The Intruders


A mysterious beast stalks innocent children in this thriller. In the 1980s, Juan  is a young boy with an active imagination and a talent for writing stories. However, he is being terrorized by a strange creature that lurks in his room late at night and doesn’t seem to have a face. Juan’s mother Luisa comes to believe demonic forces are at work and asks a local priest to help. However, it soon becomes obvious Satan is not the one to blame. Three decades later, John and Susanna are the parents of Mia, a 13-year-old girl. John is fiercely protective of his daughter, and when she’s attacked in her room late one night, he’s determined to find whoever or whatever is responsible. As it happens, Mia is being visited by Hollowface, a monster similar to the one who was stalking Juan, and he’s just as difficult to frighten away. Spanish director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo’s first directorial project after his commercial breakthrough with 28 Weeks Later, Intruders was an official selection at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival. Director: Juan Carlos Fresnadillo. Cast: Clive Owen, Carice van Houten, Daniel Brühl, Pilar López de Ayala, Kerry Fox. Rated: R. Time: 1:39.
