SPOILER


Saw it being the one guy she met at the laundry mat all along. I knew it wasn't the creepy neighbor guy. We all knew that.

By the way at the end when he says "bless you"....why didn't she immediately phone the police?

I think she was in shock.

She didn't immediately call the police because she was probably immediately drugged or knocked out in some way by her stalker.

I hope you didn't fall for the fake end credit and stop watching, because you see her wake up in a basement where he kills her anyway. We're all wondering why he'd incapacitate her and go through all the effort of moving her to the basement, only to kill her with a plastic bag (which must have a force field to prevent anyone from poking a hole through to breathe).

When watching cheesy movies, you find yourself trying to guess the outcome based on all the cliches. For this one, I think we all knew the creepy neighbor at the beginning was just a red herring, and when he shows up later on. We all knew it was psycho boy at the laundromat. So that was easy enough. But the ending surprised me in all the wrong ways. Yeah, I didn't see it coming; she dies anyway and the killer stalks his next victim (?)

My spidey senses told me the creepy neighbor would have seen the stalker in her apartment, as he stood creepily out in the rain. He would have rushed in thinking to save her, but she would have misunderstood his intentions and she would have killed him. But in the process, crazy stalker boy would be seen giving our heroine just enough heads-up to either kill him or run away.

Now *that* would have been a perfectly acceptable, if not totally obvious and cliched, ending. Instead, what we got was a steaming pile where the killer gets away with it scot-free and we're just supposed to deal with it? No thanks!

Good post!

Yes, that trash bag must have been made out of some special material or something. I'm sorry, I fortunately have never been in that situation, but best believe I would have at least tried to break a hole in the bag so I could breathe!

The movie seemed to start out ok, but once I saw the creepo at the laundromat, I was instantly bored. Then when they panned over the different scenes building up to the real reveal of the stalker, it fell flat. 4/10 rating from me.
