The film -- which stars "Hellboy" actress Selma Blair, Joshua Close of "The Pacific," James D'Arcy and Rachel Miner -- follows the Hughes family as they escape their busy, upscale suburban life to spend time together in the countryside after a tragic accident. There, they face a man's violent obsession with perfection and the family is forced to extremes to survive.
