The Secret Sense

...efter att ha sett en film som Stir of Echoes som spelar mer på känsla och krypande skräck så får jag erkänna att jag gärna ser till att ha lite extra lampor tända...

...the always-undervalued Bacon is on top form as an ordinary man on the point of cracking up, while Erbe is one of the best housewife heroines in recent memory.

Kevin Bacon stars in one of his best performances, as a telephone lineman named Tom Witzky, who plays in a band, wants to break out of the routine of his life and succeeds all too successfully.

...it pulls you along with its characters towards a gold-plated, put-your-hands-over-your-eyes finale.

...it's still the kind of film that may give you pause the next time you walk into a dark room by yourself.
