Jeez! Therefore, the setup is simple. A lot of this has to do with framing the story through the paranoid perspective of the little boy David, exploiting the childlike sensibilities he brings to the audience as the key conduit. No clemency call here friends, despite it critical and commercial failure at the time, this flick is truly better than you remember it! Showing all 2 items. Approx. Soundtracks. When he’s as his best, there’s none finer. Haunted house film Noise in the Middle coming soon to VOD. Remade from the 1953 sci-fi B-movie of the same name, the intention was clear.
