TIFF - Review of Intruders

Review - 5 out of 5 - Don't miss out on watching this

I don't always give out this high of a rating, especially this early in the festival. This movie was incredible.

It is based on the concept that we pass our childhood fears onto our children. If you were ever afraid of the boogeyman then this movie will give you the creeps. It is definitely a thriller and you are left on the edge of your seat trying to figure out what is real and what isn't. It has you questioning whether there really is a boogeyman and if there is, what would happen if you see him as an adult.

The director created this film based on discussions he had with his producers on the origin of fear. As adults we tend to use fear as a motivator to prevent our children from doing something. What would happen if we pass our fears onto our children?

I will be surprised if this does not do well at the box office. If you are a Clive Owen fan you will definitely love this. I will however be checking my closets tonight because you never know what lurks in the dark.
