Plot: 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). 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. He challenges Lisa to hypnotize him, and she plants in him a post-hypnotic suggestion to be more open-minded. 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. 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 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. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Kevin Bacon (Flatliners, Tremors, The River Wild, Death Sentence, etc.) is one of my favorite horror / thriller actors. He is very comfortable in creepier fare (hell, he got his start in the original Friday The 13th) like STIR OF ECHOES. Bacon plays a husband and father in Chicago, plunged into a supernatural puzzle after being hypnotized by his sister inlaw (Illeana Douglas). This man's ordinary life is shattered, forcing him to confront hidden, disturbing realities about his neighbors. SOE has equal amounts of mystery, suspense, and tragedy. The story is intelligent and the finalé is satisfying. Highly recommended...

Horror/Thriller done in the classic style
Added 5/13/2009

I already had this movie in standard DVD format and enjoyed it enough to buy it again in Blu-ray. It has become a family favorite. It had the right balance of suggestion, as opposed to buckets of blood, to make it a horror film in the classic style. Kevin Bacon id a great job in portraying a man haunted by the ghost of the girl who had been brutally murdered and stashed away to be forgotten.

Outstanding
Added 5/7/2009

This was a very entertaining bit of horror, even though it includes Kevin Bacon. If memory serves, it was released at the same time as the i see dead people movie, and was, largely overlooked, sadly. The movie starts out with a great scene that builds good dread that is generally maintained throughout the film. Some very creepy parts, and a few seriously startling ones as well. Highly recommended.
