Home with a View of the Monster

I write many reviews but this movie has something special although it's a low budget movie. It's creepy story with unexpected ending

I'm watching what is listed as horror movie. The owners are staying outside in a car while they rented out their house. She can't even afford shoes not full of holes that she has to tape together. First scene kids appearing in different places, oh wait, there is simple reason. They decide to go back to what I think is a run down shack (note shoes). She finds weapon "what's this?" shock! What, she missed where they were staying? Turns house is nothing less than a mansion. HOW?? By then I'm wondering who made this mess and I'm only in the first 11 minutes. Did the obvious - came here to see what that was. Find 10 stars reviews. That is my clue, the thing is going to be so bad, that who ever made it had to have his pals give it great reviews. Decided not to waste my time. Get real, I will watch movies with seven and even three but TEN??? Hate people trying to fool me into watching something they know stinks.

With reviews literally spanning the range from 1 to 10 I'm here to tell you the truth.

It isn't terrible. The music definitely is but the movie is engaging and well acted.

We do have the now mandatory interracial couple to keep the snowflakes and liberal trend enforcers happy but we also have a pretty interesting story. It's not a simple story but one with some well plotted twists and turns. There's depth to the writing and the direction and acting was able to pull it off. I really feel it was mostly let down by some poor musical choices. A little more backstory as to the genesis of the haunting would've also been nice.

All in all it wasn't a bad way to spend 90 minutes. Don't believe the haters...nor the ballyhoo.

This Movie was very strange. Not really in a good way either. I'd give it 3 stars, plus 1 for weirdness factor. 4/10

This is actually my first review ever.

I felt the acting of this movie was so poor, it left me more disturbed than the movie could have ever done, even if executed well.

Got about 45 minutes in and just had to turn it off. The only monsters are the ones who let thos be released.
