local police are still living in the 20th century. In one particularly idiotic statement, the detective suggests ignoring minor offences and waiting for Rob to kill someone before taking action. He's likely referring to the investigation into Amanda's disappearance, but it sounds stupid nonetheless. | |

Freeze-Frame Bonus | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_62f9d08e | comment |
Freeze-Frame Bonus: There's a major continuity error in the sequence where Rob breaks into Becky's house. When he goes to take a picture of a letter it is clearly daylight outside, but dark when he enters and leaves the house itself. This is presumably a scene edited in after the original sequence was filmed to explain Rob's presence and set up the Back in Action ending where he kidnaps Eliza. Also his gloves suddenly go missing in this scene. Slowing down or watching stills of the second attack on Amanda suggests the person may someone other than Rob, as their hair is at an odd angle, they are roughly the same height as Amanda, and they appear to be wearing a wig / head covering of some description. This implies the killer may have been someone else in the original script. | |

It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time: At the outset Becky has everything going for her. She's a gifted student in good health with many friends and a bright future. It's only after she tries out for the school cheerleading team that Becky's performance at school nosedives (much to Eliza's disapproval) and events take a sinister turn. Perhaps having a love interest wasn't so important after all. | |

The Wrong Cheerleader / int_a4905771 | comment |
Double-Meaning Title: Initially the title is something of a mystery. While there are exceptions The Wrong part normally prefixes the movie's antagonist - The Wrong Student, The Wrong Stepmother etc. Here a male stalker is the villain, so Becky could be considered the wrong cheerleader since trying out fot the team was in retrospect a bad idea. There are two title drops near the end of the movie, indicating that Becky was the "wrong cheerleader" to mess with, but no real explanation is provided. | |

Market-Based Title: For some reason the movie was renamed The Wrong Cheerleader: Back in Action (the alternate version title) on IMDB from January to October 2021, but this has since reverted to the original The Wrong Cheerleader. While in development the working title was Crazed. For release in France the movie was given a rather long winded title: Ma fille, sous l'emprise de son petit ami. The English translation is My daughter, under the influence of her boyfriend. | |

Relationship Sabotage | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_bbdafd63 | comment |
Relationship Sabotage: Jen - arguably with good intent - goes to extreme lengths to convince Becky that Rob is dangerous. After a violent incident at a diner where Rob confronts another student, Jen has a lengthy discussion with Becky and Ms Flynn. Jen visits a friend (Sarah Peters) at Rob's old school to dig up dirt on him, and later arranges a meeting between Becky and Rob's ex-girlfriend Amanda who he stalked and abused. This doesn't end well for the witness. | |

Smash to Black | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_c8ce7b2d | comment |
Smash to Black: Soon after the hooded stalker grabs Amanda in the opening sequence the movie suddenly cuts to a black screen showing the title. This is normal for The Wrong franchise, and allowed the extended version Back in Action title to be added as a replacement later. | |

Revised Ending | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_d51158ee | comment |
Revised Ending: Appears to be the case given some major plot holes such as Jen not assisting Becky after Rob slaps her at the birthday party, or Rob going to great trouble to impersonate a school principal to kidnap Eliza when he could have done this at her house several minutes earlier. Trailer footage indicates a very different ending was filmed originally with Jen revealed as the main villain. | |

Has a Type: During a conversation between Becky, Jen and Amanda, it's established that Rob fancies cheerleaders with long, dark hair. | |

Not Quite Dead | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_e431c24c | comment |
Not Quite Dead: Amanda White - the female attacked during the pre-credit sequence - later shows up alive and well, and is able to provide Becky and Jen with key information on Rob's violent past. Only to get Killed Off for Real moments later. | |

The Wrong Cheerleader / int_e70127 | comment |
The Mole: Jen's boyfriend Chris is arguably one, supplying her (and Becky in turn) with plenty of dirt on his football teammate Rob. | |

High-School Dance | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_f0fc8518 | comment |
High-School Dance: In a sense. Here the party is for Jen's birthday with the teenage students casually dressed as opposed to the fancy formal wear associated with more traditional American proms. Still, this is a key scene in the movie where Rob finally gets violent with Becky. | |

Love Makes You Crazy | |
The Wrong Cheerleader / int_f96f8980 | comment |
Love Makes You Crazy: Desire for Becky's affection sends Rob completely over the edge, leading to many a tense encounter between the two - and violent clashes with potential rivals. | |

Pop-Up Texting: Three examples: Amanda at the beginning of the movie, Rob/Becky and Becky/Jen. Seems to be a thing among teenagers. | |
