Description

Evil resides in an unexpected place in this gripping, suspense-filled drama. Macaulay Culkin stars as Henry, an angelic-looking boy who seems loving and loyal to his parents, sister and friends. Only his cousin Mark (Elijah Wood) sees what lurks behind Henry's smile - secret thoughts and a love of deadly games. But when Mark tries to warn Henry's family, they won't believe him, leaving the terrified youngster alone to battle his jealous, menacing cousin.

    I first saw this movie as a teenager and I thought it was great! Considering that Macaulay Culkin got his first claim to fame as an actor in the movie Home Alone, no one in the 90s would’ve expected him to take such a dark turn and play a genuinely evil kid in this movie. But he’s really good at playing the chilling title role, a family’s supposedly “good son” in this tense and terrifying thriller. Elijah Wood is terrific as Mark, the boy who must battle evil Henry alone when no one believes his warnings about how dangerous Henry is. A living nightmare for fans of really scary movies that are truly suspenseful! Bestselling author Todd Strasser wrote a great movie tie-in that should be made available as an iBook.

    Hello. My name is Mr. X, supporter of R-rated movies. This is one of the coolest, darkest, most terrifying movies ever. Excellent work! Kudos to the filmmakers, Macaulay Culkin, and Elijah Wood (he especially has a great voice as an adult).

    I just saw this movie a couple months ago it's now my favorite movie of all time anyone who hasn't watched it needs to. The cool thing about using Culkin in this film when he was a kid you don't even need to try to make him scary cause it already is scary when you see a kid killing and hurting people
  • This has nothing to do with the movie

    It was definitely worth watching, but the second trailer on iTunes is of the other “The Good Son” film. Just FYI, iTunes.
  • Wasn't that impressed with this one

    The idea wasn't bad neither was the cast but i just didn't like this movie. See this for yourself and make your own judgments.
  • Very Poorly Made

    Poor photography, poor sound, poor music, and—surprisingly—poor acting from Culkin. I was more than 40 minutes into the film before I cared about any of the characters. Wood's acting started off poor, but he got better as the film went on. The rest of the actors were unremarkable. Cool idea, poorly executed.
  • Love this movie
