The Haunted House on Kirby Road

The first say twenty minutes weren't that bad at all. Somehow the director succeeded in picturing the boredom of blasé teens very well, like "chilling" together without a clue how to fill the time or what to talk about. See for instance how they morosely hung in their seats in the haunted house, before the things got rough. There's also a short but brilliant scene when they stop at a gas-station to buy condoms, and the guy at the counter insists on giving an educational demonstration, really hilarious.

But this movie set out to be a horror flick, and here it failed completely. The premise was far fetched to begin with (but hey, what horror-premise isn't?!), and the subsequent goings-on were ludicrous and totally unscary, not even amusing in a campy sort of way.

In short, a superfluous wannabe horrorflick, with in a few scenes the shimmering of real cinematographic potential.

Wow. That was awful.Wow. That was awful. Wow. That was awful. Wow. That was awful. Wow. That was awful. Wow. That was awful.

In my own opinion, this movie was not even good of a horror film. If it was up to me I would have given this movie one star, but I'll be lying if I said "I did not enjoyed all scenes" there were some that caught my attention. This movie had some comedic scenes that I enjoyed and got aroused at one particular scene. I enjoyed those those two parts theme of the movie. However, the horror, it was not even good. It's like the writer of this movie does not know anything about ghost/demonic lores and just wrote based on how they saw stuff through. I recommend, do not watch this movie, is just waste of time.

Six young friends watch a video of a haunted house on the internet. One of them recognizes the person in the video. They decide to check out the haunted house on Kirby Road.

It's a low budget Canadian indie horror. The setup is fine if rather plain. The condom scene has one hilarious laugh. It's a good start but it stagnates upon arriving at the house. It takes awhile for the horror to start. In fact, it's well into the second half. The actors are ready to scream but the house is not up to the challenge. It's an indie horror that fails to be scary.

This weird turd is some kind of a teen comedy with horror elements and the mess just doesn't work, mostly because everything is done so horribly badly. Script is childish, acting very poor, characters are annoying and you just wish them to die fast and finally there is the most irritating sound effect played all the time towards the end.

We have these 3 nerds that somehow just have 3 hot girls ready to hang with them for some reason. Now of course everybodys smoking weed but nobody is high, although it's a bit bad taste to have a "teen" driver under the influence. Now clearly we are to think them as underage, though the description for the movie calls them 20-somethings which seems more likely since the actors don't look like teens.

All other people we see are a store clerk that is a strange pervert (I didn't know buying condoms was so difficult in USA) and a crazy cop that serves no purpose to the movie what so ever.

Now we finally get to the haunted house where we endure some stupid clichés from every teen movie ever and then we get to enjoy the stupidest thing ever invented in movie history - the sound of heartbeat being played loud every other minute to tell you that something scary might happen. That sound makes you wanna puch the sound guy of this sad excuse of a movie.
