Has anybody else seen this. With Michelle Pfieffer & Harrison Ford.
Got it out and the tag line was
"The scariest Film you will see this year"
Only if you don`t watch any other films!!!

lol, I agree, only if you don't watch other films. Still though there were a few parts that made you jump, overall a decent movie.

Re:What Lies Beneath.
What was this film about? With those two leads you'd expect something quality, but I haven't actually heard of this film. Part-time cultural recluse, you see...

What Lies Beneath - spoilers!!
Ended up inadvertently watching a little of this last night - but then the film paused for the news to come on, and I was too tired to stay up to watch the film conclude later.
I saw up to where Michelle Pfieffer had become "possessed" and then knocked out of it, realising that Harrison Ford had actually had an affair with the girl before she died - and that the seat for all her anxieties had originated in a repressed memory of seeing them both "at it" via a mirror in their house.
But...what happened next? Was there anything in the film left to play?
Pretty surprised to see Harrison Ford in what seems an otherwise a pretty weak role.
And if anyone's familiar with the film - Pfieffer originally accuses the neighbour of killing his wife, but then she turns up - and it's the woman who played Eowyn from LOTR.

Re: What Lies Beneath - spoilers!!
Oh, that's one of the most infuriating flims I've ever seen. What were Pfeiffer and Ford doing mucking about with weak charecters and a paper-thin plot like this?
***Spoiler***
In answer to your question, Brian, the husband also killed that girl, and tries killing his wife too. Naturally he fails.

Strange little film, this. Didn't really like it that much. But it was interesting to see Harrison Ford playing a flat-out villain.

Re: What Lies Beneath - spoilers!!
I'm a huge Pfeiffer and Ford fan (say that three times quickly!) but I agree that this wasn't up to their usual standards. I did enjoy, like LittleMiss, the evil side of Ford. Normally he's in such heroic, god-like roles that it was a shock, but despite the poor script and weak plot, I can see him doing evil really well. Pfeiffer just seemed as if she was sleepwalking through the whole thing. Anyway, not a horrible movie but not a good one either.

I din't watch it last night, as I've seen it before and didn't feel any particular need to see it again So yeah... I agree, it was nice to see Ford in a villian role for a change, though Pfeiffer wasn't up to her usual standard
BTW Brian, I did notice the neighbour was Eowyn

Thanks for the replies - yeah, just a little predictable there.
