A surprising thriller

Rating: 8/10 (11 May 2017)

I must say that I was delightfully please by watching this movie. It is rare to find talent in Hollywood these days so when a movie like this comes along and gives us a script and performance we have our faith that all is not lost in the art of cinema. There are a lot of Hitchcockian elements in this picture, despite some comedic scenes, and the actors involved all keep us hooked in our seats. I also got the feel that there were some elements of H. P. Lovecraft sewn into this story. I don't know if that was deliberate, accidental or just my modest impression, but the writers have truly outdone themselves. Bravo!
