Also, it turns out that Steven has been faking his coma all along and has dastardly plans involving Mary, a bathtub, and the singing of “Hush, Little Baby.”ĭid I mention Shut In stars Oliver Platt as Dr. This might have something to do with the fact that Tom is still alive and living in the walls of her house. She’s also experiencing night terrors where little Tom is actually still in the house, living in the walls. The authorities start of a search and rescue for the young boy, but Mary thinks it’s too late. There’s a raging snowstorm outside, so Mary puts him up for the night, waking up later to find him running away into cold, dark night.

Mary feels bad for him, but is surprised when he manages to sneak back into her house. One is a little deaf boy named Tom who’s being sent away by his foster family after breaking another kid’s arm. In addition to taking care of Steven, Mary treats the troubled kids of her New England small town as a trained psychiatrist. Maybe you think he can’t hear you because he’s in a coma or a vegetative state, maybe he can. That would certainly work on me.Īlso, singing that “Hush, Little Baby” song to your 16 year-old stepson is a little creepy in its own right. Popeil ain’t gonna knock this kid out of a coma, Mary.

The movie was considered a masterpiece long before Al Gore and those Swedes invented the Internet. It’s Walt Disney’s Pinocchio! You don’t need the approval of the herd, Disney. I noticed a “Certified Fresh” sticker on the cover of the Blu-ray of Walt Disney’s Pinocchio. People put too much stock in Rotten Tomatoes scores anyway. Seems the critics weren’t too kind to this one, but your Curator of Schlock has different criteria for judging movies than your average cinema snob! For instance, Shut In stars Naomi Watts and that gangly guy from Stranger Things. Shut In currently ranks in at 8% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. How is any of this relevant? Well, I’m covering 2016’s Shut In from director Farren Blackburn.

That’s all you really need to read anyway. In my home state of New Jersey, they’re saying these are some of the worst snowstorms in the state’s history. Our Northern friends are getting buried in their houses. Lots of snowstorms assaulting the country right now. The Curator of Schlock #219 by Jeff Shuster
