Synopsis:
A family relocates from the city to a dilapidated house in the country that was once a grand estate. As they begin to renovate the place they discover their new home harbors secrets, conceals a horrific past, and may not be free of the former inhabitants completely. 

Review:
A lack luster thriller that builds & builds to a climax that is a complete bust. First half is very slowly paced, a lot of boring dialogue & if your smart you can figure out exactly how the next hour will go. Stephen Dorff, kills his family, goes to jail, gets out & someone else now owns his house, so he tries his best to get them out of his house by trying to kill them. Saved you two hours. Yuck, even as a younger girl Kristen Stewart is disgusting. She has never been attractive nor has she ever been a good actress. She is garbage juice.
