The Glow

I stayed up late one night to watch this movie just because I like Portia De Rossi and found myself pretty interested in it, although quite predictable there are a few chilling twists in this drama and it's worth watching if it is on. It's a decent mystery drama and you should be pleasantly suprised by the sub-par acting by most of the cast.

It centres around a couple who move into a new apartment at an extremely cheap price with a bunch of old people, who are obsessed with fitness we find out there obesession is more sinister than we realise and they will do anything to keep their youth

even murder?

I didn't catch the beginning, but seeing the hot Dean Cain sucked me into it. Kinda creapy, very suspenseful, and an all around good tv movie as far as those go. The old people got on my nerves and I would have hurt them, if you see the moive you would understand.

I saw this TV movie on Lifetime the other day and was hooked from the beginning. Great casting, well acted, nicely paced, interesting characters, and very suspenseful. It kind of reminded me of 'Rosemary's Baby' meets 'The Firm'.....better watch out for the elders hooked on brightly colored health drinks....they can really pack a punch!! Above average TV Flick ***.

This is a good film, no a very good film. Well acted by Dean Cain & Portia De Rossi (Nell from Ally McBeal). Portia De Rossi surprised me as she was very good as Jackie. I did not like her in Ally McBeal but she proved she can hold her own. A very good performance.

Dean Cain is a very under-rated actor, who deserves more recognition for the good actor that he is. It never ceases to amaze me that he has not been cast as the lead in a major movie. He was absolutely excellent as Matt. Matt was such a trusting soul and was prepared to give the 'twelvers' (the old people) the benefit of the doubt, a touch of Clark Kent here.

The rest of the cast were excellent too. They were very convincing and we were certainly deceived into believing they were just nosy and not evil.

This film gets my vote as a top-rate t.v. movie and one that i would certainly watch again. A thoroughly enjoyable film and one i would recommend.

I watched this TVM The 'Glow' one late evening and wasn't disappointed!

NYC young couple move into a up-market apartment with a nominal rent. The premises is run by a group of retirees who are affable to say the least. These friendly and helpful neighbours also happen to be a health and fitness group.

A couple of young tenants previously disappeared from the same leased apartment. Sometime later another young couple upstairs who happen to be athletic types under plausible circumstances just seem to disappear too. Again a decidedly plausible explanation.

Portia De Rossi who is half of couple mentioned at start of review her character becomes tad curious about various seemingly odd happenings, could her suspicion about the low-rent just be a prelude of what's to come?

Dina Merrill who plays Phoebe one of the main characters of the group and Arnold her spouse played by Hal Linden just what are they up to if anything besides rest of the group?

This TVM is a drama/horror of type. It reminded me of not only Rosemary's baby but hint of Invasion of the body snatchers! But I won't spoil it for you.

Decidedly creepy, well paced, suspense too!

I rate one of the better TVMS of the type.
