Warning: Spoilers
Directorial debut for filmmakers Thomas and Charles Guard. THE UNINVITED is a nail-biting tale of horror of two sisters with different views of the recent past. Anna(Emily Browning)is returning to her lake-side home after a stay in a mental hospital trying to deal with her mother's death. Anna is a bit discouraged when finding that her father(David Stratham)is engaged to her mother's caretaker Rachel(Elizabeth Banks). Anna's sister Alex(Arielle Kebbel), who wants to appear more earthy, wants to convince dear old Dad that his lover is not what she appears to be. Anna even has suspicions about Rachel when her mother(Maya Massar)manifests herself from the beyond professing dark warnings. A once-peaceful home is rapidly becoming bitter and estranged as it crumbles into suspicious nightmares. Remember to take what mom says to heart. Chilling and thrilling as it satisfies. Also in the cast: Kevin McNulty, Jesse Moss and Matthew Bristol.
