The Ex Next Door

About This Movie

So, 'The Ex Next Door' from 2019 is an interesting little TV thriller that dives into the messy waters of obsession and jealousy. The premise has a real soap opera vibe, which can be a double-edged sword, but it works surprisingly well here. Katie, played by a solid actress, faces off against Louisa, the ex who's got more than just a few screws loose. The tension builds steadily, and you can almost feel the weight of the atmosphere pressing in as Louisa's schemes begin to take shape. It’s not groundbreaking or anything, but the pacing keeps you engaged, and the performances are just enough to sell the uneasy dynamics. The practical effects are minimal but effective in heightening those moments of psychological dread.
