Lie still … and sleep tight!
Well here’s a movie that probably will be long forgotten before it properly hits the lowest shelves of second-class rental stores… “Lie Still”, the debut film of Sean Hogan, simply hasn’t got anything to offer that makes it memorable. Gorehounds will drop out instantly, as the film doesn’t feature the slightest amount of action or excitement. Partly because there wasn’t enough budget for special effects but mainly because Hogan clearly intended to bring an old-fashioned atmospheric and story-driven ghost story. Fine by me! I encourage the revival of intelligent suspense-horror, but the problem here is that the script of “Lie Still” is as superficial and basic as can be. After the painful break-up with his girlfriend, unemployed and soft drugs addicted John Hare moves into a cheap room of an ancient house. He hopes to take a fresh start, but the house soon turns out to be a haunted place where the restless spirits of previous residents still dwell around. A premise like this immediately reminds you of popular films like “The Others” or “The Devil’s Backbone” and thus you begin to prepare yourself for a supernatural and totally unexpected twist in the end. The problem with “Lie Still” is that this particular twist never comes! Okay…so there are ghosts in the house and all this relates to the vicious history of the house’s first owner who’s buried in the backyard. That’s it? Where’s the climax? This movie ends exactly like it began: slow, uninteresting and anonymous. The only positive elements I can possibly mention are a handful of atmospheric sequences and only ONE ingenious finding (the people inside the television set). I picked up somewhere that the screenplay was written in only a couple of weeks (I believe that), but that it took another two years before the required budget was raised. What budget? I bet most of the money was spent on coffee & medication in order to keep cast and crew members awake during filming. The acting performances are fairly satisfying, though, and Hogan’s inexperienced approach of the genre occasionally does look charming.
