I do not know if this qualifies as a 'Spoiler' or not, so I ticked the box anyway.This movie is part of a 12 Great Movie Collection on 3 DVDs in 1 box I bought from Walmart and it is NOT a movie that deserves to be in a 'Great' movie collection.I couldn't even finish watching it. IMO this is Not even 'B' movie material in spite of the acting being better than the writing.Walter Woods (Robe Lowe) has the most impossible worst luck EVER!Everything that happens to him is extremely implausible. One thing after another in a string of unbelievable stupidity.Yes people can find themselves in unfortunate circumstances but this guy and this film is just a constant train wreck of implausibility.I cannot believe anyone could be as stupid as this guy, would put up with what he does, would find themselves in the situations that unfold or would handle these situations he encounters the way he does. IMO this is one of the worst films I have ever tried to watch and Believe me I tried to give it a chance to recover but it just kept diving deeper and deeper into ludicrous.There is just no way possible that anyone on earth could find themselves in the situations that unfold in succession for Walter in such short order or even a lifetime for that matter.If it wasn't on the same disc with 2 other half-way decent movies and one really good movie I would toss it in the garbage.The other 3 are: The Leading Man, The Dark Side of the Sun and Personal Effects... which was the best of the 4.

After viewing this film into about the middle of the picture, I began to think it was a comedy and found it quite funny. Then, all of a sudden, things started to get crazy and Rob Lowe(Walter Woods),"Austin Powers in Goldmember",'02, wakes up with a young lady in bed with him who is very much dead. James Belushi ,(Harrison/Oliver)," Return to Me",2000, visits Walter Woods apartment and all hell breaks loose. It was very difficult for me to consider this a thriller after having laughed so much during the first half of the film! Everyone will see this picture in a different WAY!

I don't understand why is there so bad reviews. This movie thrilled me from begin to end. This is good written story, I usually suppose the end or the killer, but there was only in 50%. The civil acting of Rob Lowe is good, James Belushi played here an unusual role and funny is a part of Dean Stockwell as apartment manager. I think he enjoyed this part. Sometimes this movie is black comedy, but the end is quite brutal than previous parts of movie, I think it could be shorter (classic long final fight between bad/good boy).

I thought that the movie was well done and very suspenseful. Rob Lowe did a very good job in this movie, there was never a dull moment in this film. It is filled with twists and turns that kept me rivotted to my seat. I did not lose interest for one minute.
