Synopsis
The Tall Man (2012) is a mystery thriller from director Pascal Laugier you can watch online on iFILM. In the dying mining town of Cold Rock, children keep vanishing, and locals blame a shadowy figure from an old legend.
Nurse Julia, played by Jessica Biel, dismisses the folklore until the night she finds her son's bed empty and spots a dark shape carrying him out the door. She gives chase through the woods and along the highway, only to discover the truth runs far deeper than a simple abduction. Jodelle Ferland, Stephen McHattie and William B. Davis round out the cast.
Laugier, the French filmmaker behind the brutal Martyrs, builds the whole film around the rug-pull: twice it flips what you thought you knew. Less a creature feature than a grim puzzle about belief, desperation and what people will do to save a child. A Canada-France-US production. Stream The Tall Man (2012) online on iFILM.
