See the films the platforms disagree about most →In a quiet, isolated suburban neighborhood, a community lives in constant, unspoken fear of an unseen presence they refer to only as "the Lurker." The story follows a new family on the block who dismiss the local folklore as paranoia, until their own home becomes the focus of increasingly disturbing and personalized events. They discover that the Lurker doesn't merely watch; it learns, adapting its torment to exploit each person's deepest insecurities, turning their safe haven into a psychological prison where the threat comes from within the walls and within their own minds.
