The House on Laura Anne Dr.

This is a snooze fest. Literally NOTHING happens, you keep waiting on the action/any semblance of a plot to actually begin, but it never does.

I'm presuming the "based on a true story" is when a woman once called the police because she heard a weird noise in her attic. Yep, that's about the sum of this piece of nonsense.

The annoying music all the way through doesn't help, and the acting is drama school bad. The whiny voice of the female lead character made me want to murder her myself.

ZERO plot, zero characterisation, zero scares, zero story.

Do yourself a favour and skip this bore fest.

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.

What does Jay the husband do for a living? How can they up and move into a fully furnished house and not have to go shopping for clothing, food, etc. Upon arrival?? How could Ava the wife not have to sign the deed for the new house? How could Jay the husband buy a house without his wife suspecting anything amiss when money vanishes from their banking account? What is he alluding to when he says she's had a tough year? Why do we have to guess? When is a movie soundtrack not a movie soundtrack? Why does Ava not comprehend the term squatters?? Why no visuals of a moving vehicle or a law enforcement cruiser?? Why was this movie made? Lots of questions but on second thought .... YAWN ....

Please don't waste your time, money or energy. Go watch paint dry. Move along people. Nothing scary, thrilling, horrifying or supernatural here.

Literally nothing happens in this movie.

For hours, and it feels like days or years go past - nope still same scene.

Shame really as the cast were doing their best, with a storyline that simply didn't have a plot.

Haunted house that isnt haunted? Check Characters that you feel no affection for? Check Weird neighbour that isnt a neighbour? Check Anything that happens during the movie resembling a plot? No.... lets not bother.

The annoying synth music every ten minutes didn't cause any atmosphere, it simply became annoying very quickly and didn't go away.

Go watch people under the stairs or something, unless you want something on in the background while doing the ironing.

With the pace of this movie it will be heading straight to VHS, its that far behind the times!

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.
