The Glow (2002 TV Movie)
7/10
Old, mysterious folks at home.
12 October 2014
This is a not-too-bad TV thriller starring Superman actor Dean Cain as Matt Lawrence, who moves into an NYC luxury apartment with his wife Jackie (Portia de Rossi). They find that the apartment building by many elderly neighbors and, when a young couple in their building disappears and the Lawrences start getting harassed by two of the elderly neighbors, the mystery ensues.

This movie has its moments of intrigue, sending you chills like most mainstream horror/thriller movies do. It is kind of exciting seeing the Lawrences finding themselves stuck and scared in a building full of mysterious elders, and that, coupled with their tight financial situation, provides some suspense that makes you eager to know what the story unfolds.

However, the movie does lack some plot twists and turns. The acting is average for the most part and the plot is somewhat predictable. However, it is good seeing Dean Cain star in a post-Superman production. It's not a bad movie for a time-passer.

Grade B-
