Directed by Rolf de Heer

Thriller

Overview

Steve is a man who has it all, a successful career, wonderful children, beautiful home and a loving wife. However, returning to his home after work on his birthday, he finds his house deserted and darkened with almost all the lightbulbs missing, all easy access outside cut off and a videotape waiting for him. Playing that tape, he watches a bizarre and grueling recording in which his wife explains her grievance with him, her reasons for disappearing with the children and her revenge for how he treated her in a way he would never forget.

Viewing Notes

I liked de Heer’s flick Bad Boy Bubby so I wanted to see what else he’s done. Alexandra’s is a much different film, but also a great premise and it’s executed fairly well. I would of liked for it to be a little more creepy but I love how the lead strikes back against her husband, even if some of it is a little unbelievable.
