Someone Is Watching

Typical American made for TV movie. Nothing believable happens but come on, Stephanie Powers playing Mother to a young nipper!!!! Couldn't watch much after being expected to swallow that ridiculous casting. Anyone thinking this is a great film has never seen a great film.

This is a spooky TV movie about a woman and her young son who has just moved into a new house. The son develops a relationship with an "imaginary" friend who lives in his closet, and people around them start to die mysteriously. This gives the audience a good dose of mystery and horror, leaving you wondering who did it and if the "imaginary" friend has any connection to it. Even the title of the movie gives you a creepy feeling.

It's a somewhat exciting movie from start to finish, with descent acting, though, some of the dialog and language were forced. Barry Flatman as the lead's boyfriend was annoying. But I thought Margot Kidder gave a convincing performance as the pesky but helpful neighbor who plays an important role in solving the mystery.

It's overall entertaining for a TV movie.

Grade B.

This was basically a typical suspense film. The only difference was this one was made better by the performance given by Stefanie Powers. The fear in her eyes pulled you in and made you believe it. Ms. Powers has once again given a stellar performance!

i thought that Stephanie Powers, and Margot Kidder did both an excellent job in this movie,, i really thought that it was an absolute steal at the 1 dollar price, i would have bought it for 10 , it's that good i think. you look at the premise.. you have you're suspects the boyfriend,, the landlords son. hmm maybe the guy from last time,, you just don't know, you have classic kid playing in closet, so you know that there 's something there ball comes back to kid. there was a kind of intensity to this film that you just don't see anymore from Hollywood. i was absolutely glued to my seat the whole movie by this one. then you have the cop trying to help her with the situation,this movie is way better than some of the schlock that Hollywood has come out with recently. so i give this one a big thumbs up. it's not perfect, but pretty close.

We were looking for a good old ghost movie, read that this one would be a bit like "The Haunted" from 1991, but we were so disappointed. The film starts off promisingly with some supernatural things happening but after a while we noticed that it was some kind of killer story instead, we thought the actors did a lousy role, the police behaved well but the others just played over the top.

No, this was a really bad choice of Friday movie, we were disappointed. It feels as though the lead actress, Stefanie Powers, was too old for this role and only got it because at the time the film was shot, she was still quite a well-known actor. Martin Neufeld gave a poor performance, he even looks affected in his scenes, maybe he really was. We rate this a three, it is absolutely not a ghost movie by any means.
