Silent House

The atmosphere helps. Set in a mold/metaphor-infested lake house whose boarded-up windows keep it dark even as the sun shines outside, Silent House feels creepy even before the creepy stuff starts.

...a fun, worthwhile experience seeing how it all comes off, and witnessing a young star in the making.

...the greatest asset is Olsen herself...she has the open, guileless face of a child, and her mouth distends easily into the voiceless scream of a little girl trapped in the shadow of the bogeyman...

...is another one of those Scream at the Screen movies, in which you want to shout out advice to a character.
