She was too pregnant to get out the window.

Yea but why hide in the bathroom anyway?! The guy moved slow, so why not go for the car?! No one grabbed weapons, the mistress stayed by the house to call the police, the husband stood in the middle of the room looking towards the door knowing that he was in the house and the pregnant girl stayed in the bathroom when she could hear the guy attacking her husband. On top of all that she didn't leave the house when she spotted the camera by the front door. Hell, I wouldn't even take the house if the landlord's appearance and smell frightened/disgusted me like that.

I completely agree. At least run to save yourself and your baby if you hear (the thing that happened to her husband, sorry idk how to do the spoiler on my phone.) I get that she's pregnant but all of the people involved are stupid. He has all the keys for every room in the house, but still go hide in the bathroom!

Yea it was so stupid that it somewhat ruined the film. I was really into it and creeped out until the point when the mistress was clobbered and thrown into the dungeon. The mistress was stupid for going into their home in the first place while they were gone. Regardless of the Slumlord, what did she hope to accomplish? The man isn't leaving his wife for you. Did that deadbeat husband actually give her a key? She's not above making a key without him knowing, but then he was so stupid that i could fathom him doing something like that.

And yea, the husband screaming "Claire! He's in the house!" and then shutting the door and locking it. Oookay? So you've shut yourself in with him in the dark. And the mistress took 10 minutes just to make it from the bathroom window to the pool and attempt to call 911. Lol!

I wanted the husband and mistress to die. Not because they were cheaters, but they were so annoying. He kept treating his wife and his side piece like they were stupid. Such a bad liar. And when the mistress got all desperate and panic-y it was time for her to go as well. I was rooting for the wife only because she was pregnant. Now Mayonnaise Breath is going to groom the kid into some sort of smelly, waddling, bacon burger eating acolyte.

The bathroom scene made the movie worst xD

When Gerald went out to chase Hannah, she could clearly hear Hanna screaming outside, PERFECT timing for her to leave the bathroom and run to a neighbor even if she was pregnant. Drowning someone should take about, I will say maybe 30 sec of struggling and maybe a minute or two with submerging to drown Hannah, Claire had plenty of time for her to get out and seek for help.

Yeah, it kinda fell apart towards the end which is too bad since it was really good up until that point.

Had they simply stayed together in a room and blocked all entry points except for one, they could have easily took him out. All of this running stuff is how you get killed. THINK people, THINK. You funnel your opponent through so you control the action. Even in the bathroom, break the mirror, grab shard of glass, get to slashing or stabbing. But you guys want to run. Good luck with that. Clearly self preservation is not high up on your priorities.

Don't look for realism on a SCREEN.

A bright light can hollow the deepest of nothingness.
