When people I don't know are "excessively" polite with me, my antennae go up, and God help them from that moment on. While they're thinking "test, intimidate and subjugate", I'm thinking "kill if necessary, permanently disable at any rate." They're leaving the area educated.
@hatebreed1025 how does it suck? it'sa shot-for-shot remake of the Austrian version. and the guy re-made his own film for the american audience. however america does screw up some good horror movie remakes for our country. the grudge, shutter, the eye, the ring, need i go on?
The one glaring flaw in this film, and it is in the European version as well, is that the neighbor guy Fred just disappears? We find out that his family was being terrorized first, so why, when it is two adult men and one psycho kid, didn't he do something? Or at least go for help? It is just a REALLY big plot hole for me to deal with.
@roygeebivv Your kidding, right? I am referring to the first 25 seconds of this video (Part 2). Fred and Tim Roth are both just standing there while the psycho kid with the gloves is getting introduced. Why didn't Fred just start wailing on him, explain to Tim Roth what he and his partner had done to him and his family, and then get Tim Roth's help in beating the sh*t out of him? Fred just goes along with it and does nothing, and then vanishes.
@EzyGlider Probably Fred's daughter and wife are being held at knifepoint in their house. He might be able to kill the psycho kid together with Tim Roth, but surely he wouldn't see his wife alive. At this point he may think there is another way out of it. But when exactly the neighbors are killed, is never clear (psycho kid's shirt is stainless when he joins Naomi and psycho#2)
@roockowacko : If I were the husband, there would only be one of you left to do any threatening within 1 minute of me arriving at the house. I call it "zero tolerance" for things that look peculiar to my domestic situation. ;])
@EzyGlider If they're just neighbors, there's no way Fred would have been able to communicate what was going on without George thinking he was the psycho. They don't know each other well enough, and Paul is too good of an actor.
@EzyGlider : The film illustrates the unfortunate reality that for the most part, W.A.S.P. husbands and fathers really are just wimps and drones with no serious perception of life or military attitude concerning their place as protectors and defenders of their households. I'd put one of those golf drivers to good and serious use without hesitation, and never mind the possible legal consequences later.
@EzyGlider I would assume that when Paul was with Fred, the other (Peter) was holding the wife/kid hostage at their house which is why he didn't do anything. Same reason Anne doesn't do anything when the other neighbors visit at the dock.
@EzyGlider because im sure the other psycho kid was with fred's family, and if michael pitt didnt come back (because lets say fred tried to get tim roth to help him), he would have killed his family if michael pitt didnt come back. not really a plot hole.
Well it's not such a plot hole - I mean the other psycho was at home with the other guy's family - and Fred was probably well aware how troubled these kids were....so any attempt to struggle could have resulted in his family getting..well into trouble or worse.
As far as I remember correctly, the kid sees the corpse of Fred lying on the terace when hiding throughout the house and tells mum and dad later on after being caught by one of the "hardey boys"
I know exactly why. Paul probably told Fred that if anything happened to him, Peter would probably hurt Freds family. Fred wouldn't risk trying to overpower Paul.
@EzyGlider because the other kid had is wife and daughter and if anything happened he would of killed them. of course they kill them anyway. but no ones what they would do in that situation but even when you were in it. your mind would go to mush, all reason would go out the window.
i think naomi comes off uptight because she is doing the whole acting like she is acting thing (via mulholland dr.). her performance is very different from the original mother, while the other characters seem to be more similar to their original counterparts. i think naomi was probably cast in this role because of this style. it is striking to see how this acted "face" (the falsity of bourgeois presentation) completely deteriorates towards the end of the movie.
Not to dwell on this, but he doesn't actually seem genuine with his apology either. Maybe she had a bad feeling about the whole situation, I probably would have
God, the mother is such a freaking bitch. You ever wonder why they attacked them?
You can tell she's one when he asks for another set of eggs and she seems to sneer at him. And who keeps random cartons around? And how cleans spills up like that? And who.....god, this movie pisses me off....
@Knoxvicious She may have been a little short, but I don't think she was being a bitch. She's alone in the house, dude climbs through a hole in the fence in the backyard to come in, she bums him four eggs, he drops them, doesn't offer to clean them up himself, she tells him they'll have visitors who might eat eggs, he ignores and asks for 4 more, ruins her cell phone, then asks for the freaking egg carton. Just because she's not a complete pushover, does not make her a bitch
@morikahjo : PLUS: Do you know what it TAKES to disable a cell phone? A quick little dip in a sink isn't going to do it--most cell phones are built like miniature Hummers. When he did that, I'd take it as a gesture of intended hostility and head discreetly and firmly toward the golf bag.
@Knoxvicious They would have attacked them regardless, they are basically just going door to door terrorizing families. The scene where he walks through the gate with the neighbor shows they have been messing with them as well. The getting eggs thing is bullshit, did you not see the ending. They're just psychos provoking random people because they get a kick out of it.
Wow, they are a really affluent family - maybe that is why they are selected the gloved men in white? Some kind of envy vengence? Why are they so polite and charming? It is very annoying!! If anyone ever comes knocking at my door asking for eggs I will freak out!!
