The Wrong Roommate

It seems as of late that a continuing theme keeps raising it's head in these lifetime movies.

But really now, is this the only why these weak AF writers know how to pad the run time of these low-fat zero sugar weaker than two percent milk drama/thriller/crime/romance or whatever they are movies is to install not one iota of common sense in these wooden characters. Which leads to astonishing disbelief and a face palming WTF was that responses from the sane viewing audience at what just transpired on their flat screens.

And it's these idiotic decision making tendencies that take me completely out of the ball game.

I will admit that FF was my best friend during some of the cheesier dialog and the fact that security lights, cameras and door locks were not applied throughout this movie, even with the possessive ex-fiance dropping by unannounced.

Soooo, I have no idea what movie those here scoring this higher than a four watched, but it wasn't "The Wrong Roommate"

"The Lodger - Evil Upstairs".

Some of the beach-side locations for this film look fantastic!

Pretty professor (Jessica Morris) stays in her absent sister's house to babysit her teenage niece. But there is a charming artist renting a room there who happens to be set up by her ex. From the title you can tell he's a bit more than anyone bargained for.

There are not too many surprises here - but it's mindlessly diverting to watch things unfold. Strange cameo by Eric Roberts - what happened to his teeth? If you need a trashy Lifetime thriller - it's okay.

While her sister is in China on a business trip, beautiful blonde Jessica Morris (as Laurie Valentine) house-sits her luxurious estate. The college professor must also keep an eye on her sister's attractive 17-year-old niece. Also staying on the estate is muscular show-off Jason-Shane Scott (as Alan). The hunk is an artist who lives in the attic. Conflict arises when Ms. Morris' ex-fiancé keeps visiting, unannounced. He wants Morris back in bed. She has her eye on Mr. Scott, which isn't hard to fathom. Scott's physique is eye-catching. When the two meet, Morris wears a red bikini and denim shorts that flatter the female form very nicely. Later, she appears in black underwear. You get the feeling these bodies will hook up...

Prolific actor Eric Roberts appears. It seems, from the opening minutes, like Mr. Roberts is the star; yet, his is a supporting role. Roberts ties for second male supporting actor. The college professors speak more like seventh graders than professional teachers. Roberts discovers a plot twist that strains credulity. Lobster art is a hot commodity, apparently. Also receiving top billing is Vivica A. Fox. She appears late in the running, looking incredulous. Later, she looks incredulous again. Others in the cast are occasionally less singular in their performances. Roberts and the extras make the most of their roles. The leading players certainly look good. Unfortunately, "The Wrong Roommate" is a very dumb TV movie.

Vivica A FOX will say yes to ANYTHING!!

This awful, sad, pathetic, so called "movie" proves she has hit rock bottom!

A plethora of of unheard of "actors" pitiful plot, and seems like it was filmed at the director's OWN home!

Vivica is the ONLY actress in this mess that I ever heard of and that's saying a lot!
