I Hate the Man in My Basement

I almost didnt watch this because the title alone screams "dont do it," so please excuse my surprise when i say this is a well-done movie. good performances, interesting story, some well-placed humor to not make the lead role a total creeper. the character in the basement couldve used a bit more development. the book scenes couldve gone into more detail, but its cut well enough leave a reasonable impression. worthwhile watch, or victor over low expectations? ignore the title, watch it and find out

This movie hits every emotion possible. Chris Marquette plays Claude who's wife was recently murdered. The emotion is captivating and you really honestly feel his pain. Manny Montana plays Logan and I honestly started feeling sorry for him as the story unfolds. All the cast were excellent. The writing is very creative and takes you through a wide range of emotion. Very entertaining, flows well, and will capture your emotions. Definitely worth watching and refreshingly different.

When Claude loses his wife, he loses himself. Anger, grief, loneliness and guilt drive him to kidnapping the man who killed her, and holding him in his basement. He pushes away his friends and coworkers, who only want to help him.

Will Claude kill the man in the basement? Or will he find himself again? As the film slowly reveals both the secrets of Claude and the man in the basement, it becomes hard to tell the villain from the hero.

The movie isn't a horror movie or even a thriller. It's a delicate examination of the way getting to know someone else can change the human heart. And, in its own twisted way, it's a great antidote to our present political craziness.

The acting is superb, the script interesting and it makes me wish there were more Indy movies like it.

This was a good film. Never over the top, it slowly showed the emotions of all the characters, and made for a good watch.7/10.

I love a film that leaves you with questions at the end and this is full of questions and I'm ok with that. I really disliked the main character and his friends and felt sorry for the guy in the basement but that's ok too. Great performances, great story and nicely edited and directed.
