Coffin Rock (2009)
Today we have an Australian film set in a small fishing town. A couple has been trying to conceive a child for 15 months which brings a strain to their relationship and these problems are exacerbated by the arrival of a young man that stalks the wife.
There is plenty of good stuff in this thriller, the plot is really tough on the characters and there are some really terrible moments in the best way possible for this type of film. Following one drunken indiscretion the heroine finally becomes pregnant but when faced with the possibility that the stalker maybe her child's father she has to face some hard choices. Inevitably some parts of the plot are going to be predictable but the villain and events are dark enough to keep the tension going.
Some moments might be upsetting to those that are especially sensitive to violence against animals which you might want to bare in mind before watching.
4/5 a really good example of a thriller.
