While I am not a fan of Southern gothic set movies I had to watch SISTER SISTER because I set the goal for myself of finishing all the available movies of some actors with which nobody has ever done it, and Eric Stoltz is among them. And while I didn't loved it I just liked it.
Charlotte Bonnard lives in the Louisiana swamp zone along with her sister Lucy (Jennifer Jason Leigh) in a huge mansion that managed to transform in a hotel for tourists. Lucy, however, is tormented by nightmares and ghosts since she saw some years prior Charlotte killing a man and then throwing his body in the river. When one day arrives Matt Rutledge (Stoltz) Lucy is head over heels but Charlotte is worried because Etienne could be jealous, and he was a witness of the murder. It won't take long to find out that Matt is the brother of the murder victim that came in the exact same motel for some revenge, but he'll die in the same aforementioned way.
The acting was decent by all and the night scenes added a lot to the atmosphere. My problems with this were that in some moments towards the end the leads' decisions became confusing and the ending was very predictable. But overlooking this, it's still a decent little horror recommended especially to fans of the genre.
