They wanted a tenant in the worst way.And that's what they got.
Patty and Drake want their downstairs tenant to pay the rent.He won't.They want him to leave.He won't.And the tenant, a sociopathic scam artist, has made sure he has the law on his side.
"Check All References" may be a landlord credo, and in the case of this jolting cat-and-mouse thriller, the references are impeccable.Melanie Griffith and Matthew Modine play the over-mortgaged couple whose hope of keeping their renovated Victorian dream home depends on leasing the downstairs.Michael Keaton is Carter Hayes, a frighteningly dangerous nightmare who's out to claim the house for himself.And John Schlesinger (Midnight Cowboy) directs, lifting Pacific Heights to unsettling heights of palpable suspense.
