**SPOILERS** Unusual stalker flick filmed as if it was secretly video taped by the sick and homicidal person staring in it Doug the computer geek played by Colin Hanks. We never really see Doug until almost half way into the movie but he's there watching and recording everything that's going on in regards to his voyeurism. What Doug is in to is pretty part time artist Amy, Claudia Talancon, who's the object of his obsessive and uncontrollable obsession.
Sneaking into Amy's home Doug wires it with every spying device known to man to keep up with what she does in regards to her love life that he want's to become a part of. Outside Doug constantly stalks Amy trying top get into a conversation with her that he hopes would lead to romance. At first Doug indeed makes progress with Amy meeting her in a local coffee shop and wowing her with his knowledge, that he found out from spying on her, about Amy's love of both music and art. Doug even knows Amy's favorite but very obscure rock group-"Skinny"-who's never made a hit song or was ever even on the Billboard 100 listings!
Not quite knowing what to make of Doug's strange behavior towards her Amy at first slowly starts to accept him as a friend which drives the guy wacky, in trying to get her to jump into the sack with him, to the point of losing his, the super cool cat that he is, composer! It's when Doug sees Amy fooling around with her boyfriend Matt, Jonathon Trent, on his computer, that's hooked up to his spying devices in Amy's home, that he really starts to lose it. Trying even harder to win over Amy, who by now feels that he's some kind of weirdo, Doug starts to let his true feeling out about her without even, by him being just one step away from being committed, realizing it!
***SPOILERS*** As it turns out it's Amy's friend Jen, Jordana Spiro, who gets Doug's number in finding out that he's lying about being a native of Seattle, which he's always telling Amy, and who knows what else. With his act, in impressing Amy, slowly falling apart Doug's big secret falls apart with it in her finding out that he bugged her home and was watching her at all hours of the day and night with her clothes on as well as off! In the final moments of the movie Doug now exposed as a pervert and dangerous crackpot resorts to type and lays into a defenseless and terrified Amy who by then finally realized what a sick and dangerous psycho he really is and the big mistake she made in getting involved with him!
