Yvonne is the only real redeeming quality of the movie. The kids whine ALOT, and it almost ruins the film. Yvonne, however, is the saving grace. There are some significant gaps in the plot, and it does make the film less enjoyable than it could be. It almost felt like a watered down version of The Strangers.
Laura (Yvonne Strahovski) drives her car with her two young daughters Kayla (Anna Pniowsky) and Maddie (Abigail Pniowsky) to the remote lake house that belongs to her family. Her husband has an important meeting and will head later. Soon they are threatened by a psychopath and have to fight to survive. Will they succeed?
"He's Out There" is a full of clichés horror film with a storyline with nothing new: a family trapped in danger in a remote area threatened by a masked psychopath. The performance of Yvonne Strahovski and the atmosphere are the best offered to the viewers. But on the other hand, there are two annoying girls that irritate any viewer with their attitudes, whining and screams. My vote is four.
Title (Brazil): Not Available

I love horror and will give most gore a chance. I love blondie from The Handmaid's Tale so I was eager to see what she could do here. She's definitely good at being dramatic and I felt like she really was in danger for a second. The script was so lackluster and literally went nowhere. I started noticing inconsistencies immediately and they continued throughout. I'm not sure what I just watched, but the very ending was redundant and stupid.
Well contrary to the negative reviews I thought this film was actually pretty good. Im an old hat at horror from zombies to Siberian Film, I've delved into most genres. Nothing scares me or is a new concept anymore but this was a good tense 1 1/2 hours. Some jumpy bits and some gore all the great ingredients needed in a horror pie. Yes the kids screams where shrill, but they are kids and were scared after all!! There were also some anomalies where you think, nah that person should be dead, but hey arent a lot of films like that?! Decent film and good to see a strong female lead!
This movie is actually a love story gone wrong. A masked guy with talents in pastry and painting after living for a long time alone in a forest, falls in love with Yvonne Strahovski (can you blame him?). However, is she already has two very loud hyperactive kids that ruin the movie for everyone. In a futile attempt to fix the move and give himself a very happy ending he tries to bribe the kids with cupcakes and drawings. Kids get even louder, and the audience starts rooting for the masked avenger while checking out info on contraception at their mobiles.
In the end our guy just gives up and will probably try to get it right in the next movie.
