Fear (1996)

SOLID THRILLER WITH A VERY GOOD CAST!
This is a little known film from the early 90's. The movie takes it's time to flesh out the character and to build some tension but, when it lets loose, it delivers! Mark Wahlberg gives a very chilling performance as a class 'A' nut job in this above average thriller. It smells like TV but, it's much better than that. Reese Witherspoon and the rest of the cast are very good as well. I rate it 3 1/2 stars.

LET ME IN THE F'ING HOUSE!
Reese Witherspoon plays Nicole Walker, the innocent daughter of Steven Walker (William L. Peterson) - a yuppy, workaholic architect, and Laura (Amy Brenneman), her neurotic, mother in law. One day NIcole and her slutty friend Margo (Alyssa Milano) decide to skip school and go to a trendy hangout. While there, they see two guys who they like, and more importantly they pick up a flyer for a party.

At the party is where Nicole meets David (Mark Wahlberg), the same guy that caught her eye from that morning. They are immediately smitten, and when the party breaks down into chaos, David is there to rescue Nicole; it's contemporary Romeo and Juliet.

David plays the sensitive guy perfectly, quickly gaining Nicole's trust and affection. It's an awkward romance, but he shows his rough edge rather early when he adjusts Nicole's watch to flout her parent's rules. It's only a matter of t ime before he shows is intentions and darkside, as he manages to deflower Nicole on a roller-coaster and show a psychotic jealousy while absolutely laying the beatdown on Nicole's male friend who dared to hug her. She obviously rebukes David, but eventually he wins back her trust. It's amazing how intimidating David is, because he only gets worse, destroying property, stealing, psychological abuse, self mutilation, and much, much worse.

From there the movie moves quickly to trouble, as a convincingly insane David begins to tear Nicole from her family and causes her father to truly hate him. Conflict rises to the breaking point and it becomes a battle for survival as David will do anything to have Nicole as his own, and her friends and family must fight for not only her heart and mind, but also their safety.

I highly recommend this movie for a psychological terror. Mark Wahlberg has never been better, and he elicits genuine fear and terror as a troubled David. Reese Witherspoon as at her young, cute phase before her chin grew to enormity, and Alyssa Milano plays the supporting lolita character very well.
