Called in the first scene... (SPOILERS!)

Omg the very first scene when Lee came on. I didn't even know who he was in relation to the main character...but in that first instant when he comes up the backyard porch at the house, I thought "AH, he did it." I knew he killed her.

Just some kinda cinematic clue (or his acting?) gave it away to me, I guess. Just the way he so easily cozied up to Igg, so trusted, yet to me seemed sleazy beneath that veneer...I was like yyyep this guy's the murderer. Haha. Then when they showed the flashback with the necklace and all, I was like well DUH now it's exceedingly obvious.

Anyway...Anyone else guess it from that first instant he was on screen? (Those who hadn't read the book obvs, like I haven't)

I didn't know there was a book, but yeah he seemed like a creep, but one that hides it well...a "Ted Bundy" if you will.

No, everyone was given little looks to try and implicate them. I had a suspicion when he was the only person who didn't see the horns and therefore wouldn't confess. I was certain as soon as we saw he had the necklace and it would be this that was shielding him and not his "morally clean soul"

So did I! David Morse has been a killer in a couple of films I've seen. Ha ha. I was surprised how many funny moments there were in this!

Well I didn't guess it that is for sure. Anyway a very interesting movie that I felt could have ended at different points in different ways. I don't know how to feel about the ending we were given. All in all a movie worth watching is all I can say.

I called Lee pretty quickly too. And I called Eric as being gay since he kept accusing the others, and wanting them to be naked. :)

My wife called the cancer though, in Mirrin.

Still a good movie in spite of some obvious choices.

Juno Temple in that see through dress.... OH... MY ...
