Storyline

Terror arrives at the one place we all feel safest in this taut psychological thriller starring Natasha Henstridge. When a wealthy woman and her stepson are targeted by a trio of expert thieves in their remote mansion, her only form of help comes from a call with a security systems specialist. But as the intruders become increasingly hostile and the connection wavers, will she trust him to be her eyes and navigate her to safety?

User Reviews

Unexpectedly Enjoyable

A really nice film that proved an unexpected joy to watch. I say "unexpected" because of some of the appalling reviews seen here on IMDb, which - in my view - this film does not deserve.

It has a nice pace and storyline that will keep most people entertained and thrilled right to the end. Granted, it may not win an Oscar but it is well made and well acted. Definitely worth a watch despite the negative reviews, some of which I'm sure were written by people who either haven't seen the film or simply haven't a clue about what's good and what isn't. Yes, they're entitled to their opinions but those who are giving this one star clearly do not know what they're on about.

The story is good, the title gives a clue as to what it's about; I won't add any spoilers.
