Dream House is a relatively familiar horror story. A man moves his family to an idyllic ‘dream house’ only to discover that it is the site of a few grisly murders.
Don’t you hate how that always happens? It’s his own fault though. The first thing you check anytime you move somewhere new, or stay in a hotel, or buy a car, or take a bath in a new tub, is whether or not a murder has taken place there.
Anyways, Daniel Craig is playing Will Atenton, a publisher who moves his family from the big city to enjoy a quiet life. After moving in, the family discovers that a woman and her children were murdered there, and the killer has not been apprehended, though the whole town thinks that the woman’s husband, who survived, must have killed them. As the family unravels the whole of the murderous history, they find that it may not be safe for them in the house, as the killer may have them in his sights.
Some say that all houses have memories. For one man, his home is the place he would kill to forget. A family unknowingly moves into a home where several grisly murders were committed...only to find themselves the killer's next target. Successful publisher Will Atenton (Craig) quit a job in New York City to relocate his wife, Libby (Weisz), and two girls to a quaint New England town. But as they settle into their new life, they discover their perfect home was the murder scene of a mother and her children. And the entire city believes it was at the hands of the husband who survived. When Will investigates the tragedy, his only lead comes from Ann Paterson (Watts), a neighbor who was close to the family that died. As Will and Ann piece together the disturbing puzzle, they discover that the story of the last man to leave Will'sdream house will be just as horrifying to the one who came next.
Thrilling, was the reaction when I got to see this trailer. Yes when you see the trailer you feel that it is a bit on the lines of the masterpiece from Martin Scorsese “Shutter Island”. But that’s what you don’t expect from the Oscar nominated director Jim Sheridan who gave us the very good movie In The Name of the Father and many others.
The movie has to have something more than Shutter Island. And if it does that then surely it will be a success. And Jim has great cast in his hands with Daniel Craig, Rachel Weisz, and Naomi Watts in the lead. The trailer really gives you a vibe that its going to be an exciting thriller movie. The Dream House comes to the theatres this year on September 30th.
Watch the trailer below and also read the Plot synopsis of this movie:
As we know all Houses have memories, some sweet some bitter and some of the haunted past. But when you shift in a new house you expect any of the above, but what you don’t expect that your past resurfaces from that home.
Dream House is the story of a man who soon after moving into his new seemingly idyllic new home, with his family. He learns that a brutal crime had been committed in their house and was done by the former residents of the dwelling. But what he doesn’t know is that he was the former resident of this house. What will he do when his dark past gets revealed?
First look at the intense thriller Dream House, starring Daniel Craig, Rachel Weisz, and Naomi Watts. The suspense film centers around one man who would kill to forget about his previous home.
Will Atenton (Craig) moves his family to the small New England town, but they soon discover that their perfect home is a murder scene of a mother and her children. Everyone believes it was the husband, who survived. Will starts to investigate and uncovers some very strange information.
His primary source of information is a neighbor, Ann Paterson (Watts) who knew the people shot. As they try and piece together the puzzle, they realize things are very different than they seem.
The trailer show a story wrought with inconsistencies and very strange occurrences. It looks like a psychological thriller at its best.
Dream House is set to hit theaters on September 30, 2011.
