Handyman from Hell

The acting was a mixed bag. I think all the female actors were pretty good. I loved to see my fave Jodie Sweetin (I didn't know she was doing more movies these days)! The main character Maggie and her friend were pretty good too, very cute and fun to watch, I don't know who they were though. The bad guy (Mr Crazy Eyes as I call him) was way too over-the-top. Very scary. On the other hand, the brother was such a stick in the mud though. I had a hard time figuring out why his girlfriend was interested in him! Did the actor even smile once in the whole movie, ever? Kind of a drag to watch him. The ex husband was the best male character probably.

The story overall needed some work. Sometimes it dragged. Could have been a faster pace in some spots (with maybe a few less scenes of the bad guy talking to himself).

Overall the movie was just fine.

Just saw this movie on LMN. The horrible acting from Steve really brought this movie to a crashing halt. Someone may want to let him know he should stick to standup. Acting is not in his deck right now. The bad acting made him stick out like a sore thumb.

Lastly, wish Jodie was in the movie longer than she was. She is a fantastic actress who shines in almost everything she does all the way back to when she was in full house.

The rest of the cast was ok. That made the movie believable but through no fault of their own, when Steve enters the scene, it just ruins it. Even XXX actors are more believable.

Overall, OK movie, typical Lifetime Movie Network drama. Bravo! (Except Steve)

My gosh, how could they put two actors that have Cyrano de Bergerac syndrome be put together as lead actors???? This whole miscasting is another typical flaw in Lifetime movies. I was "basically" watching this movie cross eyed. And why even have Jodie Sweetin in this movie playing another clueless woman in a Lifetime movie?? This movie brings nothing to TV except a cheap way to make a buck. The whole premis was meaningless. Just a waste of time for everyone who watched this hot mess. I'm glad I record these movies. It only takes me 45 min. To get through them. All I say to anyone who watches this is RECORD?

Seeing that this was a Lifetime independent film, I was hesitant to watch it, but it is the Halloween season and I wanted to watch a thriller movie. Jodie Sweetin (Full House & Just Swipe fame) started the first scene and I wish she had more time in the movie, but lover turned psycho killer, Nate (Joey Ariemma), ends her role early. Nate is clearly the star in this thriller as he turns on his charm to win over Maggie as her handyman, lover, then killer. Joey Ariemma's ability to switch between the pretty boy to psycho man is what made this movie so good. Other actors that made it worth the watch were funny man Vic Dibitetto, sexy Kristina Horan, and David Santiago. While Maggie (Lilianan Tandon) played co-star, her brother Michael (Steve Hofstetter) kind of dragged the movie down just a little bit with some dry acting and cheesy scenes. Nevertheless, the "thriller" of Nate kept the movie roller coaster ride on track! While not a Michael Myers (Halloween) horror movie, this served me well with a side of romance. Definitely worth a watch.

This movie sucks. It's got horrible acting, incredibly bad writing, and forgettable direction.

If you're looking for Jodie Sweetin, keep on moving, as she's only in this wretched film for 4 minutes.

The handyman killer isn't an interesting character. There's no rhyme or reason for his murders. He just kills when he's done with people, or when they've pissed him off. When you do find out why he's on his little murderous tantrum, you don't really care. He's a very low rent Jason copycat. He's an unimaginative killer, considering all of the tools he has at his disposal. Being a contractor, he could've had so many cool ways to off his victims, and he basically leaves so many awesome ideas literally on the drawing board.

Please don't waste your valuable time on this horrible "movie". It was made for less than 250k and it shows. I love a good low budget film, because they usually come up with unique plot/storylines. This is NOT one of them. Watch a good (smart) murder mystery on Acorn if you want a small challenge and a laugh. For gore, go old school. Leave this dreck in the wind. Trust me.
