Ils (2006)

 

Lucas and Clementine live peacefully in their isolated country house, but one night they wake up to strange noise... they're not alone... and a group of hooded assailants begin to terrorize them throughout the night.

Down-to-the-basics home invasion thriller certainly knows how to turn up the suspense and deliver the scares, but in the end it has all been a bubble of air.

Maltin**1/2: "Simple, tense, terse two-character thriller has a cold, cold heart, and rates kudos for scant grue. But the disappointing Big Reveal is just a variation on the same-old same-old, brandishing a dull and rusty cutting edge."
