The Hand That Rocks the
Cradle (1992)
Directed by Curtis
Hanson this film stars Annabella Sciorra, Rebecca De Mornay, Matt
McCoy, Ernie Hudson and Julianne Moore. Following the suicide of her
husband and the loss of her unborn child a woman seeks revenge on the
family she blames for her misfortune.
Plot wise this is a
pretty average thriller that follows the sort of path you would
expect with an innocent family menaced by a crazy lady working as
their nanny. While the story is OK the antagonist is never really
creepy enough for this thriller to keep you on the edge of your seat.
Mostly the film is well made though Ernie Hudson's performance as a
mentally handicapped man is borderline at times.
3/5
