A Killer Next Door

The producers of this movie, drove by the unemployment office and picked up some out of work actors. This is bad, very bad.....

If you know the John List story you will hate this. Not a good representation of the true story. Why skip 18 years?

Wow.. I honestly have no idea how I sat through this. It's one of the worst movies I've seen this year.

It's a shame, because it's based on a true story which I've heard about prior to watching this on the My Favourite Murder podcast. The true story is super creepy, and interesting, but this film was the complete opposite.

The acting, script, music.. ugh. It's all so bad! All very low budget, and don't get me wrong there can be some decent low budget films, but this is not one of them.

The best thing about this film is honestly the movie poster, because that actually looks decent.

I wanted to like this movie. I really did, but I couldn't sit through to the end.

Acting by so many was (in my opinion) sub-par. More importantly, this was supposed to be set in the US, yet the obvious signs it was not were seen by the European license plates on cars and obvious non-US electrical outlets. The Royal Mail carrier didn't lend any US authenticity either.

It's the small details that were overlooked that took away from any credibility this film might have had.

The outside shots of the List Westfield NJ home weren't even CLOSE to the home where the crimes had occurred. Granted, that home has since burned and subsequently was demolished, but surely the director could have found a home more closely resembling the List home, than the Newark NJ style row house he used instead.

I can only hope the producers get ANY return on their investment in this film.

I have a love of movies but the lead girl was a terrible actress. The boyfriend was worst.

Not sure if she even did an audition. I really wanted to like it because it's based somewhat on a true story.
