Home for Rent

This story was chock-FULL, let me tell you lol. If an average movie is like a paperback book, this one felt like a novel.

I think it edged on convoluted but never quite teetered over that line... it was just full of detail and extensive storytelling. At its pretty long run time of about 2 hours it somehow never really felt like it was dragging... yet still felt like the 2 hr length that it was.

Nothing about this story felt crazy original, yet they still managed to do it in a certain way that felt fresh and intriguing. The visuals were quite nice here and the acting was a high point for sure. The mom in particular did quite a nice job and I was very impressed with the little girls abilities.

This was a fun ride that was spooky, heartfelt and pretty captivating story wise. 6.5 rounding up to a 7, would recommend.

Home for Rent is a movie that comes out as fresh from the Asian cinema, one that is saturated with ghost stories. Don't get me wrong, this isn't far off either, but it does manage to provide a good plot, non linear execution and plenty of tension and mystery to it.

It was a nice surprise, I do declare myself a fan of this genre, the Asian market has its strong points, but lately nothing scary or convincing came out. This one isn't scary either but I do think it's intelligent, respects its viewer and is made with passion instead of a cash grab project.

Definitely recommended, it takes its time to build a proper story, to include the viewer, to make him question what's happening on the screen and also offers a good ending. So head to toes, a lovely experience here.

Cheers!

I opened the movie without any high expectations. But it wasn't bad. The gradually increasing tension, the effects, the explanation of the subject by everyone, etc. Were all very good. I also liked the acting. I loved the little girl.

When the family of 3 moves to their new house, they are thinking of renting out their old house. Although the father does not want to rent it at first. We understand the reason for this in the middle. Two strange women keep the house. While interesting events occur in their old home, strange events occur in the family's new home. The father of the family also exhibits mysterious behavior.

There is no sexuality or nudity in the movie.

I watched the movie in a theater and bought the ticket for about 2.5$, not knowing anything about it. I'm impressed with Thai and Indonesian horror movies, this one is not an exception.

I don't want to spoil the plot, so I'd say it has more than a possessed item storyline. The movie also tells the story following the sides of each of the two protagonists, explaining certain things and situations in detail.

It's an amazing movie overall and feels like a blockbuster - great CGI, editing and soundtrack, believable acting, etc.

It feels like the team and director respect the viewer, while I can't say it's something super new for the genre, it's definitely really well made and just feels quaility.

This one surprises me a lot. The production overall is just superb. The story grabs the attention of the audience all the way with such a clever and reasonable plot, great editing, talented cast, the sound effects and cg effects are excellent as a horror film. It has double twists and they work well. The main characters are performed by experienced actors and actresses and they all look believable in their roles. The child actresses did good job, too.

I think this is one good thrill ride. It keeps us wanting to know more how the mother would solve this problem with the tenants and her own husband. There are ghosts popping up here and there, and yes, they are scary. The dark ritual also looks strange and frightening.

Usually I don't give 9 rating to a horror film because it doesn't give any meaningful message. However, the sad but surprisingly touching and beautiful ending of the film made me decide to give higher rating. Surely, you won't be able to guess the ending before the climax scene. It shows that the writer of the story is smart and also has a heart.
