What a terrific talent is the Australian Joel Edgerton. He is the writer, director and co-producer of the 'The Gift'. He acts in the film as well. And what a good film it is.
A couple has relocated to California and whilst shopping for household items the husband (Jason Bateman) is approached by a former schoolmate who he seems to scarcely remember. Unexpectedly the former schoolmate (Edgerton) sends the couple a housewarming gift which sets off a series of increasingly unnerving events.
This is a slow burn thriller with well disguised twists and turns.
★★★★
