The Intruder 2001 Horror Movie Review

Using a no-name cast outside of Natassia Kinski, who portrays one of many mysterious characters in this psychological mystery, “The Intruder” has some (but not complete) success in presenting a murder mystery about people that exist in parallel universes.


There’s a lot of mumbo jumbo and gobbledycook that goes on in this film noorish thriller, which revolves around a newly married couple and the husband’s deceased wife. The mystery begins to unfold almost from the beginning as strange events occur about every 10-15 minutes.


The film includes strong sexual content and some nudity that doesn’t add much to the overall tone. The characters seems more interdependent and interconnected than in most movies like this, as if this was the cast of “Friends” involved in a murder mystery with lots of European feel.


I did not find this an altogether satisfying film although I sat through the entire 90 minutes and never guessed how it would end. This is probably worth a spin in your DVD player if you like this kind of thing.
