Simon (Jason Bateman) and Robyn (Rebecca Hall) are a young married couple whose life is going just as planned until a chance encounter with an acquaintance from Simon's high school sends their world into a harrowing tailspin. Simon doesn't recognize Gordo (Joel Edgerton) at first, but after a series of uninvited encounters and mysterious gifts prove troubling, a horrifying secret from the past is uncovered after more than 20 years. As Robyn learns the unsettling truth about what happened between Simon and Gordo, she starts to question: how well do we really know the people closest to us, and are past bygones ever really bygones? From the producer of Whiplash and The Purge, Jason Blum, comes a chilling psychological thriller that marks the feature directorial debut of acclaimed actor and writer Joel Edgerton (The Great Gatsby, Zero Dark Thirty, Warrior). 2015 STX Productions, LLC and Blumhouse Productions, LLC.

Valutazioni e recensioni

A mix of drama, mystery and horror comes a intelligent and well directed film. Aided by the great acting and writing that drives the film to a ending that will want you to take a cold shower afterwards. 4.5/5

Interesting film, leading you to trust different character's at various stages throughout the film. Quite an impressive psychological horror with some great acting and chilling suspense

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.
