The Resident (2011)
4/10
really slow
3 September 2013
Dr. Juliet Devereau (Hilary Swank) is recently broken up with her boyfriend from Jack (Lee Pace) and rents a place from Max (Jeffrey Dean Morgan).

It's your basic lone-girl-in-big-bad-world horror. It's not at all scary and it is horribly boring. There is one major reveal midway through which made the last half very creepy but it really doesn't solve the problem of the incredibly slow pace. IMDb says the budget was $20M which really surprised me. It must be all in paying Hilary Swank because none of it shows up on the screen. It has the look of a B-level horror. The set is weak. It's a good cure for insomnia.
