The Lois Duncan book was actually made into a 1978 (I think) movie, starring Linda Blair - this isn't it. I believe that movie was originally called Stranger In My House. The premise and people aren't even the same. This movie was completely predictable, right from the very beginning. I had the entire "twist" figured out within about a half hour into the movie. It was in Lifetime Movie Network, and I had TiVo-ed it, not really expecting to get anything out of the movie - and I didn't. It was a fluff piece...a way to waste time. It's always kinda funny to see Corin "Corky" Nemec as a complete psychopath. However, David Gallagher, who plays the son in the movie, has dark, almost black hair. Such a sharp contrast from his 7th Heaven role. Also, Corky Nemec's name in this movie is Simon. How weird that David Gallagher ended up playing a Simon later heh
