    Terrible film!

    I watched this film on TV and was shocked at how awful it was. The acting was terrible, the storyline was worse, the henchmen were like something from a pantomime, and it was obvious all the way through exactly what was going to happen next. The music made it even worse and was really irritating all the way through. I looked it up on here because I thought it was a really old film, so was surprised to see it was only made in 2011. A real waste of some good actors, both female parts were played badly, very unconvincing. I almost felt like I wanted to hurry them along to get the film over with!!One of the worst films I have seen for a long time. Give it a wide berth!

    Don't waste you're time

    I'm going to say this, it was terrible. I don't like the way this movie was played out.

    REMAKE

    Am I the only that knows this is a REMAKE of "Baby Monitor: Sound of Fear" with Josie Bisset?? It was a Lifetime movie. The upload may still be on YouTube if you can find it.

    This may not be an official remake of that movie but the plot is pretty much the same! I like this modern version with the technology reference.

    Not Bad

    I don't understand why people give a movie like this a 1 out of 10. Sometimes I get the impression that they feel like they are movie critics writing for some big time newspaper. It was okay, it doesn't really bog down like some of these indie flicks that have dull, boring, ordinary scenes that are somehow supposed to be making some kind of momentous meaningful statement. The plot is fairly simple, but at least it moves along and you want to see how it turns out. They make the guy and the nanny out to be decent people, though, when he was the one cheating on his wife, and she was the one sleeping with a married man.

    The WORST Ever!!!

    I had the Misfortune of watching this DRECK last night. Luckily there was a Fast Forward button and my poor husband went to 20 minutes left, to 10, I couldn't even bear 5 more minutes of this Pure CRAP! Everyone involved with this movie should be Ashamed of themselves! There was NO chemistry whatsoever between the husband and wife, or mother and son...You really HATE every character like the Witchy Wife, Spineless Husband and Goody Two Shoes Nanny! Shame Shame Shame! AVOID AT ALL COSTS.. you'll never get that 90 minutes of your life back!
