Horror? Lol

mediocre psychological thriller...not scary, kind of weird, very boring...not a film I would want to watch again

The terrible movies I endure for Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

Jeffrey Dean Morgan shoves his hand into his pants? 10/10 The movie? 4/10

Well that sucked for sure

It was entertaining and is well done, but is predictable and not very original.

Have watched it the third time last night. I like it, yes predictable but still good. And JDM as a creepy landlord? Heck yes.

It sucked. It was boring. Waste of time.

'gt;'#34;You get to be awake this time. This time, you get to remember.'#34; This felt like a TV movie, which is surprising. It has a few good well known actors but the pacing felt so off. I will say though, Jeffrey Dean Morgan makes a creepy stalker.

Yet another one to start but drop

The movie isn'#39;t terrible, it just isn'#39;t memorable either. The villain has no real reason to do what he'#39;s doing and then the movie just ends completely out of nowhere. The performances were fine, the movie just felt like one you'#39;ve seen before and one that was done better. Side note, is anyone in real life actually named Juliet? I swear I'#39;ve never met/helped/talked to/seen one in a database anywhere but they'#39;re everywhere in movies and tv shows I swear.

Decent movie, and Hillary...oh yes.

Wow, what a waste of time this was. Total and utter crap!

Horror - No Thriller - Yes Great story - No Pretty decent - Yes Look / Skip - Look for Hilary Swank/ Skip for the rest of it End of story :)

I tought I had a deja vu watching this film, some movie from the ninetees. Quite a heavy thriller but not yet a horror. I missed a semi-feel-good ending, the bad guy died end of story.

Generic Cat and Mouse Thriller. When young doctor Juliet Dermer (Hilary Swank) moves into a spacious New York apartment, she can’t believe her luck. More so as she is attracted to her landlord, Max (Jeffrey Dean Morgan). However, something isn’t quite right with the apartment and Juliet soon comes to regret having ever moved in. There has been a number of similar thrillers over the years, the type where a humble home is turned into a nightmare by the presence of some psychopath. The Resident, in spite of some lovely technical touches, sits comfortably on auto-pilot and hopes that is enough to seal the thriller deal. Sadly it isn’t! Director Antii Jokinen and his co-writers Robert Orr and Erin Cressida Wilson have forgot to add twists and shocks to their picture. Things are further compounded by the fact that Morgan’s villain (it’s signposted a mile away) is about as scary as a puppy letting out its first bark. Swank gives it a good go as the woman in peril, while Christopher Lee is a reassuring presence even if he is utterly set up as a token character. The sexual violation angle feels like a lame attempt to put some horror into a standard thriller set up, while the script is wooden and kills what chance of suspense there briefly was. Some impressive cinematography and camera techniques keep it interesting to the eyes at least, but this is a waste of acting talent and a waste of time for those looking for something to chill the blood. In all honesty you would be better off renting The Tenant or Single White Female instead. 4/10
