Prigioniero nel buio

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.

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...

The plot is iffy and I regularly found myself yelling "what is wrong with you?" at the good guys. That said, the acting is excellent all the way around. Michael Hogan in particular is chillingly effective. He's a stellar actor and well worth watching in any role, and this movie is no exception.

Victoria is almost your usual everybody-thinks-I'm-crazy Lifetime heroine, but puts in a better performance than most as do the rest of the cast. there's good chemistry between the husband and wife, and the daughter was a lot less snooty, as Lifetime usually dictates. their family actually seemed to truly love each other.

The dialogue and shooting style are what separate this from most of these women in jeopardy thrillers that Lifetime has cornered the market on.

And wait, what a truly suspenseful character?... Michael Hogan plays probably the creepiest neighbor ever. Good monologue about his dead dog, kind of like a Kathy Bates Misery unstable character-feel. Would've liked to see more of his character. He's the kind of actor that when he talks, you lean in and listen. All in all, Confined is a fun ride for a small budget movie. I was pleasantly surprised.

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
