This movie is apparently a remake of Sleep Tight. Except, Sleep Tight actually had a very interesting, multi-layered plot, with some great actors, and an excellent ending. This remake, Door Lock, is just meh.

The few negative comments about the female characters' intelligence states that she was too slow and wasted opportunities but from the beginning, she has been portrayed as paranoid, a bit of a pushover and way too shy and introvert so despite that, she showed many instances of smart decisions and yet some people still call her dumb.

Being scared is like getting drunk, you never know how someone's going to react, some get all pumped up, some just lie down and some start crying!

I liked the movie, it's was pretty good!

What this movie to me achieved perfectly were the eerie, desolated cityscapes. Some really nice shots there. And as the other review pointed out: the insecurity of a female living alone there.

Agreed, that some of the actions by the lead character and supporting characters seemed illogical, but it wasn't too bad, compared to similar movies.

Makes me wanna buy 5 different locks.

Well not your ordinary key that is. I hadn't seen that sort of lock before, but I reckon they can work quite well. Not all the time and not in this movie of course. But then the characters don't always work in full capacity either, so there's that too of course.

If you don't mind certain flaws, the movie might be entertaining and thrilling enough for you. It depends on your own threshold and how much you are willing to forgive ...

I had read reviews before actually watching the movie and someone mentioned, he couldn't stand all the suspense and just turned it off before the end. He was right, it doesn't let you rest your eyes for a second.

I also want to emphasize that the movie isn't exactly a remake of the Spanish movie - Sleep Tight. Yes, the way the intruder behaves is similar, yet the outcomes and the ways he acts is totally different. Though it may be easier to guess who the real killer is, if you have watched Sleep Tight recently.
