When Daniel Summer (Maxwell Caulfield) moves into the guesthouse on the grounds of her home, Jessica Michaels (Linda Purl) is impressed with his impeccable manners and comes to believe that he's an ideal tenant. Unfortunately, she's wrong -- he's actually a murderous psychopath out to get her for her involvement in his father's death years earlier. Jessica's daughter, Laura (Stacy Hogue), senses something with David is amiss, but it may be too late to prevent further bloodshed.

Audience Member Nothing like a good hanging to spoil Christmas and cause major psychological trauma to a young American is a story well worth telling. One actress is really bad at her job but thankfully, she is killed off very quickly and we are grateful. The rest of the acting is TV afternoon style and is just enough to keep one entertained whilst reading the phone book. Nibbles: Roast Vegetables. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Absurd television made movie, and it look and feels like a TV movie. Overacted, totally predictable with a far fetched plot and overused TV score. Unimpressed on any level. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member An interesting watch, with a lot of murder, a touch of insanity and a plot for revenge. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was really good. The tenant guy was really creepy. It was a very interesting movie. Really fun to watch.
