Oscar winner Marlee Matlin is one of my favorite actresses.She was definitely worthy and deserving of her Academy Award for Best Actress from the 1986 movie Children Of The Lesser God.Too bad that I rarely see of her movies these days.That is why I was fortunate to see her once again when I was tuning in at the Lifetime channel and see her in Foreclosed,also known as 4Closed.Jamie Kennedy,James Denton,Paul Sorvino-stars with Marlee in it.The story of the movie directed by Nick Lyon is about a family who is currently shopping for a new and cheap house and decided to buy on a foreclosed home.Unfortunately,the former owner would not take "no" for an answer and would not want to let go of his previous house.He keeps close to the new owners by life close by.When he could no longer bear not living in it,the former owner apparently happens to be a psychopath and decides to kill each member of the family.He does that through manipulation by setting each one of them with each other.And just like any typical movie from Lifetime,the family eventually finds out and brings the previous owner into justice as always.No question that we have a common storyline here from Lifetime.The only difference is this time the villain could not let go of his former house instead of having someone who could not let go of someone he/she is involved with in an illicit and adulterous affair.But in spite of it,it was nice at least to see the beauteous and talented Marlee Matlin in another fine performance.Added to that,the suspense and thrilling scenes were fair enough for entertainment.

Now, people let's be serious, this movie is horrible. How can it have a 6? Please, c'mon. I mean the basic idea of the film was perfectly good, but there are so many goofs, I really mean it. There are too many. There are worst movies but this is also one of the bad ones. Mean it, let's see... the woman couldn't call for help, her husband was arrested even thought there was no real evidences or proof, the police which was doing nothing said none could check the barman (he was doing nothing...), should I go on? C'mon people be serious!(Not really total spoiler but some...

usually all TV movies will be crap. But not this one. Watched it without any expectations. but a little prejudice was there. thought it would be a wastage of time. but it was not. you can suggest this movie to your Friends also. It is an average movie. But when considering TV movies, it is better. I have to agree on one thing. They could have done much better. it was such a thriller story. if they have tried, it could be a hit. There was much more scope for some creative scenes horrific moves. the crew didn't tried it. One thing I didn't like is the villain appearance. They should have taken care of his costume in a better way. The current appearance is not much weird. If he was much more weird..... Oh man.... It could be an awesome movie.

This movie is not going to win any awards, but I liked it. It had a lot of scenes that didn't make much sense, though, and the characters were not too bright.For the life of me, I can't figure out why Forest killed the first real estate agent. That only set the sale of "his" house back for a short time, so what was the point? Another agent was going to come back and do the same thing.It would also seem that the Turner family did not really check out the home very well, even when they had been in it for weeks. I don't think people would move into a home and not bother to explore it.It's a pretty scary thought that someone could actually be living in your house and you don't even know it.The daughter was dumber than a stone, I have to say. There really is no excuse for being that dumb. In one scene towards the end, she manages to escape into the backyard, and suddenly decides to start screaming her head off, knowing that the nutbag is right inside the house and can hear. The backyard is like the size of a football field, did she really think she could get away before he came after her?Some other annoying things were Lydia coming up on Forest in the middle of the night with a flashlight, while he was spying on the Turner family from the bushes. She really thought that was a good idea? She's the main one who thought he was crazy.Loved seeing Ernest Thomas AKA as Raj Thomas from What's happening, as Forest's lawyer. He was funny in his few scenes, but he was another dummy!
