The Haunted House on Kirby Road

I love horror, just about seen all there is and I've seen some really awful movies in the mix. This one is in the top three for worst horror movie. It's not a horror in the slightest. The first part was ok, some funny bits, quite entertaining. The director should have kept that bit going and forget about the horror in the second part. It didn't work on any level. THIS IS A VERY BAD MOVIE, SAVE YOURSELF THE TIME AND DONT WATCH IT.

Wow. That was awful.Wow. That was awful. Wow. That was awful. Wow. That was awful. Wow. That was awful. Wow. That was awful.

I thought the first half of The Haunted House On Kirby Road was all right, with a couple good laughs and not much (or any) horror at that point. The acting wasn't bad either, not spectacular but not annoying either. And then came the second part. The part that is supposed to be the horror side of the movie. Now, that was pretty lame, if not awful at some point. The acting changed completely from being okay to bad. The horror scenes, if you can call them like that, are very badly done, quite the opposite of the first half of the movie where I thought the cinematography was more than decent. And even if you would like to pass the horror scenes as humor it didn't work at all, it was just bad. The movie ratings dropped at that point. Before the 'horror' I would have rate it a six but now a three is more than fair enough.

Six young friends watch a video of a haunted house on the internet. One of them recognizes the person in the video. They decide to check out the haunted house on Kirby Road.

It's a low budget Canadian indie horror. The setup is fine if rather plain. The condom scene has one hilarious laugh. It's a good start but it stagnates upon arriving at the house. It takes awhile for the horror to start. In fact, it's well into the second half. The actors are ready to scream but the house is not up to the challenge. It's an indie horror that fails to be scary.

This weird turd is some kind of a teen comedy with horror elements and the mess just doesn't work, mostly because everything is done so horribly badly. Script is childish, acting very poor, characters are annoying and you just wish them to die fast and finally there is the most irritating sound effect played all the time towards the end.

We have these 3 nerds that somehow just have 3 hot girls ready to hang with them for some reason. Now of course everybodys smoking weed but nobody is high, although it's a bit bad taste to have a "teen" driver under the influence. Now clearly we are to think them as underage, though the description for the movie calls them 20-somethings which seems more likely since the actors don't look like teens.

All other people we see are a store clerk that is a strange pervert (I didn't know buying condoms was so difficult in USA) and a crazy cop that serves no purpose to the movie what so ever.

Now we finally get to the haunted house where we endure some stupid clichés from every teen movie ever and then we get to enjoy the stupidest thing ever invented in movie history - the sound of heartbeat being played loud every other minute to tell you that something scary might happen. That sound makes you wanna puch the sound guy of this sad excuse of a movie.
