-- There are roughly 3 types of rating on INHERITANCE (2017): 1 star, 6/7 stars, 9/10 stars. It's obvious that someone's apple is another one's poison. And some people in between regard it a slightly above average apple. No. This is not an apple to my eyes. Neither this a poison which kills 90 something minutes of my life. INHERITANCE is thin, slow, hardly nutritious or savory. Taste it once is enough, and I don't fancy a second bite;
-- You need a great deal of patience watching this movie;
-- The only interesting part is the beach house (and its view);
-- Turn away if you're looking for entertainment, or the minimum level of shock/scare fun of "normal" horror films.

There is no story here, only a collection of ideas, not one of which is ever fleshed out enough to be coherent. Waste of money, talent, and time. Where are the real storytellers anymore? This director has no clue what he's doing.

Boring. Constant shots of lead male grimacing. Over-use of cliche horror ambiance music with ZERO reason in horror or suspense. Fell asleep 4 times during this. Trust me....skip it. Dont listen to the good reviews. Indie this is. Good it is not.

Hands down the worst film I have ever seen in my entire life. I am absolutely gutted that I wasted 90 minutes of my life that I will never get back. There was no storyline whatsoever, I cannot tell you anything that happened in this film as nothing did. It was like watching a stranger in his life walking and sitting for 90 minutes. Nothing made sense, it was beyond slow and super boring and totally pointless. I have no idea what the film is about or what happened. Please do not watch. You will regret it.

Slow burn really isn't the word, because it was just so boring, and had no pay off. What even happened to the plot? The 3 sentence synopsis I read before deciding to watch it, is honestly the entire plot, there's nothing extra to add by watching it.
There's some kind of "second cousin" that the script didn't know what to do with really. The main character spends a lot of time silent, which adds to the dull.
The story isn't explained much, where is the horror in this film? I honestly don't get why it has that label, it's not a horror film. Honestly it was just really dull. I couldn't even tick spoilers, because honestly it's all in the synopsis of the film. There's no spoilers.

The worst movie I have ever seen. No value on any level. Terrible script, dialogue, acting, direction. I hope I forget everything about this movie. Don't waste your time.

This was the most BORING movie I have ever watched in my life......I was waiting and waiting for the suspense to happen but it didn't!!!
How dare they say "Horror" there was not one horror scene in that movie. This was a very very slow drama with no point at all.

This was one of the most senseless movies I have ever seen. It made absolutely no sense at all. It was impossible to figure out the point of the movie as it had none whatsoever. Ugh!! This movie was a total waste of ninety minutes of my precious time-time that I can never replace. Time lost on a pointless - senseless - dumb movie. I would suggest that you not waste your precious time watching it - if you do, you'll be sorry. I wonder why people would make a movie like this without getting input from others before sending it out to the masses. A total waste of money that could have been put to good use elsewhere.

Ryan Bowman (Chase Joliet) inherits beachfront property from the biological father he believed dead long ago. He moves in there with his pregnant Fiancé Isi (Sara Montez) and together they sell the house for several million dollars and live happily ever after, the end. No, you know that's not how it ends, not at all. Written and directed by Tyler Savage, INHERITANCE is a psychological thriller that sometimes verges into the supernatural, while keeping the mystery ambiguous enough to keep it from being easily labeled as a horror film.
The moment Ryan moves into the house, something happens to him and begins overtaking and reshaping reality around him. Ghastly visions repeat again and again, driving him to the edge of sanity. The deliberate pace, the flashes of sepia family photographs, the haunting score it all leads to a ghastly revelation involving Ryan's family and the clues to what is in store for him. The familiar tropes where an unassuming family move into a potentially haunted house which holds its influence over a family member and drives them to insanity have been seen from THE SHINING to THE AMITYVILLE HORROR however, INHERITANCE deals with something altogether different and perhaps even more primal. The secret is in the title itself, perhaps Ryan's true inheritance is not the property but something else cursing through his veins, something that makes him (and us) question if blood is what dictates our destiny.
Tyler Savage directs the hell out of this film. Brilliantly shot, composed and paced through careful editing, this is one hell of a calling card. Every shot is meant to sell cast and crew's skills as storytellers and ensure that their film careers are firmly cemented. This is not a B movie, it takes those elements and subverts them giving us something far more incisive. It's not "scary" because of ghosts or frights, it's scary because of what it says about the human condition and about what our family history may say of us.
INHERITANCE wants to unsettle you with ideas rather than jump scares and it succeeds.

*** REVIEW UPDATED 2019-12-30
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
3.6...? Seriously...? Pretty harsh for what in my lowly and wretched opinion is pretty good film. YES, it is ULTRA-slow. YES, it is completely ambiguous. But, that is the point... It fits the mood of the story.
What people seem to have forgotten is, at least what is important to me when I come here to read reviews, is, 'Is the movie made well?' And to me, the clear answer for this film is 'Yes' Moody, slow-building, LOTS of David Lynch influenced cinematography and atmosphere to spare. Sure, for a lot of people I understand that this kind of Horror just isn't their thing. I can see where to some a movie like this would certainly come across as B-O-R-I-N-G.
Just out of curiosity, I looked at a number of reviews on different sites for this movie, and most praise it fairly highly for it's slow-build subtlety and very keen and effective sense of dread, which is greatly increased by a powerfully effective soundtrack.
So, basically I feel that is the bottom line here. And, don't get me wrong, I frigg'n LOVE over-the-top Horror films like 'RE-ANIMATOR' and such. I think they are GREAT! But... I also really appreciate very serious, restrained, tension-building, dread-filled Horror where Atmosphere is everything (BTW, if you do happen to like this kind of film, I HIGHLY recommend the Psychological masterpiece 'SESSION 9')
This one definitely has a more Artsy approach which understandably will clearly not work for everyone. But, just to rate this well acted and extremely well photographed / edited / directed movie and give it a '1' or a '3' just doesn't make sense and doesn't really do anything to help others who like me really appreciate this kind of rare, quality, slow-burn Horror film. To me anyway FWIW, it certainly beats the living $hit outta most of the superficial and somewhat mindless Horror on cable these days...
This one truly engages your imagination...

Ok, this is not a horro movie. It's a put you to sleep, boring, no plot movie. Scenes just random with little dialog. No plausible reasons are given. But, they make sure to show several sex scenes, which give nothing to the story. The massive house, which only a few rooms are shown, does have a beautiful view. The creep next door neighbor gives no answers and is just there. I hope no paid money to see this. I watched it free on TUBI and I even turned it off. Save yourself some time and watch anything else. I have noticed several movies with the same name on IMDB. Another no name actor, bad plot, and absolutely no horror.

I love slower paced psychological thrillers with beautiful cinematography and this was the perfect movie. the character building was fantastic. very "shining"-esk, a real life true tragedy of epigenetics and how you can't seem to avoid it. the side characters were good, quarky, and keeps you on the edge of your seat! a truly good thriller needs no gore excess.

The film is a bit slow by American standards, but it's a story that unfolds at the surreal pace of a dream-a nightmare in fact. The acting, staging of each scene and the plot are all very solid. I'd expect great things to follow from both the cast and the director/writer.

I do NOT understand the bad ratings as I thought the film was quite good. The film has a big budget look it and is also well acted. A very good start for a first time director.

Inheritance is a beautifully filmed movie that is slow paced and and has plenty of atmosphere. Set in a beautiful seaside setting, it leisurely tells a dark story. But the problem is, it is a little too slow.
I like a movie that doesn't race through its story or crams it with gore and needless jump scares, but this is a little too slow.
The visuals a gorgeous and the acting is solid, but the the movie becomes a little too self indulgent and many will feel bored and impatient by the end.
The movie on the whole is still worth watching for the strong suburban gothic vibes, but there needed to be just a little more meant on the bone, so to speak.
It is a good movie, but with a tighter direction, it could have been a better one.
Also kudos to the great music that helped to heighten the sense of tenseness to the film.
