Taraparain Tells a fascinating and unsettling true story, and does so well, without pretending to have all the answers.

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

lizawinthrop (spoiler warning) Admittedly I am a fan of lifetime movies, there's just something about the overall atmosphere that makes them oddly entertaining. But two in particular struck me (most likely in the spirit of silliness) to be Hitchcockian innovations in playing with suspense, perhaps that even the man himself had not thought up in his lifetime, this and A Job to Kill For (2006), A Job to Kill For was in the case of a plot twist that you never would have saw coming, and this one (Stranger in my House) is in the case of a woman apparently being victmized in the beginning... it later turning out that the apparent victimizer was the (perfectly level-headed and ethical) victim and he had a right to do what he did, then comes the first breakthrough that will make guys with a fetish for hot-headed chicks light up like they're in the presence of a deity, just when it seemed the apparently good-natured ethical perfectly level-headed young female was, you know just that, she's sweetly apologizing for leaving the living room wndow open then when the house owner makes a further reminder.... KABOOM, out she explodes and darts out of the chair.

guilfisher-1 Total Stranger or Stranger In My House was so typical LMN movie you could almost tell the story without even seeing the film. Top this bad story with bad actors and you got it. Where does LMN get these terrible actors from? Especially the women? Lindsey Crouse as the lady of the house was just terrible. Looking painfully dumb and stupid most of the time. Anyone could fool her. And in the likes of another bimbo, played by Zoe McLellan, she gets fooled into letting the idiot rent a space in her home. Of course the bimbo is nuts. With as much warmth as an iceberg, this actress not only looks stupid but she acts so bad you don't really care. Bad casting on these two ladies. Paige Moss as the daughter at least had some believability. And veteran actor Jay Thomas was so wasted in this it was embarrassing. Then there's the jerk nerd lab assistant played by a huckleberry finn type Jay Paulson. He just went around with this dumb look on his face when he appeared.These unforgettable performances and lousy script made this one of the worst I've seen on LMN. And I've seen a lot of losers.

caa821 Got into this flick, just as it was beginning, on an afternoon where I was home with a touch of flu - otherwise I'd have missed it. That probably would have been best.I noticed the presence of Lindsay Crouse and Jay Thomas - both very good performers - and thought this might be worth a look. It proved to be to some extent, but only because it is one of those stories so awful it fascinates.Zoe McLellan has little to recommend her talents, except for her Jayne Mansfield- or Loni Anderson-like bosom. Unfortunately, her acting prowess - at least here - makes Mansfield and Anderson seem to be Garbo or Davis by comparison.The young nut case's white rat, the owner's cat, the young nut case having the owner evicted and restrained in her own home, and a bunch of doophus's (including the young nut case) running around a bio hazard facility, and the absurd conclusion. I kept waiting for at least some scene or plot element to contain at least a modicum of realism, believability or being capable of evoking some empathy/sympathy -- but this proved to be in vain.

Anheetto There was a reasonably good looking girl starring the film(Zoe Mclellan) but even her looks couldn't stop me from voting it the lowest possible - one.The plot is bad and irrational.What more can I say. The movie sucks.
