I was expecting a low-budget horror flick, sometimes smaller films can be interesting discoveries, if only "so bad they are good," but this movie is just mediocre. Poorly shot with pitiful effects and an atrocious score, the movie lacks inspiration, either of the scary or humorous kind. Possibly the tone is intentionally subdued to match a "true crime" report, but a reenactment should be more fun! The framing story of the survivor is tedious, and victims pass in and out of the story too quickly to engage the viewer's interest. The most interesting parts are the clips of the real Leonard Lake explaining himself, but they last only a couple of minutes. That said, it could be worse, and some scenes are almost good; other than the soundtrack it's not too obnoxious if you are compelled to complete your snuff collection.

The picture quality is atrocious. They attempt to present the horror but provide almost zero context as to what happened. This is one of the most amateurish attempts at film making I've seen in years. I'm confused why they even bothered to make this as it's pathetic and pointless. This was put together without skill, without subtlety, and worst of all, without properly expressing the actual horror that occurred. This is basically an abomination of a film that further harms the victims. Every single thing about this movie is bad. Bad acting, bad directing, bad music, bad sound effect, bad visual effects, bad storytelling. This is simply an awful, ridiculous movie what should have been more considering the atrocious real life events it's based on.

What was their budget for this, $25? Had they just made a documentary, it may have been more successful. The acting is positively horrendous and the music is annoying.

Literally the worst movie i have ever seen , if a kid at school gave this in as a project in a drama class they would get an 'f' leonard lake and charles ng left behind them a story that would have made the movie of all movies as far as serial killers go, then this pack of jokers create this total dross. actors (if you could call them that) are so bad its actually funny, the filming looks like its been shot on a cheap cell phone.

please do not take my word for this, watch a trailer and see for yourself.

Don't bother watching this movie . there way better movies You would think this movie is about a haunted house right ? Wrong its about a serial killer and not about a house like the title of the movie would suggest

Why does everyone with a camera and a group of friends think they can make a movie? There are some truly great "based on a true story" flicks out there with good production actors and some adherence to the true story. This is made up fluff with nothing to really draw the viewer or hold attention. Don't waste your time on something which doesn't offer any real insight into the events which happened and the horror the real people endured. The actors portraying the victim seem to be no more bothered than someone whose flight is delayed, not truly desperate. Feel bad for the lead female who is really giving her best but is trapped in a bad movie. Would have been more engrossing to document this young actresses horror at being signed on to make a terrible movie than the horror they attempt to portray. Don't waste your time!

As a movie it sucks. Why? The plot is not meant to be a movie.

But regarding the fact that it is based on a true happening and you can actually see the real person on tape, it makes it creepy and uncomforting.

I don't reget watching it, but i would call it an reanactment, or rather documentary, which is not too bad, but for that it could have been reduced to half of the time. This way it's just too long and repetitive.

After just watching this despicable film , I never knew such atrocities were ever committed by this pair of depraved excuses for Human Creatures ... The Movie is Horrible , Pathetic , Disturbing and barely Watchable ... To know that such Evil exists in a World of Miraculous Life and Joy ... is most unbelievable .

Our Creator knows all about these Sick , Twisted mindless beings , and as a Citizen of Earth ... I must day and hope that ... Karma is a Realistic thought that must prevail... One is no longer above ground ... and the other will eventually join him ... Names will not be mentioned ... they do not deserve any such recognition ...

Are just some of the words I can say about this movie! others would be! Bone chilling, nerve shattering, terror trip into insanity, and make you disbelieve that you just seen what you have seen. This movie really did leave me feeling totally disturbed to my wick. Yes I know I gave it a 10* this is how I reached the rating, 64 % Direction, 10% sound track, 23% production & cinematography & 3% acting. so overall is a 10*.

weather or not I would watch again? I think not! if disturbing movies that push all boundary's leaving you wanting to stay awake is your bag? then OK give the movie a go! If not avoid personally the movie should never have been made. But overall other than that I cant find fault in any level
