Is it for you?

Who'll love it
If you count yourself among anyone who likes to be kept guessing and people who like to watch through their fingers, this one's for you. A good one for a late-night scare. Fans of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? should feel right at home.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Tense from early on, at 1 hr 49 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.

Thriller about a psycho looking for revenge. Bronsky is a paraplegic because of an accident at a construction site that was partly due to the head architect, David Briand. Many years after the accident, Bronsky shows up at Briand's residence with his family and his trailer looking for assistance. He and his wife insinuate themselves into the household without revealing their true identity. They start to work for Briand and his wife Elaine as a gardener and a babysitter with the sole objective of wreaking havoc on their lives and avenging Bronsky's disabilities.
