The Haunting of the Murder House

If I'm unsure of if I should watch a horror movie, I pull it up on IMDB. It's usually a pretty safe bet if it's rated above a 6, and since this was a whopping 7.7 when I pulled it up, I thought, "wow, this is totally gonna be worth the $5 to rent it!!" I was robbed lol. In going back and reading the reviews in more depth, this movie is just the best of DBS's many movies. If you don't know who or what that is, the acting is TERRIBLE, the script hasn't been proofread, and even I could tell the cinematography was awful. It was like watching a film school project, and looking at it that way, they did a good job on this movie- the blood effects were decent and I'd give them a passing grade for the class. But having to pay for it on Amazon... don't waste your money!!

Unless you know DBS, then go for it, you'll apparently love it lol.

I should've known with the low amount of reviews and the standard big budget rating being around 5-6. It has some legitimately suspenseful moments but once any action actually starts the low quality really shows.

Like maybe that's not fair because they're competing with the industry and trying to make it, but the reviews are obviously paid for and that just sucks.

Holy bonkers Batman, maybe if they had put some of the money they used bribing people to leave FAKE stellar reviews for this steaming pile of fly attractors, they could've used it on acting lessons and the movie may have been a little more tolerable.

Ok let's break this sack of garbage down like we're trying to separate stuff for recycling, cause to he honest, that's the best thing that could happen to this a movie, a recycling center.

The script well it's just awful. Some of the things they say are so asinine and heck not even true statements to begin with! For example, the "leading lady" after their radios go on the fritz says, "Yeah the frequencies are down." This was in response to one of the other characters, cause I refuse to call these kids "actors" said he had tried to radio her but got no response. Ok so, radio frequency is well radio waves, and unlike electricity or wifi and the internet, they don't "go down" the only thing that makes radios or walky talkies if you will not work is when the frequency is being BLOCKED by something such a radio frequency jammer or distance or any large physical objects. Radio frequencies don't "go down" they are always there all the time traveling all through the air.

Next, I'm sure if you read any of the REAL reviews and not the fake fluff reviews posted by friends and family and possibly even paid/bribed people, is ATROCIOUS! I mean I've seen better acting from a 5 year old playing with action figures. The acting is in par with high school plays AT BEST! Cause I've even seen high school plays that had better acting than this movie. How these people got cast boggles my mind.

Back to another part of the script, the overall plot and story, again is pure unimaginative steaming garbage! Absolutely nothing original or well thought out. It's a complete rip off and copy of every other over night lock in paranormal investigation that goes awry movie that has been done and even done WAY better before it. If you wanna watch a good horror movie, in fact it was good enough to even garner a sequel, Close Ecounters is a way...WAY better horror movie of a paranormal investigative team filming for a show and getting locked in to a haunted location and everything that can go wrong does go wrong. Make sure you watch both of them too to get the full story. In fact, I think I've made my point and I'm gonna go watch that myself to try and get the nasty taste of this movie out of my psyche.

So, in closing I'm super grateful I didn't pay to watch this joke of a movie and it was free on Amazon and yet I still feel like I got hit over the head and mugged in a NYC alley. If you got duped by all the fake, false, garbage fluff reviews, I truly empathize for you. DO NOT SPEND MONEY TO WATCH THIS! You'll regret it if you do I PROMISE!

One of DBS' best movies to date. It features an Interesting concept, great cinematography and convincing acting. Well made and thoughtfully scripted. A must watch for horror fans!

Stay clear! Yet another film pumped up by bots or members of the casts giving false reviews so that we waste our time and money on this trash. I'm sick and tired of it. There are no more honest ratings or reviews on movies anymore. This will be my last time wasting money on movies , unless they are Blockbusters that have big names and are reviewed on a large scale. That is a shame. Bad apple constantly ruining the bunch. This is extremely low budget, almost college students turning in their final project. Acting non existent. Clowns are funny. Filming in someone's house. The tech they use for filming takes you in the way back machine to the 1990's. Please please ignore the bot reviews and stay clear of this house, no haunting going here.
