A TWISTED TOWN ON CAPE COD

Menley and her husband Adam have suffered a personal tragedy for which Menley feels responsible. They decide to take a summer home on Cape Code in order for Menley to relax with their new baby and regain her strength, Strange events begin to happen, people are not whom they seem and Menley can't trust anyone - not even her husband.

This movie is very close to the book. Obviously it doesn't have all the details. The scenery is great. My husband enjoyed it as he loves movies that have a hint of the supernatural. An engaging relaxing movie that you are sure to enjoy. August 3, 2008

Suspenseful thriller with a riveting plot

I watched this movie for the first time recently and was pleasantly surprised at how well-acted and well-plotted it was. Based upon Mary Higgin's Clark's novel of the same name, Remember Me stars Kelly McGillis as Menly, a well-known author who has also suffered a tragic loss - the death of her 2 year old son in an accident that she blames herself for. She suffers intense post-traumatic stress disorder and after two years is just trying to put her life back together and start afresh with her supportive husband and baby daughter. Menly's husband rents a beautiful Victorian house called Remember House on the New England coast which has a reputation for being haunted and carries a tragic history.

As the family settles in, Menly finds herself experiencing hallucinations that has to do with the accident such as hearing her son's voice as well as seeing visions of a 'ghost'. Menly also finds that her husband had a fling with a former girlfriend the past summer, a woman named Elaine who also happens to be the realtor that obtained the house for them. There are quite a few twists in this movie and those who love a good thriller will appreciate the well-developed plot. The thriller has a 'supernatural' bent which makes it all the more enjoyable. Kelly McGillis truly shines as the grieving mother and confused wife who tries to solve the mystery of Remember House whilst hanging on to her sanity. All in all, highly recommended! July 16, 2008
