Watch Orphan: First Kill Full Movie Online
After escaping from an Estonian psychiatric facility, Leena Klammer travels to America by impersonating Esther, the missing daughter of a wealthy family. But when her mask starts to slip, she is put against a mother who will protect her family from the murderous “child” at any cost.
A friend of mine practically dragged me to this movie, but I’m glad that he did. Obviously the actress was 10 or 11, in ORPHAN, but is 25 years old now. I was astonished that the same person was playing a prequel part. Does she look older? Sure, she does, but she’s still younger than what she is playing. If you can get past that, this is pretty cool. It works better, if you haven’t seen the original in a few years.
I noticed in some comments, people didn’t like the trickery being used, such as using a little girl stand in, or framing Esther at a lower height than the adults. In reality, Isabelle Fuhrman is 5′ 3″. But was made to look even smaller. I actually appreciated the creative effort.
I was pleasantly surprised to see Julia Stiles in this. I liked how she played her part. There are a couple of actors that really pour on the melodrama. Horror movies, like CREEPSHOW, for example, use melodrama to make the audience side against certain characters, so that poetic justice is even more delicious. I liked that who you root against in this movie isn’t who you were first expecting!
