Lar Doce Inferno

This movie is a hidden gem - one that I'll watch over and over again. Why? Because homicidal hot chicks are SO awesome - especially when they keep a tidy home and healthy family, too!

So, what's best about "Home Sweet Hell"? Everything really since I encountered nothing that failed to entertain me. You'll especially enjoy Katherine Heigl as Mona Champagne - the hottest murderous matriarch since "Serial Mom"! Patrick Wilson seems to play himself as Don Champagne - although I'm sure he's much more assertive in real life. Right?

I also liked to see Jim Belushi (Les) since I hadn't watched him in a while. He always leaves an impression, and Jordana Brewster is uber-hot and uber-naked as Dusty - oh, her performance is well done, too ;-)

Watch this movie for effect. Mrs. Champagne would definitely approve of this film's many fine qualities!

Home Sweet Hell is basically a dark comedy.

It's not a comedy per se because it has jokes or funny situations. It's comed-ish because of the very efficient performances of the 2 leads, Heigl and Wilson. That's what makes this movie tick in my opinion. The performances are exaggerated but they never become ridiculous. Even some weird and cartoon-ish grimaces delivered form Wilson.

The music helps the movie a lot. It gives the proper tone especially when the movie take its dark turn.

The direction is OK I guess but nothing to write home about it.

The plot soon becomes evident, but there are some twists even after the final credits start to roll.

Jim (not James!) Belushi is here too. Gives a professional performance in a rather small part.

Overall: A low budget violent dark comedy that will keep you entertain because of the performances and the chemistry of the 2 leads. Good but nothing spectacular.

The latest dark comedy, which has the two inconsistent actors in the lead. Well, I liked their performance, they competed each others to steal the show in their unique characters. I enjoyed watching it in parts, but frankly I am disappointed for this potential theme was misused for ineffectual narration.

Looks like inspired by 'Serial Mom'. When a little, strange but a happy family who are living by the storybook of their own was threatened by the dark side of the life, they are ready to jump into the hell to save it. They have ignited it, but the only concern is how to end it all for good.

Other than IMDb where it stands average, the movie was slammed very badly by the critics and moviegoers. I have seen even worse than this one. So to me it is an average except the end, otherwise below average. Yes, the conclusion was terrible, seems like they don't want a continuation. I mean they wanted to end it all here itself. It is a watchable, but simply not the best one.

6/10

Really good watch, would watch again and can recommend.

Sometimes, it's important to watch movies with actors of which you're less of a fan. It lowers your expectations and reminds you of their true, objective acting talent.

This is a very interesting watch on the real life symptoms and side effects of sociopathy and/or repressed psychopathy. It's the time of psych thriller that is scary because it could be happening to you in your own home. It doesn't mean you're stupid / not perceptive or they're super smart / devious. It just means that they're (at least) slightly more calculated than you.

There is a slew of metaphors in here from equals in a relationship to the upper class lording over their lessers, but there is a pivotal moment where they could have expressly made it about men vs women, and it (very obviously) did not turn down that road.

Really, if you like pysch thrillers, put this in your queue, I think you'll enjoy it.

This film tells the story of a furniture salesman who seems to have the perfect suburban life. He has an affair with an employee, and his life and his wife goes awfully wrong.

I thought "Home Sweet Hell" was a romantic comedy, but it turns out it's actually a new hybrid of romantic comedy slasher! Katherine Heigl plays an obsessional turns psychopathic wife, breaking her run as the new queen of romantic comedy. She looks so different from her other films, she conveys the stone cold and ruthless attitude required for the role. Patrick Wilson is great as a helpless husband. The whole film is quite funny, despite some gruesome scenes not typically in a romantic comedy. Overall, I enjoyed watching "Home Sweet Hell".
