    Full of Black Stereotypes

    A constant flood of Black stereotypes. Most of them are concentrated into the housewarming party scene.

    Absolutely horrible

    A poor, poor attempt at copying Lakeview Terrace. Acting was atrocious.

    Please do not waste 1+ hours of your life watching this movie.

    Worst movie ever!!

    This movie was horrible and not for the reasons others have cited. Racism is the least of their worries. Poorly written, terrible acting. Comical scenes (raining constantly in the movie know one gets wet, gun vs sword, ridiculous plots) and at the end soap opera. This was a money grab but it's so bad should go straight to video.

    Very 2020

    This movie is terrible and for multiple reasons. The topic is so 2020 and just another way to tell the world that white people are evil. Maybe we should be making movies that depend on racism for a topic, but on unifying us all. Now, if you are going to make this movie, try to at least cast it well and get better acting.

    • Trivia
      The title role was written with Candace Cameron Bure in mind. Bure turned down the part due to scheduling conflicts, though she was allegedly flattered. Taryn Manning was eventually cast, and earned a Razzie nomination for her performance.
    • Goofs
      When Malik and Imani are hanging up the African art piece; there is a screwdriver lying on the banister. However in the next cut which is at a different angle; the screwdriver is not there. The screwdriver appears and disappears through various cuts.
