The Evil Next Door

Some things are lurking there, waiting for someone to ... come. Which is especially true in any horror movie of course, but also here. There is a meme with houses and their murderous/violent history ... and a family just joyfully moving into that house.

Now most of the time (like here), the new family has no clue and was never told what happened before they moved in ... so at least they keep up appearances that way. And since it is a horror movie, you know stuff will happen that will make you cringe. On the other hand, do you blame the dad for some of his reactions? Well maybe you do ... still this is rock solid for any fan of horror, well shot and the sound edit is top notch as well.

This was a fun watch, it wasn't scary necessarily but decently creepy. I'm usually not a fan of films in a foreign language, just don't like reading subtitles, but I was hooked from beginning to end with this.

Loved this movie! I was totally creeped out with the idea of this movie being based off of true events. I thought the acting was good as well as the horror scenes. There has been some crappy movies these days but this was pretty solid.

Pretty enjoyable Scandinavian horror. The sound built a gloomy atmosphere, a really well-made movie. I recommend.

I thoroughly read the reviews before deciding to give this title a try. My 29-year-old son loves horror. It is his favorite genre. My husband doesn't like it as much as I do, but neither of us are true horror fans. However, all three of us sat down to watch this movie, and we all made it to the end. My son often leaves early during a film. He stayed for the whole thing. Why? Because this film was interesting and engaging. It also had a satisfying ending. If you don't mind reading subtitles, I would recommend this film. It was a good story, had some creep-appeal, great cinematography, good acting. All-around decent flick. Seriously.
