The Wrong House

Really!!!!! is this based off a true story seriously, wow SMH does the wife not watch lifetime to know that things like this happen in real life wow, He should have left her and took the daughter, if the chips are down she's never going to have his back. I love the husband in all movies he is awesome!. Lifetime... really do better please. These women were all dumbbbbbbbb

I'll fully admit that LMN movies are written with the mentality just shading Harlequin romance novels, but does Lifetime really believe their viewership is that dumb? Who writes a character as dumb as the wife? She sees all these weird things happening to them, hears the detective say that the weird happenings are set up with burner phones, and then she flips out like a psychotic, menstruating beast after finding underwear in the bed?

The husband should have had lines written for his character at that moment telling her that she needed to get the hell out, and that she would have nothing in the divorce settlement. Worst LMN movie ever written, and that's saying plenty. (ps. my husband says worst LMN ever (even tho we enjoy them), but this really does take the cake)

Take note of all the other under 5 reviews-I wish I had!

A handsome man, with a neatly trimmed beard, lurks around a house in the darkness. He seems to be attempting to break into the house, but he is interrupted by a phone call. Inside the house, we briefly see a dark figure creeping across the screen. This opening never really fits the rest of the story, although you could rationalize it with a line or two. "Inspired by a true story," the TV movie settles into place after the credits. The handsome man with the neatly trimmed beard is Tilky Jones (as Brian Lassiter). He moves into what looks like a dream house, with his attractive wife Clare Kramer (as Rebecca) and their adorable lemonade-selling pre-teen daughter Ashlyn Jade Lopez (as Maddy). Alas, a title like "The Wrong House" shouts trouble ahead...

This is competently guided by Sam Irvin and his crew. The direction is steady, holds interest, and we accept Mr. Irvin's putting women on counter-tops as a stylistic touch. The location and a supporting cast of instantly too-friendly neighbors give it a suitably phony atmosphere. Others in the cast include fitness trainer Allison McAtee (as Kathleen Strickland) and former "Melrose Place" mainstay Thomas Calabro (as Carter)...

What ruins the supposedly "true" story is the half-time decision by a major character to separate from her husband. Given the many incidents preceding the discovery of strange underwear in her bed, her decision is inexplicable. Since the character is presented as sane and intelligent, she should never be given a second chance. "The Wrong House" never addresses this character's sudden lack of cognition.

**** The Wrong House (12/26/2016) Sam Irvin ~ Clare Kramer, Tilky Jones, Allison McAtee, Thomas Calabro

I'm all for Lifetime movies (saw this on Lifetime Movie Network) but this one was absolutely horrible, from acting to too many holes in the movie.

As the summary says, Rebecca and Brian move into a new house in which strange things start happening from food they didn't order being delivered to their house, to exterrminators being called because of a rat problem they say they don't have. They soon learn whose behind all of these "pranks".

Issue one.If you say you didn't order food that's being delivered to your house, you shouldn't, nor would you pay for it, yet, Brian pays $57 for four pizzas and $42 for Chinese food.

Issue two: When they call the police about what's been taking place a detective shows up. When does a detective take a report for non-emergency, non violent issues? Detectives are usually assigned important cases. Not petty stuff like food being delivered and exterminators being called.

Issue three: When the detective goes to Brian and Rebecca's house and finds the door open, why doesn't he announce he's the police or he's a detective instead of shouting "Hello! Anyone home?"

And don't get me started on the unnecessary dramatic music through out the movie. Every scene in the movie had music.

This is one of those movies where the synopsis sounds great, but the execution was horrible.

I don't recommend this movie to anyone...not even if you're bored and this the only thing on TV.
