Fear
Nicole Walker always dreamed of being swept away by someone special — someone strong, sexy and sensitive who would care for her more than anything else in the world. David is all that and more: a modern-day knight who charms and seduces her, body and soul. But her perfect boyfriend is not all he seems to be. His sweet facade masks a savage, dark side that will soon transform Nicole's dream into a nightmare.
Critics Sentiment
Nicole impales David and Steven throws him from the window
David follows and kills Gary after seeing him with Nicole
The film recovers from its lowest point during Gary's murder to build strong momentum in the home invasion climax, gaining 3 points.
Fear starts strong with believable romance and family dynamics that reviewers appreciated, but dips into predictable thriller territory in the middle act. The film redeems itself with a widely praised climactic siege that delivers genuine suspense and satisfying resolution.
