A Killer Upstairs is a 2005 thriller movie that stars Tracy Nelson, Christopher Jacot, and Bruce Boxleitner. Directed by Douglas Jackson, the movie tells the story of a young woman named Sharon Doyle (Tracy Nelson) who hires a tenant named Jack (Christopher Jacot) to rent out the upstairs apartment in her home to make ends meet. However, Jack is not the perfect tenant she thought he was, and soon Sharon finds herself at the mercy of a man who is more dangerous than she ever imagined.

Sharon Doyle is a single mother who struggles to make ends meet after her husband's death. She decides to rent out her spacious house's upstairs apartment to a young and charming tenant named Jack, who turns out to be a college student. Jack is tall, dark, and handsome, and he quickly fits into the Doyle family's everyday life. He even develops a bond with Sharon's son Sean, which leaves Sharon feeling relieved that she finally found a tenant who's trustworthy and takes care of her family.

However, things start to take a sinister turn when Jack becomes increasingly obsessed with Sharon's family. When Sharon confronts Jack about his behavior, he becomes aggressive, and she realizes that her tenant is not the person he pretends to be. Jack begins to stalk and terrorize Sharon and her son, leading to a tense game of cat and mouse.

As Jack's obsession with Sharon grows, she seeks help from the authorities, but nobody believes her. Sharon soon realizes that she's on her own and must find a way to get Jack out of her life before it's too late. But as she tries to take matters into her own hands, she puts herself and her son in grave danger and realizes that she must face the killer upstairs if she wants to survive.

A Killer Upstairs is a suspenseful thriller that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. The movie is well-made, with a strong storyline and a cast that delivers an outstanding performance. Tracy Nelson gives a particularly memorable performance as Sharon, portraying the character's vulnerability and strength in a way that is both believable and compelling. Christopher Jacot is equally impressive as the charming yet dangerous Jack, making the audience feel uneasy from the first moment he appears on screen. The chemistry between the two actors is palpable, which makes their interactions all the more potent.

The tension in the movie builds up slowly, with the audience being kept in the dark about Jack's true intentions. The suspense and fear factor gradually increase, with sharp editing, tense music, and claustrophobic camera-work that make the viewers feel Sharon's sense of entrapment.

Overall, A Killer Upstairs is a well-made thriller that keeps the audience on the edge of their seats until the very end. With a solid storyline, strong cast, and excellent direction, the movie is a must-watch for fans of the genre.
