Someone Is Watching

Typical American made for TV movie. Nothing believable happens but come on, Stephanie Powers playing Mother to a young nipper!!!! Couldn't watch much after being expected to swallow that ridiculous casting. Anyone thinking this is a great film has never seen a great film.

This was basically a typical suspense film. The only difference was this one was made better by the performance given by Stefanie Powers. The fear in her eyes pulled you in and made you believe it. Ms. Powers has once again given a stellar performance!

We were looking for a good old ghost movie, read that this one would be a bit like "The Haunted" from 1991, but we were so disappointed. The film starts off promisingly with some supernatural things happening but after a while we noticed that it was some kind of killer story instead, we thought the actors did a lousy role, the police behaved well but the others just played over the top.

No, this was a really bad choice of Friday movie, we were disappointed. It feels as though the lead actress, Stefanie Powers, was too old for this role and only got it because at the time the film was shot, she was still quite a well-known actor. Martin Neufeld gave a poor performance, he even looks affected in his scenes, maybe he really was. We rate this a three, it is absolutely not a ghost movie by any means.

I just finished watching this movie. They lost me when she was reading a book (paper book) in the bathtub...Really! Would anyone, including a child, take a paper book to read in the tub. And to make this even more unbelievable, she falls asleep or passes out, whatever, and the book goes in the water. Could anyone not predict this happening. The writers really made a stupid stretch here. This otherwise was a pretty good movie. Sometimes I think I should be a movie writer. I certainly could come up with something more believable than this book in tub thing. I honestly see movies every day that suffer from poor writing and this was certainly one of them.

In SOMEONE IS WATCHING, Michelle Dupre (Stefanie Powers) and her young son move into a new home. They barely settle in before they're plagued by a creepy neighbor. Mystery and suspense build, and Michelle's son discovers an "imaginary friend' in his closet.

Margot Kidder costars as Michelle's kooky friend, Sally. Together, they make this made-for-TV offering quite enjoyable, right up to the final, bloody confrontation...
