Synopsis: Who killed Alice Palmer? Just kidding...sort of...
This is a Fauxdoc-style film, covering the events surrounding the death of 16-year old Alice Palmer. After going missing (we presume she drowned) during a family trip, Alice's body is eventually discovered floating in the water. Once this happens, the movie jumps from one subplot to the next as it attempts to discover what happened to her. The ending may not be exactly what you'd expect.

What'd we think of Lake Mungo?
(Out of 5 stars)

    Synopsis 

    A young woman rents a room in a creepy old house. The landlord said there was only one other tenant besides himself, yet she keeps hearing crying coming from supposedly empty rooms and running into strange people in the halls. And then there are the strange nightmares she’s been having since moving in...

Next up, the long awaited sequel to the rebooted sequel to Halloween, Halloween Kills. That’s right, it’s time for more Jamie Lee Curtis and her distinguished natural grey hair kicking ass and taking names, along with her daughter, Judy Greer. I just love that those two are the leads again. Assuming the trailer hasn’t misled us. Guess we’ll finally find out.
