This screening is presented by Dark Dream Cinema, a monthly film series devoted to the creeping undercurrents of the arthouse scene hosted by Michael Morlaine

“This is a movie that glides past cheap shock and chills the intelligence.” -Desson Howe, The Washington Post

Released in the immediate wake of The Sixth Sense, Stir of Echoes got all but lost in the mix, disappearing from screens even as its box office rival dominated the cultural conversation. Time, however, has proven its mettle, with each passing year cementing its status as a classic modern ghost story. Based on Richard Matheson’s 1958 novel, the film sets its haunted house trappings amidst the working-class backdrop of Chicago’s Logan Square, placing its tale of spectral communion within a genuine urban environment. With a cast of brilliant character actors led by Kevin Bacon, Kathryn Erbe, and Illeana Douglas, Stir of Echoes succeeds in employing the utmost realism to sell its tale of vicious everyday horrors.
