“Blue-collar family man Tom Witzky (Kevin Bacon) scoffs at supernatural phenomena — until he lets his wife’s sister, Lisa (Illeana Douglas), put him into a hypnotic trance,” a description of the movie reads. “Upon waking, Tom realizes he has a psychic connection with his son, Jake (Zachary David Cope). He also has alarming hallucinations of a missing teenage neighbor named Samantha (Jennifer Morrison). Tom, convinced his visions will lead him to the girl, begins a desperate search that puts him into a life-threatening situation.”
Stir of Echoes was positively received among critics and fans, as the film has a 69 percent score on Rotten Tomatoes’ Tomatometer and a 70 percent on the Popcornmeter. That being said, it didn’t make a big splash at the box office at the time of its release, as the film grossed approximately $23.1 million globally.
A made-for-television sequel movie, titled Stir of Echoes: The Homecoming, premiered on the Sci Fi Channel in 2007. Directed by Ernie Barbarash, that movie stars Rob Lowe as Ted Cogan, while Marnie McPhail, Katya Gardner, Zachary Bennett, Ben Lewis, and Tatiana Maslany also star. While that movie doesn’t have a Tomatometer score, fans of the first movie were not too fond of The Homecoming, as it only has a 20 percent score on the Popcornmeter.
