Skip it—this 1993 thriller relies heavily on shock value and child actor Macaulay Culkin's creepy turn, but it hasn't aged well and feels more exploitative than genuinely terrifying. Unless you're specifically hunting for '90s horror nostalgia, there are way better psychological thrillers to scratch that itch tonight.
Plot
A young boy stays with his aunt and uncle, and befriends his cousin who's the same age. But his cousin begins showing increasing signs of psychotic behavior.
Director: Joseph Ruben
Cast: Macaulay Culkin, Elijah Wood, Wendy Crewson, David Morse, Daniel Hugh Kelly
