The Curse of Hobbes House

The tagline to this film is "Don't wake the dead." Well, I want to know who did? I'm going to kick their ass. I don't like these zombies. I don't like these actors. I don't like green eggs and ham.

My title says it all I barely watched 30 minutes just absolutely unwatchable . Now that's all I have to say about that. Actors You will not care about or be able to follow and a convoluted story line . Bad production values a waste of time.

A zombie movie doesn't need a good story, but this one is pretty decent. The acting was believable and the location was fitting. The only thing wrong was that there wasn't enough excitement. So I would say It's worth watching, but don't expect anything great. The story segues along at the end to imply that this is only the beginning. Although movie was a bit weak, I see potential if they could de a better job on a sequel (at this point, I probably got some gasps from other less impressed reviewers). I gave it a 5 because I'm glad I saw it but probably won't see it again though.

I must admit that I was lured in by this 2020 movie's cover/poster. Sure, I hadn't even heard about the movie prior to sitting down to watch it. But the cover/poster had an appeal to it, and since it was a new horror movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I gave it a chance.

And while I managed to sit through the entire movie, right up to the disappointing ending, I have to admit that I was far from being anything even remotely close to entertained by the storyline told in "The Curse of Hobbes House".

The storyline and plot, as written by Wolf-Peter Arand and Juliane Block, just didn't offer anything interesting really. Everything in the movie had been done in other older movies, and done to a far better and more satisfactory result, I might add. So that left "The Curse of Hobbes House" as rather boring and uneventful movie.

The acting in the movie was adequate, although you shouldn't go about hoping for some grand Shakespearian performances here, as the script and dialogue just doesn't have that value to it.

For a horror movie then "The Curse of Hobbes House" was just unfathomably devoid of anything remotely scary. And truth be told, then fast, agile and nimble zombies with glowing blue light orbs for eyes just didn't cut it. It was more laughable than it was scary. It most certainly didn't do the trick for me.

While I managed to endure the movie to the bitter end, this is without the shadow of a doubt not a movie that I will ever return to watch again. Nor is it a movie that I can recommend that you spend your time, money or effort on.

My rating of "The Curse of Hobbes House" settles on a generous three out of ten stars.

The animation style at the beginning was really cool to tell the myth behind the curse of the house. It was a really cool way to fill the watches in on the background of the house.

The CGI was terrible. The acting was okay, but the scripting could have been better. The story behind everything was pretty cool overall. I think this film is slightly better than average. I enjoyed watching it, but I've seen much better, and I've seen much worse too.
