The Home

The show is a little slow in the way it moves forward in its story, and it also tries to be a little too extreme for my tastes. I thought Davidson did amazing for branching out to a roll he wouldnt normally do. I really love the guy and will always enjoy watching him on screen. I did love the twists in this one, but I just found it to be a little too out there overall. I might have gave this a higher rating if it wasnt for the rooftop scene. It didnt need that when he could have given what was needed and was already doing. I just dont understand why they felt the need to do that.

First I think this is one of Pete Davidsons better performances. He portrays a young man upset with the world and torn up from the loss of his older brother.

The first half of the movie is slow but sets a decent atmosphere. Making you question if anything is really wrong or if old folks homes are just that creepy. Just as the movie was starting to lose me the second half kicks in and starts answering questions and hooking you.

Then that finale just goes bonkers. Great finish was worth the watch.

WARNING lots of eye stuff.

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.

I've never been a huge fan of Pete Davidson but I don't necessarily dislike him either - I just don't get it. To see him in a horror flick, though, had me intrigued. Overall, I didn't really find this "scary" but I liked it. I think what sums it up best for me, though, the ending is exactly what I expected from Pete Davidson (without going in with any such expectations). When it happened, I was just like, "oh, of course!"

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.
