some of the other reviewers are right, this movie will keep you guessing until the end. what exactly is going on? is dr peebles really a bad guy? but he is so likeable of a character. the ending in not pointless but very moving, if you like drama movies. check this out..

This story has an interesting premise. A rather eccentric African-American psychologist moves into a typical American suburb and immediately arouses the suspicions of the old-guard residents there. As these residents start to peer and pry into the psychologist's life, they begin to suspect him of terrible crimes. However at the same time, each of the nosy residents is engaging in some soul-destroying behavior within the privacy of his own home.

The viewer is kept guessing. Is the psychologist really a wife-killer? Or is he simply making the other residents involuntary participants in some unconventional course of psychiatric treatment? Is the psychologist holding a mirror up to the other suburbanites hoping to make them aware of their own crimes?

This would be a really original, absorbing drama. However, it loses its way a little. There is a distracting subplot involving adoption. And the movie's end drags on too long with tiers of explanation. Also, the unfolding of the whole storyline is somewhat muddied with a bit too much quirkiness and occasional illogic.

But this is still a very worthwhile DVD. With a little rewriting, its idea could have been a challenging, award-winning movie.

This is a fresh indie film. It's a dramatic thriller with an undertone of sarcasism. Very unique. I really enjoyed it. 5 stars.

I enjoyed this film. Clever. Tense. It's a good entertaining DVD for a relaxing evening at home.

At the end of this awful movie I was begging for the two hours back. Figured out the hidden meanings and plot in about 15 seconds. A real stink of a movie. The investers in this must still be hoping to recoup their $18!
Oh, a worse movie has yet to cross my path.

This movie sucks beyond belief. Don't waste your money.
You have no idea what's going on until the end of the movie... when you do find out what's going on, it's so dumb and pointless, you'll want to get back the hour and a half you just wasted.
