As husband and wife Daniel and Lacey Barret witness an escalating series of disturbing events involving their family, their safe and peaceful home quickly unravels.

The scare beats stayed so predictably on tempo without rushing or dragging the whole film, I think even Terence Fletcher would be impressed.

I really enjoyed the film but it descends into cliched and linear storytelling and just bored me by the end.
