The Couple Next Door Review: I Wanted To Like Starz's Home Thriller But It Kept Losing Focus
The Couple Next Door attempts to lure us in with a thrilling tale of secrecy and distrust, only to overload on hollow tensions.

However, the result is a muddled thriller series that races to a convoluted end.
When Evie (Eleanor Tomlinson) and Pete (Alfred Enoch) move into a new neighborhood, they form an instant connection with some friendly neighbors.

Meanwhile, there is also a cult religion subplot, a mob storyline, multiple romances, a creepy neighbor, and so much more to keep the behavior going from one twisted moment to the next.
