Film Synopsis

The Cairn's (Sam Rockwell and Vera Farmiga) have it all: good marriage, nice apartment, a gifted nine-year-old son, Joshua, and a baby on the way. When their second child arrives, the young boy begins to resent his parents constant doting on his new sister. Suddenly, a series of tragic events fill the Cairn household with utter despair and unspeakable horror. The events leave the family questioning if it's all a series of eerie coincidences... or the calculated agenda of a sinister sibling with the perfect plan for revenge?

Our Take

"

Not since The Bad Seed has a child scared the bejesus out of us like little Jacob Kogan. And he’s no Satan’s spawn, either! Sam Rockwell and Vera Farmiga score big points trying to figure what the hell’s up with junior, and the tension is enough to make Linda Blair wretch all over her nightie.
