Movie Info

When filmmaker Cooper Tilson (Dennis Quaid) and his wife, Leah (Sharon Stone), tire of life in New York City, they buy a decrepit house in rural Cold Creek, N.Y., and move their family up there. However, soon the former owner, a menacing local named Dale Massie (Stephen Dorff), arrives. When Dale, who has just been released from prison, asks to be hired to help repair the house, the Tilsons agree. But soon Cooper starts believing that Dale may be even more dangerous than he seems.

Audience Reviews for Cold Creek Manor

    Boring... misleading title that confuses the audience. I honestly did not feel attached to any of the characters nor understand what I just watched

    I din't really enjoy this one as much as I thought I would...It was WAY too predictable...and the acting was..a little bad. Extremely slow-paced and way too long. It makes you feel like you were watching it for 5 days, just waiting for the ending. Skip it.

    It's painful to see Dennis Quaid act like bitch, pardon my language. If you think this is a horror movie, then you will be punk d like I did.
