Juan Antonio Bayona's 'The Orphanage' Screenshots...

This film again is delayed but it's really nice for an example of making a home being made unheimlich:




























I know there's a lot of screenshots here but as I'm still undecided as to what I want my final scene to consist of I just wanted to capture everything that I felt was effective in making me feel unsettled.  The story of this film is that a family move into a new home, an old orphanage the mother once lived in, and a lot of jumpy and pretty freaky things follow.  This was all about the family feeling unsafe in their own home and thus makes for very interesting research material.

  2. I agree! It's a really unnerving but also touching movie too! I forgot how much I liked it until I watched it recently :P
