If this was based on a true story, someone's life must've been awfully boring. I often walk around my house too but I don't have suspenseful music playing for no reason at all. I don't think a ring doorbell sounds like a traditional doorbell yet that's what they have on their house. And who in the hell buys a house without their spouse seeing it first? And apparently she's not on the deed to the house if she didn't know anything about it. The story writing was so boring, and the acting was like their first acting lesson.
Moving into a new house, a woman and her husband try to acclimate to the move after being surprised with the opportunity to own it and start making it into their home, but when she believes strange incidents around the house are making her crazy tries to figure out what's going on.
Overall, this was a fairly cheap and formulaic indie effort. The simplistic setup involving the couple's arrival at the house and trying to get acclimated to what's going on in their new property and the strange noises it makes provides a decent enough starting point to what's going on. The strange visions and flashes of someone walking by in the distance, objects moving by themselves, or the inability to determine the source of scratching noises heard throughout the house help to create the kind of atmosphere where the hint of the supernatural is unraveled rather nicely with a solid enough baseline to allow for the possibility that she's potentially going crazy just as much as there is a supernatural presence in the house. This indeterminate nature of what's going on in the house allows for a familiar if still somewhat enjoyable storyline to propel this along while also highlighting the big issue here in just how bland and dull this one is. The reliance on the same general style of setpieces intended to be scary, whether it's the strange noises within the house or the disappearing objects left around, it just grows tiresome taking up the running time without much deviation due to the whole experience equating to her finding something odd he brushes off and telling her to not worry about it until the next instance. This isn't interesting or scary and just continually produces boredom and disinterest in what's going on without any stakes or purpose in what's going on, especially once the culprit is known which adds an explanation for things but little else. Combined with a lack of scares or gore to liven things up, and it remains quite bland at times.
Rated Unrated/PG-13: Language and Violence.

Wow this utterly horrendous nothing happened in it!! Bad acting bad script she goes to bed and wakes up every day with her hair & makeup done same as when she gets out the shower honestly don't bother wasting your time watching this utter utter rubbish. I've wasted like an hour watching it waiting for anything to happen like scary or spooky she only goes out the house once to go to the chemist honestly it's just so bad oh and they have a ring door bell but never check it when it keeps going off
So I've wasted my time so you don't have to yours
Utter garbage and I mean garbage it's just bad bad.
Was Natalie Brienen's legs. As for everything else, it fell for me into that category of movie that could have been watched with or without volume and would have had the same impact either way. I have to admit I was resentful over how easy those two moved into a new home; every time I have moved it has been a nightmare.
The House on Laura Anne Dr. Is an ambitious indie thriller that has some genuinely tense and engaging moments, but also stumbles in its execution. The premise - a couple moving into a new home only to find something sinister lurking - is familiar, yet the filmmakers manage to create a few surprising twists that keep you watching. The low-budget production is noticeable in places, with uneven pacing and some stiff performances, but there are also creative choices in lighting and music that add to the unsettling atmosphere.
Overall, it's not a flawless film, but it shows what can be done with limited resources and plenty of imagination. If you can look past the rough edges, there's enough suspense and originality here to make it worth a late-night watch.
