    Jim Sheridan directed horror film, starting Daniel Craig, Rachel Weisz and Naomi Watts. Synopsis:
    Soon after moving into their seemingly idyllic new home, a family learns of a brutal crime committed against former residents of the dwelling.

    Here's the trailer, but be warned: it reveals too much. Waaaay too much!

    The plot is bit too familiar to say the least, but I like the cast, so looking forward to this.

    Gonna pass on the trailer (since it's one of "those" trailers), but I'm getting a Garden State vibe from that poster..

    I'll avoid the trailer so. Hang on, is this Jim Sheridan's first attempt at a horror film?

    If it's half as good as Brothers, it will be a piece of **** :P

    I liked Brothers, but Sheridan did kinda screw it up. Maguire comes across as a bit of a psycho from early on, which makes him very unsympathetic. Susanne Bier's original film is so much better.

    Brothers was also another Sheridan film that had a overly revealing trailer. Even the ending was in the trailer.

    For anyone who wants to watch the trailer without getting too spoiled, the first 1.05 seconds are safe. After that a MAJOR twist is revealed, followed by several others.

    ... unless of course the twist in the trailer is a red herring, that it's one of these twist-within-a-twist things, but somehow I doubt it. The fact that reshoots were required (not unusual, but often a bad sign with thrillers) is not good news either.

    Damn, that woulda been a good twist. I don't think I'd have copped that if I was watching it.
