A wonderful twisting tale of people's shifting character. At times it feels like a slasher flick, at times a thriller, and occasionally almost (but not quite) romantic. Strong performances and an unpredictable plot mean an enjoyable ride.

This is not a horror film, but it does get tense. Because the house they live in is just windows everywhere "spoilers" it does give a premises of asking yourself "is he there or watching" which made the film super satifing. It ant perfect, but it gets you loving it. Finding out the secrets of the other characters, and make you think. "DON'T BE A D*CK"

Brilliant story. A past schoolfriend meeting someone he knew. someone who obviously did not like him in the past school days. A building crescendo of revenge through gifts causing a once happy marriage to crumble. The wife did not really know her husband as he hid a secret from her but the chance encounter with a past schoolfriend brought all the uglyness to the surface
