Up Against Amanda (2000)

Emerging from the cold shadows of her abusive past and an eight-year sentence in a juvenile mental institution, Amanda Lear steps into freedom. Her therapist, who doubles as her secret lover, gifts her a year's lease on an upscale house, setting the stage for Amanda's next dark obsession. As she steps over the threshold of her new abode, her gaze falls on Richard, her unsuspecting neighbor, triggering a disturbing chain of events. In a chilling turn of events, Amanda eliminates her doctor, concealing her actions under the guise of needing Richard's assistance to install a security system. As Richard unwittingly becomes embroiled in Amanda's twisted game, she begins to exploit his personal life, spying on him through hidden cameras and tapping his phone calls. Amid this, Amanda manipulates a growing distance between Richard and his wife, who is away in Nashville pursuing a music career, to further her dark intentions. Amanda's relentless pursuit of Richard's undivided attention escalates into a dangerous obsession. As the temperature in the hot tub rises, the question remains: will Richard discern the sinister plot unfolding next door before it's too late? Engrossed in this macabre dance of manipulation, viewers are left on the edge of their seats, anticipating the next move in the chilling game of cat and mouse.
