How and why they classified this as comedy I don't know, but it's underrated for sure. It's one of those movies which you would not check the timebar while watching it. Engaging story, great acting, specially the main actor, and great chemistry between the couple. Having that said, I think it needed a few flashbacks, but that's my personal preference and the story makes complete sense. I believe there is a symbolism in the movie, not that you won't enjoy it as it is, but pay attention: The man in the basement is my grudges, The man in the basement is that person that I know is toxic, yet I still keep them in my life. The man in the basement is my old, useless beliefs and thoughts. So I have to let it go to move forward... I have to let it go to get to the new better parts of my life. Bottom line: I've really enjoyed this movie, I think it was great in both literal and symbolical point of view. 8/10.

But it was nice how underneath the terror there was a heartfelt message and it took a good script to get those pathos out, the actors did a fine job, the Latin guy and the American guy did a spectacular job with a sort of mish mosh dichotomy thing back and forth that made this a worth-while experience! Highly recommend it great job.

I almost didnt watch this because the title alone screams "dont do it," so please excuse my surprise when i say this is a well-done movie. good performances, interesting story, some well-placed humor to not make the lead role a total creeper. the character in the basement couldve used a bit more development. the book scenes couldve gone into more detail, but its cut well enough leave a reasonable impression. worthwhile watch, or victor over low expectations? ignore the title, watch it and find out

Walk on by. Forget this "thing" ever existed. Go pick your nose. Go to poughkipsy. Stare at your wallpaper. ANYTHING you will do or think of, will be BETTER than watching this dreck....

This movie hits every emotion possible. Chris Marquette plays Claude who's wife was recently murdered. The emotion is captivating and you really honestly feel his pain. Manny Montana plays Logan and I honestly started feeling sorry for him as the story unfolds. All the cast were excellent. The writing is very creative and takes you through a wide range of emotion. Very entertaining, flows well, and will capture your emotions. Definitely worth watching and refreshingly different.

The off-off-off-OFF-kilter dramatic thriller "I Hate the Man in My Basement" is about need. The need to grieve, avenge, love, be loved and for human interaction (now that last one's topical, huh?). The unlikely romantic relationship between the remarkably non-stock characters played by Chris Marquette and Nora-Jane Noone needed to work in this film. And it does. These gifted pros are each fantastic singularly and together, no easy feat considering the enormously emotional and nefarious plot points in play here. Not the least of which, that poor guy stashed under the floor.

I love Mr. Montana he is so hot! My rating is biased on how much I love him as an actor. This movie was ok but I wish they would have explained more in the end. It kept me entertained so I do recommend, but still a bit disappointed. At times it was unbelievable ,but the actors played well off each other. An almost happy ending story was a good twist.
