Alone: Double, double, toil and trouble and lifelong psychological scarring.
Alone
This is from the directors of Shutter, which meant it took a certain amount of self-loathing masochism to open the file, knowing it would scare the shit out of me and haunt my dreams. This round? CONJOINED TWINS.
Pim has a problem: her reflection keeps smirking back at her.
She lost her sister when they were surgically separated (which isn't foreboding at all), and mysterious circumstances force her back to her creepy, empty childhood home (which is always asking for a good time).
She hears shadows and thumps when no one else is home... her mother, on her deathbed, is terrified of something no one else can see...
The dog barks at empty air...
OR IS IT?
This is Pim's boyfriend, who shoulders the terrible burden of looking hot and furrowing his brow and questioning his girlfriend's sanity. The irony is that he sees no problem with exploring dark hallways -- at night -- all alone -- so the whole sanity thing? I question his.
Pim knows she's not crazy. It makes perfect sense that her dead sister has eschewed the afterlife to lurk silently in closets! This is when her boyfriend hires a psychiatrist.
The psychiatrist explains the visions are only figments of her imagination, "like Mickey Mouse." You know, if Mickey Mouse hung himself from your ceiling fan and slowly revolved around your sleeping body.
Aww, family reunion!
IF YOU ISOLATE YOURSELF WHEN THE SPIRIT OF YOUR DEAD SISTER IS HAUNTING YOUR EVERY MOVE, YOU DESERVE TO DIE.
Don't watch this movie if you value sleep, sanity, or serenity, or are afraid of twins, mirrors, ghosts, closets, reflective surfaces, or the dark.
Oh, and don't get attached to the dog.
