This creepy thriller belongs in the same family as the movie "The Sixth Sense." Deals with a past that is haunting the main character and the sudden realization that in an instant makes everything around them make sense. The premise is quite simple, a loving family of four moves into an quaint and idealistic home... their dream house. The husband and father, Will Atenton (Daniel Craig) has stepped away from his job to spend more time with his family and write a book. Libby (Rachel Weisz), his wife is more than thrilled to have more time with her husband and two beautiful girls.
But something is not quite right, the girls begin to see a man outside their home and they soon find out that grizzly murders had taken place previously in the house. A man is believed to have murdered his wife and two children. Will desperately tries to find more information about what has occurred to put his family at ease, but the more he finds out the more disturbing the facts are surrounding their dream house. Who is this man that supposedly killed his family and why is he still lurking about as a free man? Will their mysterious neighbor (Naomi Watts) from across the street help to shed some light on what happened in the house?
You will have to watch to answer those questions, although it is not a plausible scenario, it is a good thriller and worth the watch.
I give it a 7 out of 10.
Next up is "Blood Creek."
