Orphan is the cult 2009 horror thriller that presents a unique contemporary twist on the evil killer child genre, from director Jaume Collet-Serra (House of Wax, Unknown) and screenwriter David Leslie Johnson (Red Riding Hood). The not always happily married couple John (Peter Sarsgaard, Shattered Glass) and Kate Coleman (Vera Farmiga, The Departed) want to compensate the loss of their third stillborn baby by adopting a child from Sister Abigail's orphanage. They promptly fall in love with the 9-year-old Esther, an incredibly polite and eloquent girl with a somewhat peculiar dressing style and Russian roots. They take her home and hope to raise the perfect family with her and the other two kids, Daniel and the deaf/mute little girl Maxine. Esther quickly sows fear and terror in school and around the playground, but the other children are too petrified to betray her. When Kate also accuses Esther of being a demonic child, her husband and therapist blame it on her alcoholic background and hallucinations. Meanwhile Esther's vile acts become increasingly horrific and more diabolical.moreless
