Anna's disturbing adventures begin when a house she sketched on paper eerily comes to life in a recurring dream. Bedridden with a fever, the imaginative and lonely child becomes obsessed with her drawing when she discovers that she can manipulate the course of her dream by adding to her picture. As Anna deliriously plunges deeper and deeper into her fantasy world, she becomes convinced that her drawings have begun to control and perhaps destroy her life. Her fever escalates, and the thin line between real and imagined blurs until Anna becomes trapped in a terror-filled nightmare, fearful that she won't escape alive.

Paperhouse Film Synopsis

A young girl lost in the loneliness and boredom of reality finds solace in an ill boy, whom she can visit in a surreal dream world that she drew in her school composition book.

YEEEEEES!I put in a request for this movie!!! I love it!!!!.Score: 5/5

Never Forgot It!This is a riveting, suspenseful movie that I saw long ago and never forgot. I looked for it over the years to no avail. It is not what you may think. All actors in this movie given a great performance. It is fantasy and suspense. It's like a strange, mind-trip down a Twilight Zone/ Rabbit Hole. I don't usually remember movies in fact can't think of the name of the movie I saw a week ago and this movie has recorded itself in my mind for 20 years. If you like Twilight Zone and Amazing Stories for instance, you will not be disappointed!.Score: 5/5

Finally!!!!I have been looking for this movie for years and years!!! I saw this in the theater and it has stayed in my mind all this time. The haunting imagery of that paperhouse. And when the movie gets dark....it gets dark. One scene has been burned into my mind....I can still see everything perfectly in my head. It scared the heck out of me in the theater. There is one two-word line that is said in the movie by a character....whenever it's dark and I can't see, I still say those two words in my head like in the movie and scare the heck out of me all over again. Thank you, thank you, thank you for FINALLY offering this movie..Score: 5/5

Pусский
Одиннадцатилетняя Анна плохо контактирует с окружающими и от того чувствует себя одинокой и никем не понятой. Однажды она обнаруживает, что нарисованный ей домик, начинает оживать в каждом ее сне, и что она способна влиять на ход собственных сновидений, дополняя свой рисунок. Поняв это Анна через несколько дней становится полноправной хозяйкой своей собственной страны, куда легко перенестись, стоит только закрыть глаза и заснуть. Позже девочка начинает замечать, что события реальные и «нарисованные» постепенно приходят в какое-то странное взаимодействие друг с другом. Рисунок начинает поглощать ее, контролировать ее мысли, и возможно, собирается ее погубить. Тонкая грань между реальностью и воображением размывается. Кошмар затягивает Анну в свою западню. Выберется ли она из своих страхов живой?

Mr. NiceDrama2011

Rhys Ifans (THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN) and Chloe Sevigny (BIG LOVE) star in the thrilling true life story of Howard Marks: School teacher and international drug smuggler who at one point controlled ten percent of the global trade in hashish. Adapted from Marks' autobiography by CANDYMAN and IMMORTAL BELOVED writer-director Bernard Rose, MR. NICE chronicles the rise and fall of one of the most fascinating and notorious figures in the international drug trade. Howard Marks' rise to the top of the drug trade was meteoric, the one-time physics student starting small with packets of hash hidden in the gear of traveling rock bands. In just a few years he had moved from grams and kilos to shipping literally tons of the stuff at a time, controlling massive shipments from Pakistan and Thailand to all corners of the world. The one time teacher built ties to the CIA, IRA, MI6, Mafia and more, claiming to operate under more than forty aliases worldwide. And then it all came crashing down around him. Rhys Ifans brings the flamboyant Marks to life in this sexy international thriller made all the more fascinating by the fact that every bit of it is true.
