If we're being honest, the Hell House franchise has been uneven at best. Hell House LLC was pretty solid, then a "decent but hurt by a weird ending" sequel. By that point I felt the Found Foorage gimmick had overstayed its welcome, so take that with a grain of salt.

That being said, I thought Ofigins was probably the strongest in the series, (with the found footage angle its main weak point), so had high hopes here. What we got was, in my opinion, a better movie than Abbadon Hotel, but an even worse ending.

Pros: Decent tension building and not over relying on jump scares.

Cons: This movie REALLY expects you to be invested in the lore of all the previous movies. Especially the main character, returning from Lake of Fire.

Super-Con: Dat ending.

I am reluctant to call this "horror", and I don't think the movie ever really tried to be. Instead what we get is a rather approach to the "zombie" concept that is far more a drama about humans, family and finding yourself.

Acting is good. Sound is mixed so I didn't have to turn it way up to hear conversations and then go deaf when anything else made noise (a rarity these days. Bless you, sound mixer!).

Over all I think it was a strong production, with thoughtful writing and good acting. Would recommend.

No sex or nudity. Some passionate kissing.

Mild gore If there was swearing, then I missed it.
