movieman_kev A newlywed couple move into a new house and the feminine half (AJ Cook) of said couple believes that their is something askew with their new neighbors. Playing out like any given made-for Lifetime-esquire movie, the film has all the stereotypes and clichés of type of film. Battered woman? check, all the men all either evil or complacent in said evil? double check. And as such is a predictably boring mess. I didn't care about anything that happened in the film including the so-called 'hero' who came off as a daft silly little cooze. the crazy (the actress, not the stuck-up part she played in this film) Sean Young did nothing to add that much into the movie.My Grade: D-

Claudio Carvalho The young couple Lori Peterson (A.J. Cook) and her husband Tom Peterson (Matthew Harrison) moves from Chicago to a suburb, to live in a huge house. Their neighbors Helen Schmidt (Theresa Russell) and Carl Schmidt (James Russo) welcome them with a dinner party at their house and the two couples start a good relationship. When Tom travels to Los Angeles on business, Lori stays alone at home and realizes that Carl is a violent man and might have killed his wife. She decides to investigate what might have happened to Helen. 'The House Next Door' is a totally predictable festival of clichés. It seems that the studios have some sort of previously prepared combination of screenplays with this sort of flick, and releases them with a minor participation of some known actors and actresses, like Sean Young and Theresa Russell, a beautiful cover and posters to the video rentals to attract the attention of viewers. Later, they release it to an open or even cable TV channel, and nothing else. Just as an example, this type of movie is very common and typical in the Saturday 9:00 PM session of TV Globo (the greatest open channel in Brazil). 'The House Next Door' is a watchable and very forgettable flick. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): 'Vizinhos Lado a Lado Até a Morte' ('Neighbors Side by Side Until Death')

tomppatomppa Actors are not bad in this film as a matter of fact acting is very good and believable. Also the filming is quite good as much as I can say something about it. But when the actually story is sooooo foreseeable all the way to the end then you just can't enjoy the film. Sorry :[

cmehrlic the title really says it all but i can expand a bit. The acting was breathy and lacked any talent what so ever. The plot was obvious and stupid. I saw the end of the movie the second the movie started and i am ashamed that i saw the movie through. I suggest that NO ONE buy/rent this movie, because it would only encourage the producers of this movie to make another one. Bottom line: if there were a zero, I would have voted that one instead of the 1 I was forced to cast.
