I LOVE YOUR HOUSE

Warning: Spoilers
The main problem I have with this movie is the plot spoilers. The movie starts out with kids playing in a nice neighborhood with ominous music playing in the background while an unseen person is washing blood off a rather large kitchen knife. We then regress 3 months. The review compares this to Roommate and Hand that Rocks the Cradle as the DVD box shows us a female in shorts holding a bloody knife behind her back. So we already know the plot and the killer is Blair (Mayra Leal), that is if your IQ is high enough to make an "X" for your name.

Our happy young suburban couple Mitch and Jen (Craig Welzbacher and Sarah Prikryl), invite portly college buddy Danny (Matt Lusk) to live with them. Danny meets a girl, Blair, on the Internet who is too good to be true, especially one who jumps into bed with a dweeb like Danny on first meeting. Jen clearly doesn't like her and suspects something isn't right. Mitch can't take his eyes off her panty clad butt. Mitch is a successful surgeon who has a nice home living the American Dream and has all the stress to go with it. Jen works constantly as a chef and doesn't have the time to take care of her man and now has competition in her own home. Do we have enough stress yet? From a writers point of view I think Myra plays her hand too soon with her snarky remarks.

Not as good as other movies in this genre. I find it hard to believe that someone as fine looking as Myra has a hard time finding someone who owns a nice home with a pool. My cat has stopped sleeping in her box.

F-bomb, sex, nudity (Mayra Leal who Graduated from the University of Houston with a bachelor's degree in Advertising/Public Relations with a Minor in Mathematics in 2009 can only find work exposing herself in "B" movies.)
