History Film / StalkedByMyDoctor

* IronicEchoCut: From Beck's epic "I AM A '''DOCTOR'''!" meltdown to Mr. Green saying "I think you guys are overreacting."

* AgeGapRomance: Melissa tells Beck that she prefers older men.

* ShesGotLegs: Beck's targets all have plenty of scenes where they wear shorts or short skirts.

* VillainousBreakdown: After Dr. Beck just happens to show up at a coffee house (that [[BlandNameProduct most certainly isn't supposed to be Starbucks]]) where Sophie and her friend Kaitlyn are hanging out, and invites Sophie (and only Sophie) to go to a movie with him, Sophie says no. Beck goes to a nearby alley and completely loses it: throwing around garbage, bashing his arm against a dumpster, denouncing Sophie as a "little bitch", and repeatedly reminding himself "I AM A '''DOCTOR'''!"

* SpiritualSuccessor: The twin 2021 Lifetime movies ''Deceived by My Mother-In-Law'' and ''Mommy's Deadly Con Artist'' seem like an attempt to start a new franchise with a DistaffCounterpart to Dr. Beck, a wily sixtysomething BitchInSheepsClothing ConArtist played by Dey Young (best-known as Kate Rambeau in ''Film/RockAndRollHighSchool''). This was emphasized when Creator/EricRoberts showed up, ''as a doctor'', in ''Mommy's Deadly Con Artist''.

* AmbiguousDisorder: With his delusions and hallucinations, Dr. Beck seems to have a pretty deep case of schizophrenia, but it's never specifically labeled as such.

* ShownTheirWork: Uncle Roger realizes Beck isn't on the level based on a rather arcane bit of knowledge--the fact that Beck claims to have lived in [[UsefulNotes/{{Utah}} Salt Lake City]], but has no familiarity with the city's unique numbered grid system for street naming. Not only does Roger correctly describe how the grid works, but 800 South and 300 East is in fact an intersection in a residential part of the city (and there's a big apartment apartment complex at that corner).

* ''Stalked by My Doctor: A Sleepwalker's Nightmare'' (2019): Now a fugitive, Dr. Beck steals the identity of Dr. Mason Tanner and goes to work at a sleep clinic. His first patient is Michelle Miller, who suffers from "sexsomnia", a genuine condition in which sufferers sleepwalk in pursuit of carnal pleasure. He soon learns that her young niece Katie has come to live with her. She has a sleepwalking condition too, but in her case, she becomes highly suggestible when she sleepwalks, a condition that Dr. Beck has numerous ideas to exploit. Besides being a ''Stalked by My Doctor'' installment, this movie is also technically a sequel to ''Film/SleepwalkingInSuburbia'', a 2017 LifetimeMovieOfTheWeek about sexsomnia, with Emilie Ullerup reprising her role as Michelle.

* ''Stalked by My Doctor'' (2015): High school senior Sophie Green is seriously injured in a car accident caused by her boyfriend texting-and-driving. Dr. Beck gives her a heart transplant, but becomes smitten with her. After misinterpreting some innocent comments and gestures by Sophie as declarations of love, he pursues her, becoming more unhinged as he goes.

* MurderTheHypotenuse: [[spoiler:Beck attempts to do this, while at the same time getting Alex the heart transplant she needs, when he finds out her boyfriend Scott has the same blood type as her]].

* DependingOnTheWriter: The first three movies were written and directed by Doug Campbell, with others taking over those roles for the other two. The fourth and fifth films have a definite change in tone, with Beck going from a mere {{Yandere}} into AxCrazy territory, including violent acts of identity theft.

* StealthSequel: As mentioned above, this is actually a {{Crossover}} between two of Johnson Production Group's productions for Lifetime, the Dr. Beck movies and ''Film/SleepwalkingInSuburbia'', though that movie was a bit more serious in tone than this one.

** Michelle's account of her past sexsomnia experiences is a plot synopsis of ''Sleepwalking in Suburbia'', to help viewers who haven't already seen that movie.[[note]]Though her memory is a bit off, since her neighbor Luke wasn't repeatedly "taking advantage" of her. They had sex once during a sleepwalking episode, and he wasn't aware she was sleepwalking. As his own marriage fell apart, he started pursuing Michelle, who couldn't remember the episode, and flatly rejected him, but he's ultimately the movie's SacrificialLion rather than its villain. Michelle also conveniently left out the movie's most notorious scene: she sleepwalks to the house of her friend Kate, gets in bed with her, and ''[[GirlOnGirlIsHot both women make out with each other]] in their sleep'' until they wake up horrified[[/note]]

* ZombieGait: Michelle's walk when she's in sexsomnia mode resembles this (a carryover from ''Sleepwalking in Suburbia'').

This was emphasized when Creator/EricRoberts showed up, ''as a doctor'', in ''Mommy's Deadly Con Artist''.

* HandWave: TheReveal that [[spoiler:Melissa has been working in cahoots with Sophie, including the claim that Melissa and Sophie have been besties since they were six years old, to the extent that they view each other as being like sisters. So how come we heard not a peep about Melissa in the first movie? The attempted explanation is that Melissa just happened to move out of town when they started high school.]]

* DenserAndWackier: While loaded with bizarre moments, the first two movies play things generally straight tone-wise. Starting with ''Patient's Revenge'', the series turns into deliberate {{Camp}}.
