I love this movie so much

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

****SPOILERS**** Totally unbelievable story about a 17 year old car washer Michael Nowlin, Chis Jacot, who's used as a toy boy by one of his clients the sexy ex-fashion model Vive Jameson, Jayne Heitmeyer, who after a number of romps in the hey or bed gets tired of him and throws the love-sick Michael out of the house. Throwing a fit or vase against the wall Michael storms out and ends up getting drunk as he drive back home to his widowed mom's Sandra Nowlin's, Tracy Nelson, place to sleep it off.It's the very next day at the breakfast table as his mom demands to know where a by then sobered up Michael was out that late at night that the news of Vive's murder is broadcast on the morning TV news! Working in a car dealership in town Vive was one of Sandar's clients and both her and Michael knew her quite well! In fact it was Michael who was going to Vive's place late at night, after school, for the last two months to wash her car. As it turned out he was also working off the books by having an affair with her.It didn't take long for the local police represented by detectives Bruning & Feria, Bruce Boxleitner & Lorraine Ansell, to sniff out the truth about Michael's activities that fateful evening in that it was determined by the police pathologist that the murdered Vive had sex that evening with the person who ended up killing her! And that person, surprise surprise, according to the DNA evidence at the murder scene was non other then Michael Nowlin! The movie goes into high gear with Sandra doing the detective work that both Det. Bruning & Feria were either to lazy or incompetent to do by tracking down Vive's killer as her son, who already has a past criminal record, Michael is facing the rest of his life behind bars if convicted in Vive's murder. It takes a while but Sandra does in fact find a number of important clues that lead to a local liquor store when Michael despite being under age was sold a bottle of booze at the very time that Vive was murdered!***SPOILERS*** In Sandra trying to get the counterman Johnny, Luigi Saracino,to come clean and tell the cops and the D.A's office that Michael is innocent by him not being at the murder scene he's gunned down by Vive's killer who just happened to be at the store checking out the wine cellar! Now with evidence of her son's innocence by her tracking down, at Ace's Pawnshop, a gold bracelet that Vive's killer hocked Sandra is now in danger of being murdered herself by him! ***SPOILER ALERT*** It's at he very end of the movie that we finally get our moneys worth in who's really behind Vive's murder. This all comes out in the wash, of the Jameson family's dirty laundry, when we realize that it all had to do with a hit-job contracted on her by someone Vive's would have never suspected. This person had it in for her for years in being responsible for her moms untimely death from over-drinking. It was Vive's husband David Jameson, Barry Flatman, who was completely blindsided by his wife's murderer and accused Michael for it that got the surprise of his life not only when his wife's killer reveled himself but who put him up to it! And even worst of all how Vive took him for a fool and sucker all these years that in the end, in her overreaching herself, backfired on her!

Poor acting, not well researched for location, an actor (the judge) mispronounced names of a city located in Pennsylvania (lancaster) where the movie takes place. One of the actors goes to a Liqour Store in the movie at 9 pm and is there till 10 pm when all stores of this nature are run by the state and close a 8 pm in the state of PA. some unbelievable crap and i do mean crap occurs in this movie which are outrageous and totally unbelievable. The story line: A model is having an affair with a 17 year old high school student, she breaks up with him and ends up dead. all clues lead to the high school student. no one believes him or his mother so it is up to her to figure out who really killed the model if anyone. there are some OK plot twists in the movie but for the most part it is OK for a made for TV movie made in Canada.

About a mother who tries to save her son from murder. Plot is predictable and acting poor. Even with the likes of Bruce Boxlieter. Won''t go into the plot except to say its a good pop corn movies. That means you can leave the room anytime and not miss much. I have in the past critiqued the acting of Tracey Nelson. Daughter of Rick, she obviously didn't inherit any of his talent. She has an annoying pout and high whiny voice that grates on your nerves. A mature woman who sounds like Shirly Temple. Her hair is stringy, and hanging in her face most of the time. But mainly her acting is amateurish and boring. You don't believe her for a second. Sorry.

This Comment does contain mild spoilers!!! "A Killer Upstairs" is a decent TV movie. The plot is: When Vivian Jamison (Jayne Heitmeyer) is murdered, all fingers point to her lover Michael Nowlin (Christopher Jacot), His mom Sandra (Tracy Nelson) is trying to prove her son is innocent, but the police won't listen. Is the killer still out there? At first the movie is riddled with bad acting,(Barry Flatman as Mr. Jamison) but eventually the movie picks up speed and it gets better. It does have some good twists and turns. Bruce Boxleitner, Tracy Nelson, and Linden Ashby put in good performances. Overall, it's worth seeing if you are looking for a satisfactory mystery.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com
