Sola con un asesino

Soap actor William R. Moses really gets a chance to show his off acting chops in "Alone with a Stranger", playing a dual role as an evil twin scheming to take over the identity of his more successful brother. This is a bit more violent and nasty than your typical Lifetime movie: Moses is a calm, collected psychopath who kills without hesitation. The scene where he threatens to shove his stepson's hand into a garbage disposal is positively nerve-wracking.

Moses has to carry the whole thing on his sturdy shoulders, though: wife Barbara Niven barely makes an impression, while coconspirator Nia Peeples is wasted in an underwritten role. Barely anything happens in the sideplot with Peeples and the captive good twin, and it throws off the film's pacing quite a bit. Still, this has plenty to please connoisseurs of TV thrillers.

Really good thriller with William R. Moses really breaking out of his Perry Mason part of Ken Malansky.

In this very exciting film, Malansky plays 2 brothers. The evil one is quite a character who suddenly springs into the life of the good one, who is no saint himself. However, the evil brother has a diabolic scheme to inherit the good brother's business by selling it and then wiping out the other brother as well as the family. Anyone getting in the way of his plot is quickly murdered including the therapist for the good brother's wife.

The ending puts you on an absolute edge where the wife of the good brother has to determine who the bad brother is when both claim to be her husband. How she figures it out is truly amazing.

As is the case with everyone else, Bill R. Moses has aged but he still has those good looks which serve him well.

This movie was so bad it must be on by bottom 100 of all movies I have seen. You need only one brain cell to watch it. It's about a man with a realy good job living with her wife and a kid. And the wife think he is working to much. Then a Evil twin brother and his girlfriend suddenly turn up and kidnapping his brother. And he kills a lot of people and of course no cop in sight. Just that alone is so stupid. And the Evil twin brother want to sell the firm and move to New York and start pursuade the mother and the kid to move. But the kid don't want to move. And he starts threatening the son to move. Really bad acting and a weak storyline. There is not one surprise moment in the whole movie.

This film displays Billy Moses as the excellent actor he truly is! I was just so used to seeing him as the good boy Cole Gioberti on "Falcon Crest" that it surprised me at how well he could play a callous, cold blooded, and emotionless killer. He did a wonderful job in the duel role of twins. This film does not lose it's intensity and keeps you on the edge of your seat till the very end.

Please do not watch this! It is crazy dumb!! It's so bad that I couldn't even finish. I'll probably come back and change this review, but I'm telling you, it's really hard to get through. It's not entertaining in the slightest - it's a convoluted story with a plotline that doesn't make any sense. I know Lifetime movies are supposed to be dramatic, but this is just idiotic. It's too outlandish. A man's envious twin brother (William R. Moses) stops at nothing to have his life. He kidnaps him, takes him to some house, and chains him to a chair, using his girlfriend as his partner in crime. He goes to his home and impersonates him, fooling his wife because they're identical. I really don't understand what the point of this was??? Okay, he was jealous, but his actions are extreme, and would get him placed in a psychiatric institution. And for some reason, his wife didn't know he had a twin.

I really have nothing else to say. It's too ridiculous for elaboration. I didn't understand the use of the f-word and thought it was unnecessary. I don't know why they would curse in a made-for-TV movie. Just seems out of place. It's not like the film gives off an emotionally charged, suspenseful vibe, because the acting is laughable. The positive reviews are confusing. We all have different tastes, but this really was a mess, and I'm trying to be objective.
