The horror thriller of 2022 See for me plays Skyler Davenport as Sophie, a blind former skier who sits in a luxurious mountain mansion. Ambushed by intruders trying to rob the house, Sophie is forced to rely on the help of Kelly (Jessica Parker Kennedy), an Army veteran who runs a smartphone app to maneuver and defeat her would-be killers. From our review,

Movies like Dancers in the dark, Julia’s eyes, The eye, flash, and In the dark all use blindness to make already vulnerable female leads even more vulnerable – not just to stalkers, predators, and supernatural threats, but also to self-doubt, marginalization, and dismissal from the people they were supposed to protect. But above all the new thriller See for me plays like a modern update of the 1967 classic Wait until it gets dark, starring Audrey Hepburn trying to outsmart manipulative criminal Alan Arkin after he broke into her home. See for me updates the home invasion formula with a few clever twists and an important relationship. But writers Adam Yorke and Tommy Gushue and director Randall Okita only push the formula forward before they run out of innovation.

Reed Birney (The hunt), Ann Dowd (The remains, hereditary), Jason Isaacs (The Patriot) and Martha Plimpton (Beautiful girl) Star in the 2021 drama Dimensions as two parents who, brought together by an unspeakable tragedy that tore their lives apart, agreed to meet to understand their mutual loss and move forward. Not exactly the premise that one would expect for the directorial debut of the actor and author Fran Kranz (Dollhouse, The hut in the forest), but a remarkable premise nonetheless. The trailer looks tense and devastating through and through, and each of the four main performances has garnered high praise.
