Sam (Dustin Prince) and his family - wife Joyce (Erika Hoveland) and
daughter Rebecca (Angelina Danielle Cama) - are terrorized by a stalker.
Now nothing big has happened yet, but the detective on the case, Savannah
(Scout Taylor-Compton), takes Sam's claims very seriously and investigates
on his behalf. So everything seems to turn for the better for Sam, but
then the family's stalker sends him a photo showing him in bed with Julia
(Kayla Kelly), his affair from work, which of course compromises his
situation. Then one night, he finds a person entering the house, but he
manages to wrestle down and ultimately kill the intruder - to find it to
be the boyfriend (Keir Gilchrist) of Rebecca he has never really cared
for, so little so that he actually mentioned to Savannah that he suspected
him. Of course now that he has killed him, that compromises Sam's
situation even more, so he buries the body somewhere in the woods - and
the next day receives a photo of himself doing just that. Sam finds
himself more and more cornered, and thus acts more and more erratic, so
much so that Savannah starts to suspect him of being not entirely innocent
in the case. Until the family stalker actually does enter Sam's home and
attack him and his family - and the outcome of the ensuing fight turns a
good part of what we thought we knew about the story on its head ...
Now admittedly this film starts out as a formula thriller of
the psycho home invasion variety, but the longer it goes the most it
manages to surprise its audience and catch them off-guard, with unexpected
twists and turns aplenty, with an unexpectedly ambiguous yet relatable
protagonist at its center. And a directorial approach that manages to keep
the mystery high on all twists and turns, and a very competent key cast
really help to make this one cool piece of genre cinema.
