'The Tenant' is a film by Roman Polanski that has been forgotten by most of the film community, and for good reason because it makes no sense and is downright awful. It stars Polanski himself as a shy and timid new tenant to an apartment complex. He soon realizes that his neighbors are extremely sensitive and don't like the slightest disturbance. He learns the former tenant before him had committed suicide. A dress of the former tenant is left behind, and for some reason, not explained in the film, Polanski keeps the dress throughout the entire movie. As the story progresses, Polanski grow increasingly paranoid of his neighbors, having bizarre hallucinations at night. The movie is well done because of the talented director, but the story is too far-out and absurd to take seriously. There are some creepy moments, while others are embarrassing, but the entire film is ruined by the ridiculous ending
score 3/10
