House of Evil

This film is truly awful.Terrible acting,after about ten minutes it becomes more annoying but you decide to give it the benefit of the doubt in the forlorn hope it will improve.Alas it dose not. The plot has been used in countless movies over the years and this is just another botched attempt of a worn out script. To add insult to injury we are informed it's inspired by true events.Maybe I'm being too critical and some people may enjoy this movie, but for me it was a load of schlock.

I'm not sure what it was about this movie. I watched it. From beginning to End. And I really couldn't tell you what happened. The story was so....devoid of story. And by the time it ended, I didn't care anymore.

This would be 5 going on story but give it an extra mark for the superb location. Really liked the creepy house in the countryside, the 70's vibe and visuals. No looking up the internet here to find out whats going on. Acting is fairly good, script and direction okay but the story is somewhat uneven. It rushes through too much in the last 10 minutes that maybe could have been developed a bit sooner. Overall a reasonable effort with a great location.

Even if you can get past the horrible acting (I mean really really horrible overacting), the plot is so overdone it will leave you bored to tears. This movie is in no way "homage" to the classic pieces of the genre. It was not nearly original or well directed enough to be considered such. Very much a failed attempt. Don't waste your time unless you want a laugh at the bad acting.

I endured through this movie hoping it would improve . I like the 70s vibe, location, and the concept but the script is poor. You can feel the actors trying to make it better which only results in overacting. Overall the production is poor and tries too hard to be scary throwing every horror cliche at it leaving it feeling contrived. Yes, I know it's not real but what makes a good horror movie is one that draws you into its story. This one did not.
