A Major Disappointment

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

It is encouraging that the film ends so strongly.Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a particularly memorable film

(spoiler warning) Admittedly I am a fan of lifetime movies, there's just something about the overall atmosphere that makes them oddly entertaining. But two in particular struck me (most likely in the spirit of silliness) to be Hitchcockian innovations in playing with suspense, perhaps that even the man himself had not thought up in his lifetime, this and A Job to Kill For (2006), A Job to Kill For was in the case of a plot twist that you never would have saw coming, and this one (Stranger in my House) is in the case of a woman apparently being victmized in the beginning... it later turning out that the apparent victimizer was the (perfectly level-headed and ethical) victim and he had a right to do what he did, then comes the first breakthrough that will make guys with a fetish for hot-headed chicks light up like they're in the presence of a deity, just when it seemed the apparently good-natured ethical perfectly level-headed young female was, you know just that, she's sweetly apologizing for leaving the living room wndow open then when the house owner makes a further reminder.... KABOOM, out she explodes and darts out of the chair.

Total Stranger or Stranger In My House was so typical LMN movie you could almost tell the story without even seeing the film. Top this bad story with bad actors and you got it. Where does LMN get these terrible actors from? Especially the women? Lindsey Crouse as the lady of the house was just terrible. Looking painfully dumb and stupid most of the time. Anyone could fool her. And in the likes of another bimbo, played by Zoe McLellan, she gets fooled into letting the idiot rent a space in her home. Of course the bimbo is nuts. With as much warmth as an iceberg, this actress not only looks stupid but she acts so bad you don't really care. Bad casting on these two ladies. Paige Moss as the daughter at least had some believability. And veteran actor Jay Thomas was so wasted in this it was embarrassing. Then there's the jerk nerd lab assistant played by a huckleberry finn type Jay Paulson. He just went around with this dumb look on his face when he appeared.These unforgettable performances and lousy script made this one of the worst I've seen on LMN. And I've seen a lot of losers.

This movie was bad. The story was clumsy, it made no sense the way the main characters would behave from one scene to the next. The cast was good for the most part; Lindsay Crouse and Paige Moss were a believable mother/daughter. Zoe McLellan may have been hamstrung by the bad story or maybe she is a bad actress, I'm not sure. Jay Thomas is like Robert Horry scoring reliably for the LA Lakers, a talented veteran underused. The way that lighting and music is used to try and create tension brought me mirth instead. This film is horribly clichéd and very predictable. I cannot compare it with any movies without giving the whole movie away. After ten minutes the viewer will know already how things are going to end. I found this movie boring indeed. It is only watchable if you are a fan of the elusive Paige Moss, or of one of the other stars.

The movie was enjoyable to watch and Lindsay Crouse and Zoe McClellan did fine jobs with their roles. As the movie wore on though it seemed so much like "Pacific Heights" with McClellan as the female equivalent to Michael Keaton's character in "Heights".
