no mention if ann river siddons adapt the material for the house next door from her 1970s novel of the same title and or someone else do it . this lifetime like movie be direct by canadian director jeff woolnough . have read the book a long time ago and we decide to take a chance when the film show on a cable version of what be clearly a movie make for television . you know that when the critical moment precede the commercial and which of course and one can not find in this version we watch . the film star be lara flynn boyle who sport a new look that throw this viewer a curve because of the cosmetic transformation this actress have go through . from the new eyebrow to other part of her body and ms. boyle be hardly recognizable a col kennedy and the character at the center of the mystery . this be not one of the actress well moment in front of the camera . that go for the rest of the mainly canadian actor that deserve well . the film have a feeling of a cross between desperate houswives with the stepford wife and other good know feature and combine with a mild dose of creepiness . the best thing about the movie be the house which serve a the setting .
