Prigioniero nel buio

Not a bad movie everything just about okay with this good acting photography was pleasant to watch and the old man was quite believable well worth a look

For certainly the leading lady doesn't. I found myself rooting for the villain. For certainly Michael Hogan gave an outstanding performance. He had me glued to every move and line he uttered. With a sensitive face and distinguished looks he was wonderful. Emma Caulfield was just awful. Hard faced, overly made up (check a close up of her heavy mascara eyes) in every scene wearing skin tight jeans and tee shirts (she has grown up daughter) and her too long straight bleached stringy hair covering her face most of the time. She was downright obnoxious in this film and I was praying someone would get rid of her. Why do all these actresses and female news people have the same look? Bleached hair, too long, straight as though they just woke up and needed to brush their hair. It's a terrible look and it's passing it on to all our younger women to copy. I can count every other female on the street looking the same and talking on a cell phone. The all American woman. Anyway, I couldn't stand Caulfield's look and acting. David James Elliott fared better and could have been better had he had a decent leading lady. Melanie Papolia as the daughter seemed more mature than her mother. Erica Carroll didn't have much to do, but it was a pleasure to watch this lady on screen.

Get rid of Caulfield. Please LMN, no more of her.

You know, I really thought this was going to be a BAD movie,and I watched it anyway because nothing else jumped at me, and the fact that it's based on a true story was intriguing to me. A young couple moves to a nice suburban Seattle neighborhood, and immediately weird things are abode next door. The young pretty wife gets interested in the goings on, and begins a quazi-investigation. the things that make this movie work are the understated performances, which is really hard to do, ana a strong script, story arc, and premise. Not so great: a sort of predictable ending. This easily could have been a breakout movie for this director along the lines of an M. Night Shylamon (SP?), but it narrowly misses the mark. it's worth a watch, though, but don't expect the Sixth Sense...

This is exactly everything you'd expect for a suspense film. Perfect plot, convincing characters, a simple set that draws you in to the connectedness of the neighborhood. The focal point of the film is centered and moves timely. You are drawn in from one moment to the next by items that gradually reveal themselves. Ominous soundtrack and imaging effects. The only thing that could have improved this film would have been more unique depth to the characters. Highly recommended for anyone who loves the suspense genre without all the gore or added drama. I found this movie on FreeVee - the Amazon sponsored app.

I was pleasantly suprised! Not bad for a lifetime movie, kept you guessing til the end, unexpected twist ending. There were a couple of holes along the way but those plot holes were feel towards the end of the movie. The person who you thought was innocent turned out not to be so innocent after all. I was glad to see them both pay.
