![]() Stir of Echoes was based on a novel by Richard Matheson, whose work inspired such disparate films as Somewhere in Time and The Incredible Shrinking Man it was written and directed by David Koepp, who wrote the screenplays for Jurassic Park and Mission: Impossible. He also sees the spirit of a girl from the neighborhood who disappeared months ago - and Jake sees the spirit as well. Stir of Echoes is one of my favourite horror thrillers by far. The mystery is tough to unravel and Im sure most people didnt put the pieces together until the movie clarified what happened to the girl and who the culprits are. But the results aren't quite what Lisa or Tom expected Tom now senses an air of terrible dread throughout his house and is convinced that evil lurks just around the corner. The movie is ultra spooky and unpredictable. Both work well as the themes of love, jealousy, rage, are timeless. ![]() He challenges Lisa to hypnotize him, and she plants in him a post-hypnotic suggestion to be more open-minded. The novel was published in 1958 and is imbued with a sort of noirish quality evocative of that time whereas the movie features a contemporary setting. One night at a party, Tom gets into a lively discussion with his sister-in-law, Lisa (Illeana Douglas), who believes in psychic communication and the power of hypnosis. In this supernatural thriller, Tom Witzky (Kevin Bacon) is a fairly typical working-class guy living in Chicago with his wife Maggie (Kathryn Erbe) and his son Jake (Zachary David Cope).
