The Home

There's no tension building here. Right from the start, the filmmakers seem eager to show they've watched a graveyard of B-class horror flicks and want to flaunt their editing skills, sound design, and repulsive visuals-all at once. Naturally, it doesn't work. We aren't scared. We're laughing, cringing, and rolling our eyes while waiting for this torture to end.

Pete Davidson helps a bit to this concept because we already know him as a funny guy. His acting was okay, but he seemed like an NPC stuck on a bad video game level.

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!"

My goodness my fellow reviewers that are so poorly rating this.

Pete Davidson was great as a nonchalant 20 something. The home was beautiful. The mystery unique. What is there to not enjoy about this film. I thank God , it's something different from all the generic horror/thriller's out now a days. I never saw the story coming to the end which is brutal and gory for those who enjoy that .

My only complaint is as much as I love Pete Davidson he seemed to old to play the role. I really enjoyed this off the wall thriller/horror.

Any avid horror watcher knows that horror movies rarely if ever go above the 6 point score on imdb. My score is based on rating within the genre.

A solid performance by the lead that makes us care for him, great story, solid effects. The movie relies more on disturbing images and sounds than cheap jump scares.

The movie starts with an interesting mystery that slowly unravels, this does drag on a bit in the middle but gives a more than satisfactory conclusion.

Definitely worth a watch for horror enthusiasts.
