House of Darkness

Good actors with nothing better to do. This movie sucked, I kept waiting for anything to happen. An hour and 19 mins into the movie it finally does, then it is over! Lame. Please do not watch this movie if you value your time. Not sure the point of even making a movie so unfulfilling. If you watch this one, be ready for long walking down the hall scenes. Also filled with plenty of boring conversation! Sad thing is I really like Long, albeit he was better fitted in comedy. I feel like this movie was below the bar for both of the leads in this movie. I guess if you enjoyed that movie Tusk he did then you will enjoy this one but for me it was just not my jam. I need more going on in a movie so I don't fall asleep!

I really enjoyed this actually! Justin Long and Kate Bosworth are some seriously good actors. They really put on a show! I understand there was a ton of conversation and it's pretty fair to say this was incredibly slow. I can understand that. But sometimes slow is good. This held pretty solid build up and while it was predictable I also considered this to be a classic long stretch of tales from the crypt type of story. So I really enjoyed the aspect of that and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen. Even if I knew there was clearly something off about Mina you still don't know exactly what it may be! The ending was great and a classic! The acting was also incredibly good as expected.

We just tried to watch this movie. Whoever wrote this dialog clearly has never interacted with real humans. 20 minutes in and Justin Long's character was so unlikeable with the ceaseless rambling that we gave up. There was zero action or anything compelling to hook someone in. This would probably be suited best as a low budget play instead of a movie. The preview to the film was intriguing but if you can't hook an audience in the first 20 min of an hour and a half film the entire script needs to be rewritten. Overall I will give this a one star for the reimagining premise but sadly cannot give it any more than that.

I haven't really seen a horror movie like this before. It's a small cast and dialog driven. The type that could be a stage play. The writing could have been a bit better, but the acting makes up for it. Would love to see more horror movies like this!

It's in a similar vein to Big Kahuna. Justin Long and Kate Bosworth do fantastic jobs as always. The other 2 actresses I didn't recognize, but they delivered as well. Suspense is steadily built in masterful ways that keep you ready for the shoe to drop at any moment, or possibly not at all!

I'm not sure why people seemed to dislike this so much. I almost wanted to give it a 10 just to counter the unreasonable hate, but in the end I had to grade it where it was.

A guy goes home with an attractive woman believing he's found himself a casual hookup.

What is this? OMG. I like Justin Long but I don't want to watch him rambling, at times incoherently, for nearly 90 minutes. There's so little dialogue that all you hear is him trying to carry the whole weight of the movie on his shoulders while the rest of the cast asked stupid, repetitive questions and stares at him. It was a bit ridiculous. The story is so obvious. You know where this is heading in the first five minutes. It's not very creative or interesting.

I made it through the whole film but this just turned out to be a flop for me. It's not something that I'm gonna be hyping up.
