SPOILERS BELOW
Starting off as a relatively standard stalker thriller, it cleverly seeds small passive aggressions that snowball into a much more chilling premise - a pregnant wife finding out that her husband is a gaslighting psychopath. Unfortunately, it then pulls another twist that the seeming stalker *is* actually a psychopathic stalker and possibly raped Robyn while she was unconscious and may actually be the father of her newborn baby. It's a pretty nasty reveal in itself, but even worse is that with this the husband Simon becomes the protagonist. Robyn is suddenly nothing more than a nest for a cuckoo to plant its eggs in, doing nothing more for the rest of the film while Simon heroically speeds through traffic and chases after the stalker to avenge his cuckoldry.
Also, y'know, DNA tests exist.
Rating: Bad
