In this psychological thriller from the director of Eagle Eye and Disturbia, Dana (Kate Beckinsale) and David (Mel Raido) move from Brooklyn to a once-grand southern mansion with their 5 year old son looking for a fresh start. But Dana's discovery of a secret room unleashes unexplainable events that test her sanity and slowly reveal the home's terrifying past.

A series of surreally unlikeable people do nothing for awhile and then start dying for no discernible reason, at least not that the film bothers to even hint at. I'm not even sure this qualifies as a horror movie, unless of course you think cute dogs or the bad guy from Deadwood are supremely terrifying. I'd rather watch a Windows 95 screensaver while a particularly aggressive toddler attacks my throat with crayons then watch this again.

Jumbled script. It confused me. Like it would go from frame to frame without making any kind of sense. The overall premise of the movie wouldve been great had they not tried to cram so much into 90 mins. They should've focused more on the backstory of the house to give it a more authentic feel, and instead of constantly jumping into flashbacks give one or two but not continuously throughout the film making it look choppy and confusing to the audience. Great idea just very poor execution.

I'll give this movie a three stars. Good plot, acting was good for the lead character but for the husband and boy, something was off to me in their performance/s. Not scary at all though, so if your looking for something to make you jump, this won't be it. Good for multiple watches, as long as it's been a long time between them. There is several movies w/ similar plots but this wasn't bad. If your into Mental thrillers/hauntings, then I'd give this one a shot. Wasn't much filler, AKA not too many scenes that were boring beginning scene was a little kooky but it gets better. I think they could have cut out the scene/s with her smoking/talking to * and I would like to have known of what was shown with said * if it indeed happened with * or was it just something she saw/imagined?
