The Astronaut's Wife
First screened in February 2004

Twitter Capsule: Supremely disquieting domestic mystery-drama-suspenser, all the more effective for its uninspiring packaging.

VOR:   Not sure I'd put this in a time capsule, but I got more jolts of slow-build dread, via weirder paths, than from The Sixth Sense or Stir of Echoes.
