About this movie

Sarah Jefferson (Ormston) is happily married to Andrew. They have two children: Kirsten (11) and Michael (9). Sarah is being stalked - but does not know it. Her stalker Nigel (Savin) is a sinister and intelligent loner with a command of both forensics and electronics, and a pathological need to control.

Sarah works in a florists. Nigel buys flowers each day, only to destroy them in an initial display of an anger that manifests to show the true psychopathy of his character. Using his skills to augment the execution of his crimes Nigel embroils in a degree of control that extends far beyond Sarah to include her family and the police.

Nigel plans to abduct Sarah. His attention to detail involves a subterfuge that leaves little doubt in people's minds that Sarah and Andrew's relationship was on the rocks. So compelling is his manipulation of reality that even Sarah and Andrew doubt each other in a way that was previously inconceivable.

Andrew is pushed to the edge. This in turn leaves him vulnerable to exploitation. A fact not ignored in this gripping drama that contains twists to the end.

Ratings and reviews

Now, I've deduced all the other reviewers must either be family members of the cast or crew, or smoking drugs. This was awful. Truly awful. I have just been robbed of £2.50. I'd have preferred to have thrown it away than spend it on this garbage. I had to give it 1 star to review, but it doesn't even deserve that. Google you should be ashamed of yourselves for charging people for this

Honestly I gave up as the script is ridiculous and the acting was terrible, especially the guy playing the kidnapper. I rented it purely out of curiosity of just how bad it could be and the other one star ratings have got it spot on. Don't waste your time xD

A really good thriller/drama. It has a slow start as we get to know the family but after that the terror begins. The dialogue is slick & delightful. A friend of mine recommended this movie & I was in 2 minds after seeing some of the negative reviews but realising these reviewers had only watched 20 mins or so I gave it a chance & boy am I pleased I did. The creepy, twisted villain, Nigel, played so delightfully by Jason Savin, is full of pure evil, most of it aimed at his poor victim (Amy Ormston). The acting was so real at times I felt pulled into the movie. As others have said -this movie will stay with you long after it has finished. Savin really has created a memorable screen villain.
