Best thriller I've seen in a while.
Disturbia tells the story of a teenage boy named Kale who is sentenced
to three months house arrest after punching a teacher in the face for making a comment about his recently deceased father. When his mother takes away his TV and his computer, he resorts to spying on the houses surrounding him. Things begin to get frightening when he begins to suspect one of his neighbours is a serial killer. He gets his friends involved with his impromptu investigation, and soon the neighbour realizes he's being watched...And he's not too happy about it. Disturbia is loosely based off the 1954 Alfred Hitchcock classic Rear Window, but it is still a film all in itself, and it is the best thriller I've seen in a while. What makes this movie better than most horror movies that are released today is that is doesn't rely on excessive gore and gross out tactics to frighten you. It relies on mood and suspense, and that works so much better. As the film went on, the tension got so high that I was literally on the edge of my seat rubbing my hands together because I was so anxious to see what was going to happen next. I actually felt the adrenaline rush that the characters in the film must have been feeling when they were snooping around in the neighbour's garage. The movie has a realistic feel of how creepy it would be to have a serial killer living across the street from you and you had no way to prove it. Everything in this movie is done well. The writing, the directing, the way it all pans out. I was actually shocked when I left the theatre over how good this movie really was. The acting was very good from everybody involved. Shia LaBeouf has come a long way from Even Stevens. Something tells me that he has a nice career ahead of him. David Morse is perfectly sinister as the neighbour. He's just one of those actors that you might not know who he is to hear his name, but he pops up here and there and you always say, "Cool, it's that guy." Overall, this was an amazing thriller, and I'm glad I went to see it because I really wasn't expecting that much. It leads me to wonder why Hollywood continues to pump out absolute garbage like the Saw trilogy, Hostel, and Dead Silence when they could be making movies like this instead. 8/10.

Rear window: this is terrific film that clearly shows the mastery and the skill of Hitchcock to jump into a someone mind, pull out the most terrifing reflections and shoe them to the audiance.
Jaws: This is deffinetly one of the best horror film ever. No other name but jaws inspires more fear.

Close the Window! (Caution - Some spoilers)
This movie is OK if you want to spend a couple of hours trying to
outguess the writer or the director. As a thriller, well, it's sort of silly. What is incredibly absurd is that someone would actually go into the house of a man thought to be a serial killer. You really have to be extremely stupid or just a terrible character in a poorly written plot. ------------------- Spoiler ahead? -------------- The other absurdity in this flick is that you have a fellow who is killing women right and left and yet...he allows the curtains in his house to be wide open so anyone from outside can look in! Doesn't make sense at all and for me, at least, it killed the film.. |
