About this movie

Arriving unannounced on the doorstep of the Peterson family, recently discharged soldier David brings a final message of love from their recently deceased son, Caleb, with whom he served. Still grieving over Caleb's tragic death in combat, the Petersons welcome David into their home and their lives. Humble, helpful and unfailingly polite, David turns out to be the perfect guest, filling the void left by Caleb. He consoles Caleb's mom, helps dad Spencer get ahead at work, teaches teenager Luke how to defend himself against bullies and rids rebellious daughter Anna of her loser boyfriend. But David's unorthodox problem-solving methods begin to raise Anna's suspicions as a wave of shocking and unexplained violence spreads through their small town. When her inquiries into his past raise a red flag with a super-secret private military organization, it sets the stage for a deadly final conflict. 2013 HanWay Films, Snoot Entertainment.

Ratings and reviews

Decent movie to watch. Not a block buster, but then again their isn't much these days rating. Worthy view

Really enjoyed this, from the action scenes all the way to the music and art direction. Keeps you guessing all the way through with a mad dog ending. Plenty of stars

Interesting at first until he started killing everyone. The more people he killed the more stupid it became.
