The Killer in My Backyard

Kind of violent LMN entry into the Thursday night lineup - in some parts it was darn right scary!

After watching this, I learned that:

1. You should not buy a house too soon after the previous owner has died (not because a ghost haunting the place).

2. A man who has a good build will ridiculously rip off his athletic tee when he is angered.

3. Kristos Andrews plays the killer/psycho very well.

4. A frying pan can be used as a deadly weapon.

5. Brittany Underwood can really play a TOUGH lady (remembering "Secrets in the Woods).

6/10.

....they'd rush round with the sirens blaring.

This was the point at which I couldn't take any more and stopped watching - I was already at the end of my tether for all the reasons listed by other reviewers. From what I'm gathering I made the correct decision.

Apparently I need another 300 odd characters before I can submit, so I may as well continue - the cardboard characters, the unrealistic scenario that the husband would just let the guesthouse out to a stranger on a whim because he seemed OK, without references or even speaking to his wife first, even though it's a jointly owned property - I dread to think how much worse the decision making from the "protagonists" became - it usually ends up with one or both of them going to an isolated place alone to confront the dangerous killer.

Enough characters now. Phew.

The acting is not so bad as a producing and the screen play ...dont waste ur time...the only good thing they did in the movie was the trailer and the rest is history.

The progression throughout the story line was unrealistic. The acting was horrible, especially from the lead male. His line delivery most of the time had no emotion and fell short. The lead female's sister probably was the best actress out of the entire cast. Some scenes were unnecessary and didnt make sense.

The plot has been done before so I knew I wasn't going to see anything new. But the acting was beyond awful. The guy who plays Josh was downright embarrassing. Try a new gig, dude, acting is not for you. The 2 cops were also laughably bad with the few lines they had, not to mention the scene and dialogue were stupid and unrealistic.

As usual, nice setting Lifetimes gives us. Points only for that.

Not worth the watch.
