The Rating System

All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

~Steaming Pile: The movie is absolute garbage, a complete bore, and not worth the time or effort.

The Killer Next Door (2002)

AKA: Ronnie

Starring: Adam Scott, Mark Pelegrino, Fini Goodman, Brian Austin Green, Aimee Graham
Director: Matt Casado, Clayton Gardner

Premise:
A man who works at a mental facility finds one of the patients wandering the streets after she accidentally left the grounds. He takes her back to his house with an attempt to seduce her. His plans go awry however after his mother needs to be taken to the hospital and his older brother is released early from prison.

My Take:
The movie's poster art is rather misleading. This film is more of every day horror of what people can do each other and the how situations easily snowball out of control.

Rating: In the middle

Watched: Netflix DVD
