Now on Theathers: "P2"

"It's Christmas and Angela is working late before she leaves for her family's holiday party. When she gets down to the deserted parking garage, she discovers that her car won't start and she doesn't have a cell signal. Thomas the lonely security guard comes along and offers help. Little does Angela know he has been watching her for months. If Angela wants to live to see Christmas morning, she must find a way to escape P2."

This is the starting point for what looks as another great horror movie, from the team behind "The Hills Have Eyes" and the producer of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith".

The main actors are Rachel Nichols (from the TV series "Alias") as the young executive Angela Bridges, and Wes Bentley (from "American Beauty") as the (not so) friendly security guard who offers to help in her moment of trouble.

From there on, all the action takes place on that level P2 of that garage, combining terror, claustrophobia and extreme obsession.

Really makes us want to look behind our shoulders, next time we find ourselves in a dark and lonely parking lot.

What the critics have to say about P2:

Swift and stealthy. Taking the bus to work suddenly seems like a very good idea.
The New York Times, Jeannette Catsoulis
One of the scariest movies of the year! ‘P2' does to parking garages what ‘Psycho' did to taking a shower and what ‘Jaws' did to swimming in the ocean.
- FOX-TV, Shawn Edwards
GIRL-POWER revenge story not often seen on screen.
- US WEEKLY, Jeffrey Epstein
A thriller that actually thrills.
- AIN'T IT COOL NEWS, Moriarty
Slasher 'P2' finds new level of horror.
- CHICAGO SUN-TIMES, Roger Ebert
