‘Intruders' an unnerving if unremarkable chiller
Screenwriters Nicolas Casariego and Jaime Marques tap into this universal fear in Intruders to produce an efficient horror thriller about two children, worlds apart, who are haunted by the same gnarly-fingered bogeyman that rips off the faces of unsuspecting tykes as they sleep.
Spanish director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, who spilt copious blood at the helm of zombie sequel ‘28 Weeks Later’, cranks up the tension in the chilling opening frames, set in a Madrid apartment block.
