  1. They both sound good. Breaking into someone's place, you are just asking to be killed though. lol

    1. That is what I think as well LOL We had a very sad case of a retired cop, a grandpa really, who had a break in and he shot the burglar and then died from heartattack after he was arrested for killing him.

  3. In my opinion, the second film is more promising because it involves a complex psychological element.

  4. These both look good today, but Intruder for the win! I hope they caught. If someone broke into your home, why lie about defending it? Sounds suspect to me!

    1. In my country you can still get jail for defending your home. We had a young dad who killed an intruder with a knife protecting his wife and three kids when the bastard broke into their flat at night and he still got jail even though the intruder had more than 300 crimes in his criminal record and was known as a problem in that part of the city. He was let out of the prison only after we organised riots.

  6. I agree, why must one cover up the death of an intruder? We’re allowed to protect our lives and homes with force if necessary. Sounds like there’s a lot more going on with the homeowners than meets the eye.

    1. The last episode will reveal the truth LOL I watched their DROWNING series, finished last week, and although the series was great, the end was so dissatisfying, left me angry.

    2. Well, that's disappointing to hear. I hate it when a series has a less than stellar ending. When they rush to wrap everything up too, it's just a mess and leaves the viewers wondering why they wasted so much time just to be let down at the end.

    3. Yes, the penultimate episode ends with the police telling her that the kid she found really is her missing son according to DNA tests and you leave it all happy and then in the final episode it turns out he really is not, so stupid.
