About this product

Product Information

After New Orleans hospice worker Caroline (Kate Hudson) answers a help wanted ad, she finds herself working as the live-in caretaker of Ben Devereaux (John Hurt), a stroke victim who has lost his ability to speak. Ben's wife, Violet (Gena Rowlands), presents Caroline with a skeleton key to open any door in the house--with the exception of one, which she claims she has never been able to open. But curiosity gets the best of her, and Caroline opens the door to find a wealth of materials representing the old house's history of hoodoo, an ancient form of folk magic. She soon discovers that the house harbors a dark secret--one that Violet knows more about than she first admits.Breaking her string of lighthearted romantic comedies, Kate Hudson gives a performance that proves she's more than capable of playing a feisty damsel in distress. Ehren Kruger's (THE RING) script gives her some physically demanding scenes, while providing the audience with a steady string of effective jolts culminating in a SIXTH SENSE-style twist that few are likely to see coming. Louisiana's swampy, heavy atmosphere is literally a character in the film, while Gena Rowlands, at age 75, astounds once again with one of her most surprising roles.

    Great thriller, good choice of characters and story.

    A great thriller to add to your collection of DVD's. Very happy with Seller, and excited to be able to have it my collection and now able to watch it when convenient and on my time.

  • See It Twice

    I saw this movie when it first came out, then recently watched it again on DVD. It's one of those movies that has levels you don't see the first time around. Until you know the ending a lot of things will go unnoticed during the first viewing, particularly in regards to Gena Rowlands character, Violet. The soundtrack is very good and also well worth owning, if for no other reason, for the awesome reworking of Johnny Farmer's (the blues musician who'd rather be known as a bulldozer driver) song, Death Letter, and Robert Johnson's Come On In My Kitchen. As if all of this weren't enough, Catherine Yronwode who, in my opinion, is THE authority on hoodoo/rootwork magic, served as consultant. If you have more than a passing interest in folk magic, and enjoy movies that are more suspense than ...

  • Suspenseful edge of your seat Movie

    Great Movie, it keeps you engaged and on the edge of your seat throughout. Lots of twists and turns throughout. I don’t like horror films so don’t think this is like that. It’s just suspenseful. You’ll pick up something new each time you watch it.
