The film opens with a narrated disclaimer over footage of an opening coffin. The narrator explains that the film's climax is so terrifying that it may kill the viewer, and reassures the audience that if they die of fright while watching the film, they will receive a free burial service, and it closes on the casket which has a card inside reading "Reserved for You."[1]
Newlyweds Jenni (Peggy Webber) and Eric (John Hudson) move into Eric's palatial country home. Jenni is Eric's second wife; his first wife Marion died when she accidentally slipped and hit her head on the edge of a decorative pond on the estate. At the home they meet Eric's friends, the Reverend Snow (Russ Conway) and his wife (Toni Johnson), as well as Mickey (Alex Nicol), the developmentally disabled gardener. Eric privately mentions to the Snows that Jenni spent time in an asylum following the sudden death of both her parents, and Mrs. Snow reveals that Jenni is very wealthy.
Jenni is disturbed both by Mickey's belief that Marion's ghost wanders the estate and by Marion's self-portrait inside the house, which Jenni believes resembles her mother. When she begins to hear unexplained screaming noises and see skulls around her house, she believes that Marion is haunting her. Though Eric speculates to Jenni that Mickey, who was a childhood friend of Marion and thus dislikes Jenni, may be behind the trickery, Jenni worries that she is going insane. Eric then suggests to remove Marion's self-portrait from the home. Eric and Jenni take the painting outside and burn it. While they clean up the remains of the painting, a skull emerges from the ashes. While Jenni panics at the sight of the skull, Eric denies that the skull is there. Jenni faints and Eric withdraws the skull and hides it, revealing that he was responsible for the trickery all along in an effort to get hold of her wealth.
Believing she has finally lost her sanity, Jenni resolves to be committed. She tells Eric that the entire property will be meticulously searched for the skull as a last resort. Before Eric can retrieve it, Mickey secretly steals the skull and brings it to the Reverend, revealing Eric's plans. That night, Eric prepares to murder Jenni and stage it as a suicide. Jenni sees Marion's ghost in Mickey's greenhouse and flees back to the house. When she enters, Eric begins throttling her. The ghost then appears and chases Eric outside and about the property; it finally corners and attacks him, drowning him in the decorative pond.
After Jenni regains consciousness, the Snows arrive. Mrs. Snow comforts a hysterical Jenni and the Reverend discovers Eric's body in the pond. Some undisclosed time later, Jenni and the Snows depart from the house. Reverend Snow declares whether or not Marion's death was an accident will remain a mystery.
太精彩的黑帮外衣密室剧情，一口气在清晨看完，完全不觉有尿点。。老头情商智商太高，说的故事好比什么动作都强。Zoey Deutch与参演的电影都相当不错。（第1801部）
或许电影有很多瑕疵，最大的问题是，如此多的精妙设定，如果说没看过剧本，我是不信的，感叹老裁缝的智力超群，最后的反转着实让我大吃一惊，原来如此啊，怪不得前面一直在扮猪吃老虎，你才是BOSS中的大BOSS，我觉得给4星就是因为我被说服了！牛逼
还行吧。不过，这类角色对Mark Rylance爷爷级别的演员来说也就用了三成功力，没有考验价值啦！希望爷爷身体好好的，继续演下去~
这种单一场景的商业片，就像三件套西装的样式，人人都知道长什么样，不外乎人物进进出出，反转扮猪吃老虎，比的就是个手艺的精巧合身。这一点上，这片顶多算个合格的bespoke，没有Savile Row预期的惊艳感
true fact: the first bug the FBI ever planted in its history was planted in Chicago, Illinois, in 1956 inside a tailor shop.
剧情其实有刻意设计的地方，但结局还是不错的。
8/10.
好好看！我永远喜爱这样优雅的角色优雅的故事。一个裁缝店三个房间完成全部的故事，工整漂亮。这种片最考验表演和台词了，Rylance完成得太好了，被惊艳到。没有一处废笔，连开头cutter讲述剪裁的独白都是埋好的线，最后十分钟依然能制造惊喜给你。/另外Rylance在这里声音太好听了，这部的配乐也很不错。
全部情節都在一間裁縫鋪裏發生，劇情一次又一次的反轉太驚艷了，老裁縫躲在暗處挑起猜疑的火苗，所有人都在他設好的局中起舞，不費一兵一卒的掌控才是真正優秀的計謀，老爺子的演技真的太絕了。。。
ps：瑞奇好帥！
姜还是老的辣，行走江湖就是这样子吧，大隐隐于市，男主太帅了，最后走出裁缝店的背影，深藏功与名。
师徒情谊很感人。
好像真的是这样，就比如以前上学，每次考试快要写完一篇作文的时候总是会写错字，然后涂改。
总体3.5分，师徒间的感情有点太煽情了，有些深层的感情其实留白比较好。
幸好没看剧透，悬念、巧合环环相扣，我太喜欢这种短时间内在同一个空间发生的紧张故事了。简直可以说是演员们炫技的舞台，除了黑老大Roy差了点儿意思，每个角色的演出都很精彩，Francis超神。
蛮老派的一个电影。单一场景，几个角色，故事基本集中在服装店，依靠各种反转与对话推进剧情。这种小成本电影，还是好看的。
偏古典风格的推理悬疑，当然还有犯罪。
严重依赖剧本和演员演技的话剧电影，只有一个场景，一点也不枯燥，节奏飞快，转折不断，非常厉害了。8/10
有点小失望，说不上来期待什么，但总觉得会有所惊喜，于是期待到最后也没有等到想象中的惊喜，但仔细一想好像故事也称得上精彩，演技算得上精湛，或许是自己的胃口早已经被快节奏重反转的故事给喂刁了。不过作为单一场景下，只有几个演员飙戏构成的故事结构，还挺不错的，挺适合国内翻拍。
一直等着老头发大招，最后也发了，但是如果不发大招，会不会更好一点？不知道。室内舞台剧的编制，小空间里玩小反转，镜头顶在脸上考验演技，做得真是不错，没有野心就是最大的野心了。也算是本格的另一种玩法，总让我想起《利刃出鞘》。
