What Lies Beneath (2000)

Cast: Harrison Ford (Dr. Norman Spencer), Michelle Pfeiffer (Claire Spencer), Diana Scarwid (Jody), Joe Morton (Dr. Drayton)
For complete cast info, see IMDb's What Lies Beneath page.

I really thought this was a very good movie. After talking to the friend I saw it with at the free preview (we got split up, so I ended up in the third row almost center, which is much closer than I'd like to be, and she ended up more than half-way back in the theatre), I think how much you enjoy What Lies Beneath may be in direct propotion to how close you are to the screen. Either that or the group of us that saw it up close all got involved together, which encouraged the rest to get into it... I'm not sure.

Either way, I thought this was a very well done thriller. I got involved with the characters, jumped on more than one occasion, and had my legs pulled up on my seat at a couple points. Those around me did the same and were jumping or screaming often in the movie. Apparently, from farther back, it's not as scary. So, when renting this movie, turn off all the lights, sit close to the TV, and curl up with someone you trust to protect you.

I love Harrison Ford and Michelle Pfeiffer and they were great in What Lies Beneath. I definitely recommend checking this one out.

Grade: B+
