The harrowing story of a disturbed young man's attempts to win the affections of an unsuspecting young woman. When Doug first sees Amy, he instantly falls for her and begins to watch her every move, going so far as to set up spy cameras in her apartment. However, as his fascination grows into obsession he's no longer satisfied with just watching.
Alone With Her has the kind of high ick factor that leaves you squirming -- not because Doug is so diabolical a creation, but because what he does to satisfy his pathology is so practical.

Leadenly scripted and blandly overliteral and therefore never capitalizes on the provocativeness of its premise.

Even a conventional, albeit cynical, ending can't ruin such effective mood-making.

Alone With Her plays like an extended voyeur video with nothing new to say about hidden cameras or stalkers or anything.

Alone With Her is a pretty engaging tale, and it's refreshing to see a well-acted, suspenseful drama made without a bloated budget or a lot of bloodletting.
