I know that sounds like a nitpick but the house was too nice and didn't fit well in the story. It seems to me that someone obsessed with his past, like Branscombe Richmond (who gives a nice performance), would keep the house exactly the way it was when his family was still around. It seems to me that Richmond got in trouble with the bank because he spent all of his money doing renovations. Other than the miscast house, "The Walls Are Watching" was a pretty good watch. Thanks mostly to an enjoyable cast.

Where's the SWAT team??

Along with everything else that makes this a typical Lifetime bad movie, there is an obvious assault and kidnapping that is witnessed by a neighbor walking her dog, she calls 911, and the one detective is reluctant to go, finally does hours later (because it's suddenly dark of night) and no backup of police or SEAT are ever called. This couple have a definite law suit.
was looking for redemption from the movie "Driven"

But I didn't get it. What a terrible waste of time. Cop was trying hard to be a "Columbo" type but it didn't quite work for him. They must have used a totally different time measurement for this movie. Ivie said backup was "two minutes away" and, by my watch, it was about 20 minutes before they showed up. Oh, that's right, the LA traffic.
"Nothing to see here, folks!" I thought the 2022 movies might be really good but, so far- not so much.

The plot was all wrong

This was your typical LMN movie according to them, a lunatic who was obsessed with the house that he helped build and watched his kid grow up in. Now it's being foreclosed on by a couple who want to turn it over for a profit, but the lunatic decides he wants to keep the house and will do so, no matter what he has to do, even assault and kidnap the wife. Unfortunately he is killed by the wife after a ill advised stupid Russian roulette scene is insert to explain the killing.
IMO, it would have been a better movie if it starts out the same where the former owner loses the house but it's to a shady bank executive colluding with a couple who end up killing a teller at the bank who knows the truth and try to pin it on the former owner.
