A House on the Bayou

Jessica (Angela Sarafyan) confronts her husband John Chambers (Paul Schneider) with evidence of his affair. He promises to end the affair and the couple takes their daughter Anna (Lia McHugh) to a vacation in the bayou. They had rented a mansion. They get invited to dinner with Isaac (Jacob Lofland) and Grandpappy (Doug Van Liew).

I like this movie. I like the revelations. I like Jessica. John surprised me in a good way although Schneider does over-act after the revelations. It seems like he's trying to earn his villainy. Anna is a weak dope. I get that she's a sheltered teen character but she would be more intriguing if she's smarter than that. Isaac is the best. He never stops being creepy but one can see that some teen girls would fall for that. More can be done with the room. That may be an issue with the budget or imagination. If budget is the case, I would show as little of the room as possible. Don't show John inside the room. All in all, I like the twists and turns and the movie's general creepiness.

Not necessarily in a bad way, a very odd movie, but kept my attention easily to the end. I liked it. This is probably the shortest review I have ever left... I found it worth a watch.

I love the way this movie accelerates everything with Issac and the horror that trembles along with him! A House on the Bayou has some reality drama acting that was definitely the downfall otherwise the movie is dope. For a huge horror fanatic this was just right if you don't take it to seriously.

Try this movie if you're sick of watching the same old slasher horror movies. This movie has a good storyline and a lot of twists that I didn't see coming.

I actually really enjoyed this. It has it's cheesy moments and some ridiculous overacting but it has a charm to it. The plot twists may get a bit out of hand but Jacob Lofland (who should be in a Children Of The Corn movie) is menacing enough to keep things ticking over. One of Blumhouses better recent efforts.
