Yes its another B horror flick and somewhat predictable, but I was drawn in by the camera work, effective use of sound and the unique choice of leading man. The supporting cast works well together, are entertaining, plus there are a few surprises as we move through the plot and home reno. My only question with so many of these haunted house movies is why don't these people ever get a home inspection before they buy?
The trailer really tricked me. It made me believe that this movie was going to be well written, well acted and scary. Man, was I terribly, horribly wrong. It was like watching a he worst episode of an HGTV show; the whole movie is comprised of a thin lipped man trying to renovate an ugly house. But the house keeps dripping snot and black Gak everywhere, and there is a neighbor that just won't leave him alone.
Seriously, this movie was bad. It wasn't even in the so bad, it was good category. It wasn't scary, it wasn't particularly well acted, and the story has been told much better dozens of times before. It was so poorly executed, that insane considers turning it off with 20 minutes left until the end. But I persevered, just to see the train wreck burn a little longer, and I wasn't disappointed.
One of the worst sacks of garbage I have ever had the displeasure of watching. Do not even watch it if it's free on cable. Erase this movie and those of this movie from your kind and never speak of it again.

The story follows CM Punk as he tries to renovate his strange century plus old house. Strange encounters occur, both within the home and with neighbors and townfolks, which brings me to my biggest issue. Punk/Don has several strange encounters in which the conversations make little sense. Per example, he meets a barkeep in a completely empty bar, who asks him if he is "queer", then states strait men don't do well in his home. The questions come out of no where and Punk/Don never follows up with inquiry like a normal human. The pastor neighbor also makes constant allusions to oddities, clearly indicating town members know something about the house, and yet nobody does what real humans would do and push for further questioning. This all culminates with a dubious explanation at the end that only leads to more questions and non sense. It almost feels like large parts of dialogue were cut from the film that would help it feel less choppy. Ultimately, I think Punk offered a good performance. Some of the imagery was creepy and interesting. I felt it could have been quite good if the story was ironed out.
Quite a disturbing film , dark and perverse in many ways. The story itself is nothing new but has deeply disturbing sexual connotations with man-milk emmanating from the wall power sockets/holes and wall switches that look like the female orifice as well as pulsating holes in walls and the old silicone wall effect akin to body horror greats like David Lynch and it does on the budget accomplish a rather gruesome and warped horror.
Acting is average and the story is very average having been done many times before but the sexual perversion and accompanying gooey special effects really will have you squirming, it has some quite shocking hammer-tastic female revenge action which definitely pushes this out of the bargain basement bin. Its not great but its not bad either but most assuredly it is quite disturbing so gets a fair average 5/10 from me!

I watched this movie based on the reviews from rotten tomatoes and the good reviews here....i made a mistake.
The movie was poorly acted and scripted. I don't care as much when a character makes dumb decisions. We live in a world where people make odd choices. The interactions were cheesy because of the script and terrible acting by the main lead. He was bad, really bad. Felt like he was doing a bad Bruce Campbell impersonation.
The story itself was ok. If you can look past the acting and bad dialogue, give it a shot.

- GoofsAround the 45 minute mark, Don is on the phone to Liz on a video call. He's clearly using the rear phone camera as he's showing her the freshly-decorated wall and smoothing it down, yet she sees Sarah walk across the room behind him, implying use of the front phone camera on the call.
