DREAM HOUSE

So my christmas holiday is over, I went back to school today. We already have homework, which I should have done tonight, but instead I watched a film..I really fancied something scary tonight so I thought Dream House would be a good option.
Directed by Jim Sheridan and with Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz in the leads I thought it would be a great film.

A couple (Will and Libby) lives with their two little girls in a nice big house, he has just left his job to spend more time with his family and write a book. The house they have just bought used to belong to a family similar to them where the father one day shoots his wife and daughters. The neighbourhood is wary of the house and one night Will discovers that a group of teenagers is holding some form of seans in the basement.
The girls see a strange man creeping around the house, looking through the windows in the house and Will tries to catch whoever it is and he digs a bit deeper in what actually happened to the family who lived there before them. He gets no help from the ploice but he is eventually lead to a psychiatric hospital where he finds out something he probably wasnt prepared for.

I dont know if I just havent found any good horrorfilms lately or if I have just become braver at this age...
Because I didnt get scared...It was a very good film, I enjoyed it a lot, but I didnt hide behind a pillow like I would have done three years ago.
If you enjoy thrillers (but Im not sure this is classed as a thriller) with a psychotic twist I highly recommend this film. Here is the trailer, watch it!
