This isn’t technically a horror movie, but I found it creepy and uncomfortable to watch. Jodie Foster is an adolescent girl who lives alone in her father’s home, keeping the secret about his absence with excuses to the landlady. She’s a typical 70’s latchkey kid, managing her own life, when Martin Sheen as a pedophile starts creeping around and tries to build a relationship with her. He is suspecting that she’s lying about her parents’ absences and is terrorizing her, but she has her own upper hand against him. It’s a really weird thriller, but is anchored by the great performances by Foster and Sheen, and just stood out as a interesting little movie with a very “of its time” premise.
