House of Evil

Even if you can get past the horrible acting (I mean really really horrible overacting), the plot is so overdone it will leave you bored to tears. This movie is in no way "homage" to the classic pieces of the genre. It was not nearly original or well directed enough to be considered such. Very much a failed attempt. Don't waste your time unless you want a laugh at the bad acting.

Lots of bad acting, a histerical actress and a funny (trying to be scary) face from the actor! I just don't understand, if you have a short budget you can still do it with actors natural hair, this was one of the things that more bothered me, those super fake wigs make it ridiculous!

I usually do not waste my time writing reviews. There is some unnecessary bashing of this movie. I do watch a lot of movies. Most all of them. I enjoy a bad movie a lot. I think they are funny and entertaining. This movie is set in a beautiful home and piece of land. The antagonist is unique. The clothing and atmosphere are period correct. The acting and directing is fine. It is not perfect, but it is fine. There is also sufficient apprehension for this genre. If you haven't seen this one yet, save it until you have run out of other movies. Simply pay attention to what is happening and enjoy the scenery.

I endured through this movie hoping it would improve . I like the 70s vibe, location, and the concept but the script is poor. You can feel the actors trying to make it better which only results in overacting. Overall the production is poor and tries too hard to be scary throwing every horror cliche at it leaving it feeling contrived. Yes, I know it's not real but what makes a good horror movie is one that draws you into its story. This one did not.

This film is truly awful.Terrible acting,after about ten minutes it becomes more annoying but you decide to give it the benefit of the doubt in the forlorn hope it will improve.Alas it dose not. The plot has been used in countless movies over the years and this is just another botched attempt of a worn out script. To add insult to injury we are informed it's inspired by true events.Maybe I'm being too critical and some people may enjoy this movie, but for me it was a load of schlock.
