8/10
moody, creepy, obsessive
12 November 2015
Tom Witzky (Kevin Bacon) is a Chicago blue collar lineman concerned that his wife Maggie (Kathryn Erbe) is pregnant. They have a son name Jake. Her sassy sister Lisa (Illeana Douglas) hypnotizes him at a party and he starts having visions of vanished neighborhood girl Samantha Kozac (Jennifer Morrison). They get Samantha's sister Debbie Kozac (Liza Weil) as babysitter to Jake. When Jake tells her about visions of Samantha, she tries to take him to her mother. Tom becomes obsessed with Samantha's disappearance.

There is great creepiness and moodiness. Kevin Bacon's performance is brilliant. His obsessive turn is amazing. The dark creepiness is perfect for the supernatural story. It brings out the darkness in a very everyday neighborhood. It's a great ghost story.
