A pointless waste of time

I'm quite a fan of these type of movies but this one was dreadful ...realism is ok and less is more and all that but you do need a storyline ! This consisted of a guy wondering around the house with some banging going on upstairs....basically that is it....then thankfully it ended !

Tense and strangely beautiful...

This is not a slasher gore fest... it's more subtle and poised than that. If you like a movie that will draw you in and let you feel the heavy, velvet atmosphere of a once grand home and then slowly lets the walls close in around you, then you should get creepy thrills from Muirhouse.

The tension builds inexorably as the house grinds away at Muirhouse's composure and sanity.

Wonderful acting from Iain McDonald and confident storytelling produced a film that goes beyond jump scares and large pools of blood.

Terrible

I shouldn't even waste my time with a review. Nothing happens. Guy walks around breathing heavy and a ghost turns off the lights and moves some furniture. Absolute disgrace to found footage films

Pretty good & a bit scary

I rather liked this film. It is a found footage movie, but it's done pretty well. Not all shaky and overly pretend amateur filming. The premise is good w the main character Phillip going to the haunted house awaiting his crew. And his time there gave me the willies and a few hold my breath moments. My only criticism is the ending. It doesn't really explain how Phillip got to where he was in the beginning. It is one of those movies that shows the outcome and then what led up to that outcome. I would totally recommend this for a free movie or rental. Not worth paying a lot for. But for the movies to watch w Prime or Netflix, it's one of the better that I've seen.

Slamming doors & bumps are scary but you need a plot, too

I've watched Muirhouse twice and both times I really enjoy the set-up and the house is great. Then you hear some bumps and doors opening by themselves, furniture moving...it's all VERY creepy.

But that's ALL that happens. He's downstairs and here's a thud upstairs. "Who's there?" he yells as he runs upstairs. Then a door slams downstairs. Then a piano pings. Then there's another thud.

And so on and on and on. It's like a pinball, bouncing off each room and noise, all the while panting and gasping for air. And that's it. Then it ends.

Not sure what they were thinking since it clearly has some scares....just no plot.
