Red Eye
“Fear takes flight.”
Director
Wes Craven
Screenplay
Carl Ellsworth, Dan Foos
Rachel McAdams stars as Lisa, a hotel manager on an overnight flight to Miami whose seatmate, played by Cillian Murphy, reveals himself mid-flight to be part of an assassination plot targeting a government official — and that her own father will be killed unless she helps him succeed. Director Wes Craven, working outside his usual horror wheelhouse, stages a tight, real-time thriller almost entirely confined to the claustrophobic space of an airplane cabin. Praised for its tense, well-constructed midair cat-and-mouse structure and strong lead performances, it remains a well-regarded entry in Craven's broader filmography.
