Case 39 Review

            We all know that college is expensive and for most of us, we don't work all that much during the school year.

            We are always looking for some cheap entertainment. Well here is a suggestion that will cost you $1.06 for DVDs and $1.59 for Blu-rays at your local Red Box rental location at Price Chopper in St. Johnsbury.

            This week's movie is Case 39, a horror/mystery/thriller film starring Renee Zellweger, (Chicago and Bridget Jones's Diary) who plays Emily Jenkins, a very busy and motivated social worker. What she expects to be a routine case of abusive parents turns into a situation that is truly out of this world.

            Upon saving the child from her parents Emily shortly learns by providing Lilith Sullivan a temporary home that this little girl is anything but innocent. Strange happenings start occurring along with the unexpected and mysterious deaths and illusions.

            The movie starts off giving the audience the background of Emily's line of work and some foreshadowing that is essential to the storyline. Within 20 minutes this movie will have you guessing what will happen next. You will even be startled by the parenting by Lilith's parents and will be wondering just what this little girl did or will do…

            If you like horror, mystery and thriller films, I would suggest this film. I give it 4 out of 5 stars. It has you screaming in the beginning and by the end you will have your blood and suspense fix for the night. So go to the St. Johnsbury Price Chopper, rent this at the Red Box, grab some microwavable popcorn, open a soda and have a nice movie night with your significant other, all under $5.
