I watched these instead of Netflix, they don’t make them like this anymore
I agree.
I know what u mean
Tubi and CZcams carries good throwback lifetime movies classics ♥️
Me too😀
The only problem is that I've already seen most of them. However, they're good enough to watch a second and third time. 😊
Poor lady, that was awful. I would never ever rent my rooms out to strangers thank God she made it.
My friend started an Air BnB. She doesn't need the money. Right now there's a suspicious person on her property. I warned her. Now I'm getting the silent treatment. She ought to watch these movies
@@twilfits oh no 😟
Oooooooooooooooh
@@twilfitsmaybe you shouldn't have warned her sometime they don't listen and alot of times it don't be strangers it be people that you're close to like FAMILY members and they are the worse kind believe you me
to live with and to help
A similar thing happened to me when I tried to help out a 'friend'. It's very upsetting when you realise you've got a violent, unstable person living in your home.
How did it end
Yeah… don’t leave us hanging 😂 WHAT HAPPENED? 😂
@maccoll3644 right I know what you mean some are supposedly family members of yours meaning they're just as weird as a regular stranger are worse and they got the nerve to call you family and they really don't leave that are they keep coming back
Boy
that's tiring
Sadly, there ARE people like this 😒
Very true but would rather stay alone and in a house I can afford.
I was so blessed to have two wonderful roommates in 2017 & 2018. The extra money helped me pay off my car. I would never rent my room again in this day.
Same!! I had many roommates and tenants. The last one almost killed me. I'm 400 miles away living a great life. I don't trust anyone!!
@@twilfits I know that’s right! We got away from that safely!☀️
@@twilfitsThey almost tried to kill you ? Are you being extra or did they actually try to really kill you? Just asking an innocent question 😂
@@twilfitsI know right when it's all over I want either I'm in a situation right now boy will i be glad when it's over with
and they don't come back again
I had a friend and roommate who left me with a phone bill and a mess . Even your friends will do you wrong.
Those R the worse kind
Had a friend way back in the early 70. He was going through a bad patch. His wife was leaving him and he had no job. I gave him a job for a few weeks till he got back on his feet. During the period he worked for me, say 2 weeks, he borrowed the key of the site hut to make what he called. Local calls. His young gf had moved to Canada and was pregnant by him. He used our site phone to make the calls. The firm got the fraud squad involved and they asked me had I loaned the key to snyone. I immediately trued to protect my friend but when he started to deny everything to me, I let the fraud squad go ahead and explain to him why they knew that he was the one who was making calls to Canada costing 400+ a time..
As he grew older. his gfs grew younger..In the end, it was pathetic to watch.
The moment that the roommate screamed at her and slammed the door she would have been out. Nobody comes to my house and does that. That is why some people prefer to live alone.
@@ninthhorizonyes I agree
That was not a true friend then.
It is a tradition amongst the property owners in my family to personally bodily evict tenants rather than wait for the court process. This movie helped me to understand why! 💪
We did the same.
Moral of the story: NEVER EVER rent room(s) in your home or on your property 😖
This is insane. The poor landlady!
I have had some really bad roommate situations before but, luckily, none this bad. You never really know someone until you live with them no matter how long you’ve known them before that.
Who let’s a stranger move in 😂😂😂😂people are crazy
People do let strangers move in. Often someone is a stranger until you know the person.
THat cat scene at the pool was very shattering
I know, I had to look away! The cat looked so real. My evil neighbor poisoned my 6 pound pomerainian. He is now in prison for an unrelated crime. The World is not so "Leave it to Beaver" anymore.
I believe the lady will Never have a renter in her home again!
Be careful! Do not trust anyone!! Beware with that things you wish! Don't be a fool! Life is reality! Not a fairy tale!
Your so right! No such thing as happily ever after or a fairly tale life❤
You re completely right
At the end of the day, we're all victims of this cruel life. But it's up to us how we deal with it!
Exactly told that to my gf who has a suspicious person on her property. She's not speaking to me now
@@twilfits Are you the suspicious person? Lol
I actually lived in a duplex garden apartment and I was on the 1st floor. It was a horrendous experience. My landlord's cousin who owned the above unit rented it out to a mentally unstable guy. This guy was so unstable that at the end I had to have him arrested attempting to trespass my apartment whie my mother was there. It was really scary. Now as a landlord I know what questions yo ask but mos importantly, I never conduct interviews with prospect tenants over the phone. It aways must be conducted in person.
She did conduct the interview in person.
@@FreedomSpirit7 and to no avail that mean it didn't work out Soo might as well have not rented. it at all
she shouldn't have rented it at all
To that creep
The way my blood boiled. How can people be so cruel and take advantage of someone's kindness.
You don’t get friendly with Tenants! So many rules broken.
Right cause they don't follow the rules some do and some don't
Agreed, no, even you're tenants. I been stalk and Harass by landlord and tenants work together
As soon as I heard the cat meow, I knew. The nuts always hurt the most innocent first. 😿
the cat was telling the landlady get out of the house right meow it's not safe
the cat was telling the landlady get out of the house right meow , it's not safe
This is just too awful for words and, yet again, it's always the awful people who win out over us decent law-abiding citizens. How can this ever change for the better??
It’s insane. This movie started to piss me off. The audacity and nerve of that psycho.
I had to stop watching it. She was making me so mad.
@@melissaadams4577 I swear! I almost did a couple times. Then I did, then I had to come back to see the ending. Boy, I was unnerved.
@@emilinebelle7811 lol I did the same thing.
I had to fast forward it because I didn’t want to see a lot more of what the pyscho was going to do and wanted to see the end.
Be careful who and what you invite into your life 😱!
Ain't that the truth
Yep
@pandorasboxer and in your home
she was being careful. There is limits to what we can take precautions to and protect against.
And into your home
I was getting so angry watching this lol.. I had to remind myself it’s just a movie. But she took way too long to start fighting for herself. Good movie tho.
If this woman started fighting for herself sooner, what any sane person would do, there wouldn't be a movie.
@@krielkipTrue!🤣🤣😂
Same here...
A woman who has a pet rat 🐀 is already disturbing
I agree! A little like keeping snakes, just creepy.
I thought it was a little creepy at the time this film debuted.....but I've since owned white mice. 😁 In all seriousness, both mice & rats are very sociable pets.
Mental illness is real!! I was so mad when Patti didn't fight back hard enough at first but it's shocking to deal with someone like that and at the end when she asked her to hold her I cried because I have a nephew with mental illness and they make you both angry and feel bad for them 😢😢
Very true
Very true. I remember when this film debuted & it disturbed me in a strange way. Its shocked me the way the law was on the side of the disturbed person & NOT the owner! I hated that she killed the woman's cat....but also hated that she retaliated by killing Romeo the mouse. I know that people can escape your radar, but this young woman acted REALLY bizarrely from almost the beginning, even before she agreed to let her move in. There has to be easier & safer ways to pay the mortgage than rent to strangers.
But the ending made me cry....& still does. Because the disturbed young woman was indeed mentally-ill & was dying....kudos to the older woman for having the compassion that the young woman did not.
I'm getting my PHd in Lifetime movies 🎥
Lol 😂🤣 So am I!
Me too
This is so funny, but you most probably could, for real. Which is not funny.
Please reserve a spot for me 😂
“Can’t catch a break.”
Medication for mental patients is a problem though. They need it but the side effects make them not wanting to take it
I'm not moving in anywhere where I can't use the central heating. I love these older lifetime movies with no cell phones everywhere etc. It was weird to see someone actually get in a cab like the old days.
well she didn't let her used the central air and heat cause the rude tenant was something else she tried to take over that lady's house
😅
You can still find taxis especially in larger cities. I sometimes don't use the central air to cut down on costs.
Yeah now you get a recording and have to register and have passwords just to get a ride. I'll take the 90s .
I really like this movie it shows you the inside of human that cannot be seen through crookedsmiles
These are good actors! I really like the plot about an evil tenant!
This is why I never let people stay at my house. Once they move in, it’s really hard to get them to move out.
I remember laying in bed on Lifetime Sunday's watching this movie w/ my mom
It doesn't get any better than that
@@YeaItsMe21Wholeheartedly agree.I miss my Mum .😢
"LYING" in bed; not "LAYING,"
Whn u open your door to a narcissist.... Your world will turn upside down... From day 1
She isn't a narssist she is phscotic don't use names of illness y know nothing about
Harry is finding this out……lol.
I was worried she wasn’t going to figure out the apples at the end whew
That's why now I'm presently at our country home since I manned it because Mom has passed away, even many had suggested renting out my own set up and built house in the city, I don't want other people using my house. I want peace of mind.
I NEVER LIVE WITH ANYBODY AGAIN..
I LOVE LIVING ALONE.
BEEN THERE DONE THAT..CRAZY LAW's
Really! So many crazies out there..
Very scary , I wouldn't let anyone to my home. Don't trust.
All these people saying "oh just evict her, she's crazy" America has shit laws that protect the renter even squatters rights. You can be kicked out of yr own house with a restraining order.
Renters have very few rights if they rent legally.
@@cathybassett6432. Normal renters, this is a psycho. And, even with leases reviewed by legal counsel and signatures, it is VERY difficult to to evict people.
I must agree. I warned my own neighbors about this: Its insane how many rights people can have if you let them stay with you......& I am not even talking about LEGAL renters! You can experience a problem if you allow the person to get their mail where you live! It actually establishes residency!
So if you allow someone to stay with you, MAKE SURE THEY GET A P.O. BOX!
Otherwise it could be disastrous.
@@cathybassett6432 It depends on the state & the lease. In my state, it can take a minimum of 90 days to 6 months to evict someone! Its ridiculous. Even if you are not a legal renter, the squatter's rights here are ludicrous. Allowing the person or persons to get their mail delivered in your home ESTABLISHES RESIDENCY! Just say no!
An old English law re squattets rights. It make no sense to me at all.
One of the best movie ever..., great lesson and the truth comes out...
Best movie ever? It was average at best 7/10
@@scambodia147It was good. Compared to what's on today. I give it a ten.
7/10 is, actually, a better score than just average.
I'd give it less than a 7. Maybe a 3. It wasn't brilliant but watchable.
@@lisaslawrence7593 I was being generous,you on the other hand are just being pedantic.
Laura will have to be kept in the lock castle with a mask, straitjacket, and a chain for eternity.
And in the attic just like in the 1800’s
I had bad experience I can understand this woman well . I had to kick a woman out with 20 people as evidence what she did to me I was helping her out I only said for little while I tell you never trust to let anyone in your home . In reality things like this actually happen. I had good supportive friends better live alone then with a nightmare .
Not using central-heating?? That is one way to destroy the pipes in your house! Even if you're trying to save money & I know I am.....you never shut off central-heating if your home is larger than an efficiency. Buy a draft-blocker for under your front door, put heavy curtains over windows (especially if you have older ones & cannot afford to change them yet). Half-close the vents in rooms that you seldom go into, it helps divert the heat where you need it most. But whatever you do, don't turn your thermostat below 60-62F. You'll freeze your pipes & won't save ANY money doing that.
I am extremely against harming innocent creatures in labs or any way shape or form! That scene grieved me along with all the other disturbing parts of this movie
Ugh narcissistic psychopath reminds me of a past mentor who put me through horrid abuse and gaslighting
That lady needed to be disallowed to live unsupervised and unmedicated. People like that should not be permitted to live on their own in society! Personal experience with an ex who lived on his own and ultimately, allegedly molested my daughters friend and ended up in jail at which time I divorced him.
Bubble bath, candles, glass of wine:
bath time in the movies!
I never understood the whole wine/books/candles/ even food in the bathtub. Why would you snack whilst bathing??? I tried reading a book once like they do in these films & all I did was get bubbles splashed on my book. No fun!
@@taracollins5597 It can't last long as well - water and bubbles cool off quickly -
so you get a spoiled book, cold and a little drunk... AND not even really clean!
@@AnnabelleJARankin You're right about the bubbles vanishing & definitely water-cooling! Not to mention most tubs leave half-the-body out of the water lol...what idiot designed standard tubs?!!! Or was everyone 4' 2" feet tall back then?? But actually I learned one does get basically clean, because most bubble-baths are made with soap! :)
@@taracollins5597 Hugs 🤗 from where I live in Malta!
I actually adore marinating in the bath with my book, music, candles, wine, and essential oils. It’s so pleasant. When the water starts to cool, I just start adding more hot. Simple easy solution. Love my bathroom. Other than my kitchen, it’s my favorite place in my home. ❤
I love these movies where the roommate turns out to be a psycho!
It was a good movie. She had such a mean and selfish family who were too busy caring about their own needs. If people show goodness on a daily basis there would be less crime and less drug taking. It is in everyone’s best interests it would reduce health costs., insurance costs etc. at the same time be aware of your safety and do good and try to aim to be happy and spread happiness whenever u can.
Two movies i know this girl came in she’s the crazy girl 🤣🤣… The Wrong Girl, in 1999 and this movie 🤣
Single White Female
When I was a child in they 60's and 70's my grandmother always rented her rooms out to students. She had two at a time. They never caused her any problems or harm. She was lucky.
Another great movie is House of Games. She plays a psychiatrist who comes to the aid of a compulsive gambler. It's a mystery thriller.
I love that movie❤
@Films 4 You
8 out of 10 movies I absolutely love!
Great selection.
Thank you!
from Australia
I've never heard of any of these actors but they were all so professional. Great editing, camera and sound. Was this made for Cable or network TV? Well done, good script and acting.
2nd time i watching this EXCELLENT 🎥 its a MUST WATCH ❤
Yes, Thank God she made it!🙏🏽
Oh god. Just past halfway through and was not prepared for that. Excellent movie, excellent acting, they don't make them like they used to.
How can we live in a society where someone rents someones home and get away with crap n psychos everywhere
This is an excellent movie I enjoyed it!!!
Not a good idea too move a stranger into your home.its like inviting door number 3 into your home ,u dont know them and dont know what your getting.
There are some people who claim to love animals but do x have a ounce of care for people. Strange...
The cat scene 😭😭😭😭
What great acting. Thanks for the upload.
What happend with the cat? I cant watch it ifs bad 😢🐈
Tenant from hell drowned him.😡@@maritkristianehauganwick7721

😢😢😢😢 CANT CONTINUE
TO WATCH THE ENDING OF THIS
MOVIE 🌟 POOR LADY 🌟 IN REAL
LIFE 🌟 NEVER LET A STRANGER
INTO YOUR PERSONAL SPACE 🌟
MALE OR FEMALE 🌟 THERES NO
HAPPY ENDING 🌟 TRUST ME....
PEOPLE GO MISSING....HELLO
YOU REALLY DONT KNOW NOT
THING ABOUT THIS PERSON...
AND YOU LIVE ALONE/ SCARY.
Exactly....
Very scary situation 😨
Friends colleagues roommates NO NO even if you are hard up for money. Better go hungry then invite anyone into your house
Great one, great story line. Thank you.
It is 2023 we won't even put a "WELCOME" anything outside no telling what would happen or who would take it serious , we prefer "BEWARE OF OWNERS" the dogs are for cuddles !!!!
Now you know what gaslighting looks like
It's a wonderful movie thanks for sharing💙💙💙
People renting a room and expecting the tenant to keep away of certain areas without locks. Good luck! Very few people respect such rules.
Great movie, With good Actors played there parts well
🍿
Yes never trust anyone!!!
Into your house until you have done a back ground check on them before Allowing any Room mate into your home
This actress used to play psycho roles in every mo😮vie she made , I wonder if she’s really like this
lmaoo i wouldnt be surprised
Probably.
LOL In real life, she's a weirdo who goes around claiming to be psychic, and was twice accused of kidnapping her children away from her ex. So you might be on to something!
I'm waiting for someone to be on the Mother/Landlady's side. Give the woman a break.
MISTAKENLY ALLOWED MY DAUGHTER AND HER BOYFRIEND TO USE TENANT APPARTMENT INSTEAD OF HER BEDROOM...AFTER 4 YEARS THEY WERE ASKED TO START PAYING RENT AT A REDUCED DUE T0 FINANCIAL PROBLEM....ASKED THEM TO FIND SOMEONE TO SHARE THE D2 DOUBLE ROOMS...THEY MISSED FIRST MONTHLY PAYMENT THEN PAID THE FOLLOWING MONTH...EXPECTED RENT THE THIRD MONTH BUT THEY LEFT...SAID RENT WAS TOO EXPENSIVE...
I thought about renting a room in my house when I first got divorced. But it was only a passing thought. I'm a very private person and I couldn't have taken someone living in my home. I'm glad I took the time to get to know myself I was married for a very long time and I couldn't have taken another person living with me. I'm still by myself and I absolutely love it. Take the time to get to know yourself you can do it. you don't need anyone else ❤
I love this. ❤😊😊😊
Some of these Judges " Don't have natural intellegence .....
Good movie, thank you
Is there sick people like this in this world!? This movie make me feel sick 😮
So this lara is gone and leaves the light on in her room, and the landlady even doesn't turn it off when she enters the room in her absence?? VERY unlikely that a landlady doesn't read/understand a lease! Too many unlikely details. I'm out....
Excellent
I Really Love Lindsey Crouse, As An Actress, She, Is Fantastic, In This Movie,, And A Great Plot. It Is, A Sad, Movie, Like That, HowEver, What, A Story.
Why not lock your bedroom especially now there is a stranger tenant? Odd.
Well I feel sorry for poor, little Caesar!
When you are a dumb owner, this is what can happen
Great movie!!!
Unbeliverbel how she thinks the house is hers
Either delusional or entitled. I had an acquaintance who really took casa mi casa literally. Opening drawers and helping herself to anything I had, including medication and food. No reason at all, other than if she wants what she sees, it's hers.
@@damongirl66. 😮 cheek!
@@damongirl66did she ever stop? How? Did someone talk to her about it? I have so many questions 😂😂😂
When she yelled at here while at dinner table that was a sign mod def she was not any good or right then tired to come out and tell a sob lie of a story
Good scenario The landlady and the tenant are good actresses I like this movie. Thanks.
Never trust anyone
This women is old enough to not be that stupid to what that girl is doing
I really really really hate it when they make the victims so ridiculously weak. The nutter murdered her cat and she did nothing???
I love this movie I wish it was longer!!!
Good movie 🍿🍿🎥🍿🎥🍿
Sunday night vibe loud screen 😅😊😅😊 happy holidays family and just went live for the first time.happy holidays . love you guys 🎉😂❤😂🎉😊😊
I saw some thing like this on the news.
Thank you so so much for sharing this movie. We need more movies like this one. I enjoyed it.
So glad you enjoyed it! We have other movies I think you would enjoy too.
Why was she killing the cat 🐈 she was evil
AMAZING ENDING
YOU CANT TRUST ANYBODY TO MANY NUT JOBS OUT THERE
So glad I came across this movie on yr channel ....I had this on DVD but its gone walk abouts on me... It's a very good movie .... And It's what realy happens in real life .... especially now.... don't ever trust ... this happens all the time... .. I see yr channel has some very good movies... Thanku for uploading 🙂
You have to prove to a judge or the police ur life is in danger to get a TRO. Judge would never just grant one on someone’s say so
That is incorrect. I practised law and you have no idea how many judges grant orders that protect the real criminals. I could tell you stories that would make your head spin. I have washed my hands from the justice system. Most often, it has nothing to do with justice. There is so much corruption it’s unbelievable.
Yes, some judges do !!!😮
No, even cop won't do anything. It the landlord, and if the landlord doesn't care, there nothing they can do until u bring the landlord in court trust me i been thereb
THe Psychos friend and the womans daughter are very frustrating idiots in this movie
My dumbass would have just cut the good looking part of the apples off and eat them. 😂😂
Poor kitty 😢
