The House in Between

My quick rating - 2,8/10. This movie reminds me of the same thing "Guinea Pig" movies tried to do. They made the torture and violence look so real and pushed the envelope to make you think "Hey maybe this really is a snuff film". That was the whole point, try to get you to believe. This garbage is no different. Everyone knows today with a phone and a piece of glass, you can make things levitate, green screen nearly anything, etc. So this movie keeps it really simple, and boring I might add. Instead of ghosts being spotted or things flying around the room looking way past what most people would believe, the movie documents a house where the BIGGEST supernatural phenomenon that occurs is a bal rolling down the stairs. To watch these idiots try to play off such a MASSIVE breakthrough (if i put a ball on the very edge of a step everyday, I bet it rolls down sooner or later from all kinds of things, mainly gravity and vibration). This is just so plainly fake, yet done so mildly you may just go, "yeah maybe" but no, it isn't. I am hoping the makers of this read this. Go to Techny Towers, in Illinois. I saw ghosts there, they exist. If you have the balls, check it out. Reach out and I'll tell you the whole story of why it is haunted. Then use your money to find a real haunting and not fake this crap.

This is a prime case of expectation vs reality. For anyone even remotely into "serious" paranormal research (as opposed movie ghosts) the content of this documentary is more interesting than movie ghosts.

The main problem with any and all documentaries or live shows of this kind is trust. You need to trust that the team is not producing the effects themselves somehow. Do you? If you accept what is happening on screen is real, then you need to explain it. People here complain that "nothing" is happening. But the point is - if it's not a hoax - WHY is it moving?

This makes the whole thing interesting. Why is the ball moving seemingly by itself (and only that and no other object on the stairs). WHY are doors opening and closing by themselves? Discrediting the whole film because you expected seeing blood thirsty ghosts, ghouls or other horrors, completely misses the point. And renders the "reviews" meaningless. As someone said a physical source of energy is needed to move a physical object - which moves "paranormal" happenings into physics.

I am convinced that much paranormal phenomena are so far unknown physics and are scientifically explainable. In this regards, and given it's not all a hoax, a *lot happens* in this documentary.

I'm not big on paranormal stuff. Its covid time and I had nothing to watch so I gave it a shot. It's the 1st paranormal thing I fully watched ever. I was pretty into it weather real or fake, so I gave it 3 stars. Seemed like it was legit, if it was fake acting was good, cams and trickery were good as well. But thats only if you disbelieve. All and all legit decent watch, if enough friends do watch, you will all have sides to debate on too.

That's all they got going in this movie. A stationary ball falling down some stairs and a few doors opening/closing. No sinister actions and a lack of anything else. This feels like it should have been filmed and released 20 years ago as recounts/documentaries/dramatizations since are far more interesting than this documentary.

They try to explore the history of the house, the land, add science to examine things, but really none of it leads anywhere. They speculate and 'wag the dog' more than anything that gives real substantial information. If you want to learn about this house in particular and it's underwhelming events this documentary is great for you. Otherwise I'd pass.

Not bad I like the documentary style of this one, similar to the others made. Also the house itself was creepyy. If you like paranormal investigations that are a little more realistic ( I know it's a movie) it's a compelling one to watch. 👻
