The Intruder is mostly listless, scare-free nonsense, but an entertaining performance from Dennis Quaid manages to give the film a pulse, elevating this clichéd, implausible thriller into something watchable. When successful young married couple Annie and Scott (Meagan Good and Michael Ealy) buys their dream house, a lavish woodsy estate in the tranquility of Napa Valley, they think they have found the perfect home to take their next steps as a family. The price is $3.5M, but the current owner Charlie (Dennis Quaid – introduced shooting a deer right in front of them) likes them so knocks the price down to $3.3 and throws in his late wife’s tapestries. Annie and Scott are thrilled, but when Charlie shows up mowing the grass a couple of days after the move and works hard to make himself part of their lives, they begin to realize he may have hidden motivations beyond a quick sale.
