Death of a Cheerleader (1994)

In this made for television movie, Kellie Martin wants to be rich and popular like Tori Spelling, trying her darnedest to make it happen. Unfortunately Tori is kind of awful so it’s not a surprise that she is the cheerleader in the title. It’s the best quality you can expect from a TV movie based on a true story, which makes it trashy but entertaining. Oddly they made the murderer the most sympathetic character and the victim someone you’d hate. There’s also the added 1990s moral panic that the girl who dresses in black is bullied and also considered the prime suspect.
