a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

I really enjoyed watching it. It was very calm and interesting to see what happenes. However, the only one thing I disliked about this film is the sound system they used the would have a silent scene then immediately the will insert this high sound which will make you freak out and jump a little. Overall, the story is unique it was unpredictable and well acted cast.

A couple relocates after a miscarriage to a new town to make a new fresh start. Suddenly they get stalked by an old schoolfriend who just happens to live in the same new neighbourhood. However weird he might act and however obnoxious he might be in coming to see them uninvited over and over again he doesnt break any law perse. He is just somewhat weird and wants contact when the couple didnt ask for any friendship. The couple decide to bluntly tell the guy that they dont ever want to see him again. After that weird things start to happen around the house. That is the creepy part. The reason that creepy things start to happen around their new house is the clever part of the story. But at the end of the movie I felt a little disappointed. The great suspense kinda deflated at the end when I knew why everything happened the way it did. All in all certainly an entertaining creepy movie about stalking and about a lot more which I cant explain right now, because of spoilers. Story could have been better. And the drama could have been intenser. In the end it felt like a somewhat unbelievable story that spoiled the very good suspense of the first half of the movie. But then again this is often the case with movies that depend on the plot, it either is believable or it is somewhat cheesy cheap. This one is in between. 7 stars.

When you first start watching this film, you think that Simon is the leading man and Robyn is his leading lady and la de da they move back to Simon's hometown and this guy they run into, "Gordo the Weirdo" is your potential antagonist. And, depending on how you react to the events that occur throughout the course of the movie, you might still think that.I think this film does a great job of flipping traditional hero/anti-hero ideas and typical protagonist/antagonist roles. Joel Edgerton is a gem. I'd seen him in other things (The Great Gatsby, Star Wars Episodes II and III, Kinky Boots) but this role, and knowing that he wrote and directed, as well as starred, knocked my socks off. I'm glad he made this film, and I think it is extremely well done. If you like slow burn psychological thrillers with a whole lot of tension and cringey moments, this is a must-see.
