Well-to-do homemaker Ellen Wheeler feels the unpleasant buzz of her nerves fraying more and more with every passing moment. She claims to have seen a pair of red-splotched bodies in the ominous house next door. Or have her neurotic quirks become psychotic delusions? A gallery of men and women seem to Ellen to be behaving strangely. Her businessman husband and her best friend might even be having an affair. Her irascible neighbor works most efficiently with his gardening tools. Rounding out these suspects are an insincere shrink, a flighty chef, and a cynical cop. Whether these horrific circumstances and odd types are real or imagined, Ellen is in big trouble. [More]

Reviews for Night Watch
Incredibly effective use of subtitles, camerawork, focus, light, dark...weird...compelling and delicious.
While all may not be clear yet, there's certainly enough here to make you curious about the other two parts.
The familiar ideas are refreshed by the intriguing shift in culture and setting and the characters sketched in shades of gray.
