The House Next Door

From the opening credits I was skeptical about the movie. A lot of big name comedians that I enjoy but it didn't help their acting. The story line is horrible and if I were you I would save my money and time.

This is yet another horror hood comedy so you should know what to expect.

If you didn't know this means storylines from successful movies, hip hop in the soundtrack, rapper cameos and actors from the hood movie cannon.

This delivers in every one of those tropes.

The story of this one is lifted from The Burbs and Fright Night mainly, I noticed one review asking why the wife was even in this movie. That is obviously someone who didn't watch the entire movie as she is central to the story.

Its the typical type of humour you would expect from Mike Epps and Kat Williams which is why I stuck with this until the end.

Its certainly worth your time if you have seen most of the 90s hood movies as many of the in jokes and characters refer to these previous films.

This film certainly knows its target audience and doesn't pretend to pander to the mainstream.

I enjoyed it but then I got most if not all of the references to movies like Belly.

Some movies aren't for everyone....

Honestly watched this just for Trejo. At first the rest of the cast was charming but their obvious improv went on for far too long and just became tedious to watch. Skipped through most of it but from what I saw it seems like this was a "retelling" or mash-up of Fright Night and Underworld 3. Yawn.

Don't waste your time. Trashy, predictable, horrible. I like some parts though. The storyline is funny and makes you laugh but the wife's acting is not good. The movie is filmed in two houses and a backyard. They could've done better. A lot of great actors but it just felt flat.

Sort of funny. Storyline not all that great. The movie could do without the wife. Don't understand the point of her role. This is the kind of movie to watch at home. Not worth all the money to pay to sit in a theater and watch it. I would definitely not let my small children watch this. If you seen part 1, common sense would tell you that this is definitely not a movie suitable for kids.
