I gave this 5 stars out of 10.
I thought it was an interesting thriller, parts of it were a bit different - although it does have the old cliché of the bad twin and the good twin.
However, there are some unusual characters in this film that revolves around a group of people living in a rent controlled apartment building.
We have the nervous old lady, played by Michael Learned (of The Waltons), who is constantly knocking on the other tenants' doors trying, to little avail, to get them to turn down their music and that sort of thing.
We have the three young male roommates, who are wasting their lives away living in squalor, doing drugs, and doing any girl they can get their hands on.
We have Hector, a trans-gendered person, and his friend in another apartment - Sara - who is living with her mentally disturbed twin sister, Tess.
The landlord of this apartment building gets offed early in the film and the building is then purchased by a middle-aged black man and his young, attractive daughter, Amanda, who would prefer this not remain a rent controlled building.
Shortly after the new landlords arrive, tenants start turning up dead.
Just who is offing the tenants? That's the question in this film. Are Amanda and her father guilty? And just what is going on with the mysterious Dr. Shep (played by Judd Nelson,) who suddenly moves into the building, and seems a little more interested than he should be in Tess and Sara.
While there are some questionable actions on the part of some of the characters - such as one being chased by a killer and instead of running out the door and seeking help, runs past the front door and down into the creepy basement - but over all - this isn't a bad movie to spend your time watching.
I found it entertaining and well paced. It held my interest throughout.
