Penance Lane

Very low budget. Maybe if someone told me they made this "home movie" with no acting/filmmaking lessons I'd be impressed. Storyline was very basic and incomplete, like seriously wtf is going on. Horrible acting. It's just bad. Nice camera or whatever made it look -with a quick glance- like it should fit in with the high budget crowd.

Not a horror,below average acting,terrible story line

No way in the world should this be any higher than a 3. The acting is NOT worthy of a 6. That's just ridiculous.

...stayed for Scout Taylor Compton. If Scout is in a movie then it's worth at least a 5.

Having said that, that's as far as I can go for this one. The plot is weak and most of the acting is bland. It was more action than it was horror and that would be okay if the action was put together well but it wasn't.

The ending manages to pick up and improve just a little bit but it never really manages to find its footing and that's unfortunate because there is something decent hidden in this mess.

I didn't feel like it was a complete waste of time, but it didn't leave me satisfied either.

Oh my God, who thought up this tripe? First scene, gang breaks into house, it seems haunted. It starts off okay. Second scene a man comes into town to fix up the house, meets and helps a mum and daughter, the film's seems to be going okay. Strange things happen in the house, film seems to be getting slightly better. Another night in the house, you find out what caused the noise, film goes down hill at a hundred miles an hour. From there the story stays okay but the execution is dreadful, once the storyline comes into play, it was hard to watch because it was badly done. All in all, the film was cheaply made, usually that doesn't bother me but when it is acted by amateurs and it shows, it spoils the film. The only good thing were the mum and daughter were nice to look at.
