Guys, what’s a great way to get close to a girl? How about a movie that will make her jump and squeeze your hand tight? Hopefully not too tight, right? The thriller, The Glass House, is a perfect movie if you’re looking to get close because this movie will definitely make you jump and think at the same time!

The movie didn’t get much acclaim in the theaters, but it is definitely a must see. The movie star is definitely LeeLee Sobieski (Here on Earth, Joy Ride), who plays the character Ruby. Ruby and her brother, played by Trevor Morgan (Jurassic Park 3, The Patriot), are orphaned when their parents die in a car accident. They move in with their new guardians Erin and Terry Glass, played by Diane Lane (Hard Ball, The Perfect Storm) and Stellan Skarsgard (Insomnia, Good Will Hunting). After they move in, Ruby starts to pick up on the many deceitful, creepy clues that lead her to figure out the Glass’s motive in their guardianship, and their possible connection in their parents death.

This movie will definitely get you thinking and keep you at the edge of your seat. So, if you’re looking for a creepy movie to share with friends or a girlfriend/boyfriend, this is definitely a movie to rent! You will probably be tempted to watch it more than once, so be sure to set time away from studying...which is very hard to do. Suuuure, right! So, go pop yourself some popcorn and rent this psychotic thriller!
