Krazy House

Been looking forward to this film for a while now. Read a few negative reviews but I always make my own mind up so gave it a watch.

Although I didn't hate the film. It was fun and daft.

The only major problem I personally had was that it just wasn't fast flowing enough. It kept dragging. Ever shot was 3 seconds longer than it needed to be. So it got rather boring rather quickly.

Maybe a different editor could've fixed that problem. Nick frost was OK considering he didn't have much to work with. Alicia Silverstone was her usual self whining and crying etc. Although there was one scene she was in at the start that I had to keep rewinding as it was hilarious (Kitchen worktop).

So I couldn't say it was bad or offensive unless you're easier offended of course... I just wish it had a dirrerent editor who could have made it flow more easily and quickly...

I wasn't sure what to expect from Krazy House, but since it starred Nick Frost, I was already sold on watching it. It took me a while to understand what was going on, but the movie presents a sitcom-style family with Nick Frost playing the dad, a religious homemaker. At some point, a group of Russian workers arrives, and things quickly start to spiral out of control.

While this movie has a vastly different plot and tone, the results reminded me of this year's Black Cab: an intriguing premise that ultimately fails to impress, with Nick Frost being the main reason to watch. However, I preferred Krazy House slightly more because it fully embraced its absurdity and seemed to have more fun with it.

Unfortunately, the movie never really captured my attention. With all the absurdity and chaos happening, I often felt overstimulated. Nothing felt impactful, which made it hard to connect with the characters, and as a result, I didn't care much about where the narrative was heading.

The comedy aspects didn't work too well for me, and the film was rarely funny. On the other hand, the gore was well-executed, and there's plenty of action to ensure you won't get bored. The acting was decent but occasionally subpar; however, each actor still managed to portray their character in a way that kept the scenario functional.

Overall, Krazy House is a wild (or "krazy") movie with a fun premise and some clever ideas, but the execution fell short for me. [4,8/10]

I entered the theatre knowing I was in for some kind of goofy and over the top fun while the other people here apparently weren't. Everyone in the theatre was having a good time. The film is aware of itself of being over the top, and it's a parody worth watching. Is it the best film ever, no of course not, but I'd definitely say it's worth the price of admission. I was never bored or continually looking at my phone waiting for the movie to be over, I was on the edge of my seat to see what would be next. If you find this overly violent, preachy, sarcastic then it's just not a film for you. Go watch it if you feel like watching something fun.

Now, I had never heard about the 2024 horror comedy "Krazy House" from writers and directors Steffen Haars and Flip Van der Kuil. But seeing it was a horror comedy that had Nick Frost in the leading role, of course I opted to watch the movie.

Writers Steffen Haars and Flip Van der Kuil delivered a script and storyline that utterly failed to entertain me. The movie is listed as a horror comedy, but there is very little comedy to be found anywhere, and as for the horror aspect, well it has been done and seen better in other movies. I found "Krazy House" to be a disappointing swing and a miss of a horror comedy.

Sure, the acting performances in the movie were fair, but this was hardly among the best of Nick Frost's performances, nor a particularly memorable one either. The only other familiar face on the cast list was Alicia Silverstone.

This movie was not my cup of tea, and it most certainly is not a movie that will ever finds it way back on my screen a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would recommend you to waste 89 minutes on watching.

My rating of "Krazy House" lands on a three out of ten stars.

Most certainly the worst movie I've seen in decades ; very boring , trying to bring across a very fuzzy blasphemic narrative without making any kind of point ... useless insults , useless violence and an endless stream of humiliating dialogues again without making any point ... definitely not worth a second of anybody's time. Probably the only reason why this movie has been made , is to deliberately insult certain religious groups and to generate unnecessary tensions and controversy surrounding this worthless movie which is why some people are going to see it and walk out of the cinema like 90 % of the people did who saw the movie with me today ...
