A Lifetime film without the Lifetime label, this ode to 90s thrillers is the perfect antidote to modern life. Plastic people in beautiful homes with utterly ridiculous problems. It's amazing.

Campy, cheap and sorely lacking in consistency, The Stranger in My Home is best left on the doorstep rather than being invited into your viewing life.

So let me get this straight because you’re driving home the point of love matters more than blood which is fine… Abandoning another 15 year old girl is okay, because it doesn’t serve that point? The moral of this movie is it’s okay to abandon other children…

Okay, I loved this. I'm there for the cheerleading, I'm here for campy drama, I'm here for the deliciously bitchy PTA Mom, I'm there for all it.

The Stranger in My Home fails to set the right tone for the type of movie that it is. It seems to want to be comedic but fails to deliver any punchlines. Combine that with boring and unlikeable characters and this movie is as forgettable as a daytime soap opera episode in espanol.

I wanted to like this so badly because I love Sophia bush, Chris Carmack and thrillers but I struggled so hard to keep watching at every single moment.
