    • Trivia
      Oddly, Charlie Heaton gets an "Introducing" credit, even though he had already been in several other movies before this one. The "Introducing" credit is normally reserved for first time film actors.
    • Goofs
      A child is declared missing after somehow finding his way to his former psychologist's home during freezing, winter weather. Not only aren't police overly concerned about the matter, when local news reports are shown, this is somehow not the major story.

      Stephen: You Gave Him... My Room! You're replacing me!

      Mary: No one could ever replace you. I promise. Please, just put the ax down, and we can talk about this.

    Watts Naomi doing in this dull thriller?
    "Shut In" is a very mundane, predictable and derivative thriller, so the only noteworthy thing to wonder is why a classy and multi-talented actress like Naomi Watts agreed to star in it. She appeared in horror movies/thrillers before - like "The Ring" or the remake of "Funny Games" - but that was quite a long time ago. The times and the competition must be rough in Hollywood these days, I guess. Sure, "Shut In" remains a watchable and competently made little film, but it isn't the least bit memorable and you honestly have to be pretty naïve NOT to see the principal plot-twist coming. From quite early in the film already, in fact. Watts is a great actress, and if there still are a few atmospheric and intense moments to enjoy, it's undeniably thanks to her performance. She just deserves better than to depict a so-called "damsel-in-distress".
