Tem Alguém na sua Casa

A killer goes after people who have dark secrets, I remember an episode of Supernatural(2005-2020) had a similar premise.

It's not all terrible, but would not put in the classics section with Scream, at least in that movie the killer had a fearful presence that makes you feel like you not safe anywhere, but with this film I just didn't have that feeling with this killer, unlike Ghost face and Michael Myers.

There are some kills that are alright but not clever. Some of the characters are okay, but had tough time getting invested in some of them. All in all a medium thriller at best. If you liked it more and can sit through it more times, I'm glad you can, but not me.

It's a decent High School horror, where someone is printing 3D masks of their victims and revealing their dark secrets through their death. But the title doesn't fit what happens...at all.

Unlike some horror/thriller movies that have a slow build up to the first murder, this went for the jugular from the offset.

Sydney Park played her role well as one of the main characters.

You're not going to see anything that hasn't been done a hundred times, nothing unique and after 35 minutes I had an incline as to who the culprit was.

There are scenes that were unbelievable and not wouldn't, but couldn't have happened without the character waking up. Most notably when Sydney put a chair behind her door. Don't want to give anything away. The build up to the action was minimal and predictable. There wasn't any jump scares and I would class this to be more of a thriller than horror.

If you want to pass a bit of time away with a film that you can have on in the background and not miss anything, but still watchable, then I'd give it a go. It's not the worst film I've ever seen.

Disappointed. The first 25/30 minutes are good and I thought this would be something cool and a good slasher. Unfortunately, from there it only gets worse.

The killer reveal was a bit obvious - well, at least I found out very early and I'm not usually the guy who can see plot twists coming - and I can't even understand the reasons for some victims. It doesn't make much sense even if it was obvious. The last act seems incredibly rushed with no tension at all and some characters are never developed at all.

Good acting in general, good final girl, cool masks and some interesting deaths save this from being really bad, but it's not enough to make this a good film.

The latest entry in the long list of disposable films in Netflix canon, There's Someone Inside Your House is a run-of-the-mill slasher featuring characters one never grows to care about, motivations & purpose that have no footing, and killings that are delightfully grisly & gleeful. The film starts on a promising note but the interest in the premise fizzles out just as quick.

Directed by Patrick Brice (Creep & Creep 2), the script suffers from a myriad of issues, for its characters are poorly sketched, the drama involving them is bland throughout and dialogues are terrible. The narrative borrows elements from other classics of the genre(s) yet fails to do anything productive with that. The story just doesn't have the required emotional weight to it.

Not only is it apparent that Brice didn't write the film but it is also unlikely that he bothered to employ his cinematic skillset on this straightforward teen slasher offering. It hardly reeks of a foreboding atmosphere, the tension & suspense leaves the room just as soon as the build-up, the teen drama is never for once compelling, and the performances from its cast is also meh.

Overall, There's Someone Inside Your House not only fails to bring anything new or refreshing to the genre but is also lacking the goods to deliver a fun, thrilling & entertaining delight. All it has got going for it are a few graphic kills but that's simply not enough to steer the story past the finish line when there is no one to root for and the shortcomings are so glaring. All in all, a forgettable fare.
