Written and directed by David Koepp is a new psychological thriller called You Should Have Left. Koepp is a legendary screenwriter of popular moneymakers: Jurassic Park, Mission: Impossible, and Panic Room. The thriller stars Kevin Bacon and Amanda Seyfried as a couple seeking a restful vacation. They pick an isolated location on the edge of the world, only to discover that secrets demand a reckoning and travel with you.

It is a terrifying, mind-twisting tale about a father who fights desperately to save his family from a beautiful home that refuses to let them leave. The story suggests Stephen King’s The Shining, where a family settles in at a private resort, isolated and with tons of history and ghosts. 

Theo Conroy, played by Bacon, is a successful middle-aged man whose marriage to his much younger actress wife, Susanna, played by Seyfried, is shredding at the seams, frayed by her secretiveness, his jealousy and the shadow of his past.

To repair their relationship, Theo and Susanna book a vacation at a stunning, remote modern home in the Welsh countryside for themselves and their six-year-old daughter, Ella, played by Avery Essex. What initially seems like a perfect retreat distorts into a complete nightmare when Theo’s grasp on reality unravels. He suspects that a sinister force within the house knows more than he or Susanna has revealed, even to each other.

The featurette tells us more about the movie and the sense that Bacon’s character is not to be trusted.
