A Recipe for Seduction. The movie premiered on December 13th, but since I stick to streaming services, I washed my chicken crumb covered hands of it.
But love, and the Colonel, always find a way, because the movie’s just… right there on the KFC YouTube channel. Like.
All of it.
I clutched a hand to my quivering bosom and prepared myself to be whisked away by Mario Lopez for… 16 minutes.
The movie’s only 16 minutes?!
That means if you watched the trailer (and I know you did, we
all did), you’re already 1/16th of the way there, so might as well crank on the stove and set your heart ablaze with herbs and spices. Not ALL the spices, though, because for all the laughs we had about the premise the movie is not nearly as over-the-top as it could’ve (and should’ve) been.
Did KFC and Lifetime hit the mark?
A Recipe for Seduction is about an heiress who falls for the new chef: Mario Lopez s Colonel Harland Sanders.
Lifetime December 14, 2020
It was a short 15 minutes, packed with flavor. The latest chapter in the saga of sexy Colonel Sanders played with a treasure trove of stereotypes, branded red and white colors used in various scenes and perfectly placed fried chicken.

comments Recipe for Seduction, the Lifetime short starring Mario Lopez as a hunky Colonel Sanders, is nothing but an extended KFC commercial. It doesn t honestly pretend to be anything else. The movie opens with a male announcer s gravelly voice telling viewers that this piping-hot love affair of deep-fried romantic goodness is presented by Kentucky Fried Chicken.
The next 15 minutes is basically a bucket of Original Recipe with a side order of melodrama. In Recipe for Seduction, the sweet Jessica Mancera (Justine Alpert) rejects a proposal from her boyfriend Billy Garibaldi (Chad Doreck), who is the human equivalent of an IZOD sweater. This enrages her mother, Bunny (Tessa Munro).
