Harry Connick Jr., Katherine Heigl, Israel Broussard, and Madison Iseman in Fear of Rain (2021)

For teenager Rain Burroughs (Madison Iseman), a diagnosis with schizophrenia means that every day is a struggle as she tries to figure out which of the disturbing images, harrowing voices, and
traumatic feelings she experiences are real and which are all in her mind. But when Rain insists against her parents' (Katherine Heigl and Harry Connick, Jr.) advice that the shadows and cries from her
neighbor's attic are hiding a dark secret, she enlists help from Caleb (Israel Broussard), the charmingly awkward new boy at school - who himself may not be real. Written and directed by Castille Landon
(After We Fell, After Ever Happy), Fear of Rain is a terrifying thriller that takes you inside Rain's mind as she confronts the frightening hallucinations of her imagination to determine whether there is real horror hiding right next door.

Good Acting and OK Final Act

Any horror movie that rates over 5.0 I will watch. That's because horror movies are inherently flawed when the act 3 or 4 "reveal" finally shows. The reveal is usually something we cannot believe, and most times when we don't believe the movie falls apart.

This movie has a reasonable premise and enough suspense to make it to the final act. At that point it doesn't fail miserably so I give it a 7.

Actually good watchable characters and suspense. Worth a watch.

Not afraid

Well maybe a little bit ... or maybe quite a lot. If you have a person that imagines things (and individuals for that matter), how much do you play into their fears and what they believe they saw? There are quite a few nice and decent twists and turns in this and it is a very well made thriller.

Also played quite well. The guessing what might be keeps your interest up and the tension high from start to finish. It is not a masterpiece of course, but not every movie has to be, yes? If you agree and keep your expectations to a certain degree, there is fun to be had here.

Engaging

I think this is quite a good film. The story twists and turns, and makes you wonder what is real and what isn't. The portrayal of family suffering is also very engaging.

10 stars for casting slenderwoman

I will see her in my nightmares for sure.

This is just another rear window/disturbia type deal. Really fun one though.

Hmmm, I don't know what film other reviewers have been watching.

It's not a bad film, it's just not a nine like others have said and it's not an accurate depiction of schizophrenia. It's more of a less sophisticated take on A Beautiful Mind with the story line of Hitchcock's Rear Window. I feel like the writer watched both of these films on a Friday night, then wrote this the next day. It's a little slow and would have benefited from being trimmed by twenty minutes or so. The dialogue feels forced and lacks flow. If you're bored, give it a go.

Trivia
Many of the medications that Rain takes (around 19:33) for her schizophrenia diagnosis are listed atypical anti-psychotics (many are prescribed for mood disorders as well).

Goofs
25 minutes into the movie, when Caleb states all the repairs that he's done to his old 1974 FORD Torino 4 door. He states that he replaced the rack and pinion. That car does not have a a rack and pinion. It has a conventional steering gear box and center link steering system.
