This was a creepy, atmospheric psychological thriller! It's somewhat slow-moving plot-wise, but the weirdness, the atmosphere, and the character interactions kept me engaged the entire time. Nicolas Cage and Robin Tunney play a couple who are looking to start over after the accidental death of their young daughter. So naturally they buy a run-down motel in a creepy town. Ha! While Cage's character Ray is exploring the motel, he discovers a crawl space that leads to a two-way mirror where he can see what is happening (e.g. prostitute sex) in one of the rooms. Does he call the cops? Does he dismantle it? Nope, not exactly. This is a weird little thriller with mystery, a little suspense, and some laughs (the kind of laughs where the people are so weird that you can't help but laugh). That's part of what makes it work though. Entertaining.
