The movie has a solid cast including several promising child actors. It's nicely shot in the salubrious suburbs of Melbourne and with a narrative which is cohesive and well paced. However, the main character seems to be a psychologically disturbed person only and no where creepy or sinister enough to create 'suspense'. Then the final denouement verges on melodrama, hardly the "thriller" of the publicity material. ( A minor point -- it's an Australian film with actors refreshingly free from obvious Australian accents.)
