The Home

One of the most common themes in horror movies is that things aren't what they seem. That gets taken to the extreme in "The Home", starring Pete Davidson as a young man having to do community service in a retirement facility, only to discover that there's more than meets the eye (and that last part isn't just a metaphor).

This is the second horror movie in which I've seen Davidson, after "Bodies Bodies Bodies". Both have political themes, the former having looked at people whose obsession with their online images leads to disastrous consequences. Not what you'd expect for a "Saturday Night Live" cast member, but I'd say that he's doing good work. Not a masterpiece, but worth seeing.

I hadn't seen a Pete davidson movie is a while and am glad I caught this one on the big screen. In The home Pete davidson is a foster child whose rough upbringing and bad "choices" land him in community service at a retirement home of sinister activity. The film covers some tough topics such as experimental drugs, mind control, media distraction, "vampiric" energy draining, and governmental projects. I'm happy to see Pete and the writers remind people or introduce those unknowing of the issues within our media, institutions, homes, and day to day life in which some sinister minds drain the unknowledged of energy and lead them down paths not ideally holy. I feel the movie was rough around the edges with a creative story making for a "expect the unexpected" ending. I could read where the movie was going but never could have guessed exactly what went down. Is a good watch while it's out and won't be out long only to disappear in between platforms leaving only those willing to buy it able to see.

I went to AMC Scream Unseen to watch a mystery horror movie, and The Home was that movie. I mostly know Pete Davidson from SNL, and his dating life, so it was interesting to see him in a horror movie. The first 2/3rds of the movie are paced very strange and has a lot of odd things that happen that make you question what is going on. The end third of the movie answers some of the questions, but this is what the true enjoyment of the movie came in for me. The end of this movie was insane, funny, brutal, and had some pretty great twists that FINALLY made this movie worth watching.

There is some random Horror thrown throughout the building half of this movie using body horror and a few scenes that make next to no sense.

A lot of this movie feels like a Thriller because of the surrounding mystery and tension that builds up until some of the reveals.

All in all, this movie is fine, and has some entertainment value, but I would recommend watching this film at home when it comes out on streaming and not making a trip out to spend the money in the theater.

The Home delivers a surprisingly gripping story with a plot twist that keeps you hooked until the end. The tension feels real, almost as if you're experiencing the events yourself. Pete Davidson stands out with a strong performance, and the entire cast brings the story to life with believable acting and great chemistry.

This movie keeps you engaged from start to finish and is definitely worth the watch. If you enjoy thrillers with unexpected turns and a sense of realism, The Home delivers on all fronts without overcomplicating the plot. Highly recommended.

Great build up. A bit slow, and I don't say that in a negative way; absolutely necessary for the way the story plays out. I believe the beginning of the movie, with its here and there surprises, just helps the epic ending. So great. Don't listen to those who say "it's boring." At no point is this movie boring. Horror buffs should and will appreciate this one for sure.
