A Killer Next Door

I actually watched the entire movie, not sure why. It was slow-moving, bad acting, and really not that interesting. The Stepfather, which is based on the same killer, is much better. The only thing that saved this movie was the music at the end while the credits rolled by.

I have a love of movies but the lead girl was a terrible actress. The boyfriend was worst.

Not sure if she even did an audition. I really wanted to like it because it's based somewhat on a true story.

The producers of this movie, drove by the unemployment office and picked up some out of work actors. This is bad, very bad.....

Terrible. Rear Window is my favorite thriller and What Lies Beneath is a close second. Those are solid movies.

This one, however, simply dropped the ball. They could have had so many more suspenseful moments! Also, if you lack appreciation for sacrilegious attributes in a murderer, definitely skip it!

I wanted to like this movie. I really did, but I couldn't sit through to the end.

Acting by so many was (in my opinion) sub-par. More importantly, this was supposed to be set in the US, yet the obvious signs it was not were seen by the European license plates on cars and obvious non-US electrical outlets. The Royal Mail carrier didn't lend any US authenticity either.

It's the small details that were overlooked that took away from any credibility this film might have had.

The outside shots of the List Westfield NJ home weren't even CLOSE to the home where the crimes had occurred. Granted, that home has since burned and subsequently was demolished, but surely the director could have found a home more closely resembling the List home, than the Newark NJ style row house he used instead.

I can only hope the producers get ANY return on their investment in this film.
