shoutout to horror movies where men simply can’t be seen, gotta be one of my favorite genres
tylerSep 4, 2021really love when a horror movie introduces outlandish complex storytelling that actually works in context and also holds back just the right amount to avoid spelling out all of those complexities to the audience… what a sexy fun concept

i'm so in love with the way that this was written. i feel like these days it's much more common for horror films to only have selective scenes that are scary rather than the entire film as a whole, but there is something intensely uneasy that lingers during the entirety of…
clemAug 20, 2021Adding half star for having a character's phone be on a charger while they sleep instead of just keeping it disconnected on the night stand like a sociopath.
Brian CollinsAug 23, 2021I saw this 3 hours ago and still am yet to unclench my butthole. Features one of the most effective jumpscares I’ve ever seen - left me absolutely rattled.

•lily•Sep 5, 202163 The Night House doesn't necessarily stick the landing with its narrative revelations, but until then, it's an ambiguous and startling slice of psychological horror. Rebecca Hall's performance is the foundation of a film that plays with physical space before finding…
SilentDawnAug 20, 2021the reveal of *~what’s going on~* is kinda lame, and i wish it had gone in like multiple other directons. mostly negligible though bc otherwise this rocks

- Chloe likedThe Night House
Finally a horror movie with some good jump scares, I was almost hyperventilating. I had so many questions throughout just to have all the answers crammed into a one minute scene…and that kind of sucked. Great plot, horror, and acting, only wished the pacing was better.
Ellie Rogers dislikedThe Night HouseSo boring I’d rather watch paint dry it would probably be more entertaining then this movie
megan likedThe Night Houseon the edge of my seat… would not recommend watching at night
- Superbad likedThe Night House
A movie that actually stands out with its concept and camera work that sadly destroys all of this with a copout happy ending when in reality it should have kept with the tone and had a dark ending Don’t know why they made this rated R if they weren’t gonna do anything with the rating and butchered…
boo dislikedThe Night Houseit was… a movie?
Izzy likedThe Night HouseI thought the portrayal of “Death”, if that’s what we want to call it, was super interesting and subtle and spooky. Some really cool imagery and storytelling, honestly surprised by how much I liked it. It’s kind of like if Final Destination took itself extremely seriously.
- Blake likedThe Night House
Didn’t expect a horror movie to make me cry. I enjoyed watching the mystery unfold, and this film has some fresh ideas, especially visually (can’t say too much w/o spoiling). Overall it has some solid scares and a good mystery with powerful themes around death & grief.
Ahmed Tariq lovedThe Night HouseWhat I loved the most is the use of negative space as an active element in the story. They also used what’s called The Negative Harmony, which is inverting the notes of a piece of music you are familiar with to give you this feeling of unease and discomfort. Mind blown!
hannah k lovedThe Night HouseLoved this movie! Suspenseful and I really liked the ending. I’m usually really good about guessing where a story line is going and how it’s gonna end but this one was actually really interesting and took me a bit longer! Definitely would recommend as a good thriller!!

This movie draws you into her grief and anger until you feel it too. So much more than a horror film. It keeps you thinking about it long after the credits rolls. Subtle and eerie and riveting.
CAcheryl averySlow moving confuse fest. Loud noise scary
NBNicolas BarrettFor the first 30 minutes or so it’s boring but as soon as you get deeper into what is going on you will want more and more even after the movie ends I hope they make a sequel maybe a prequel maybe about the husband how this all began I would love that
- JGJesus Gomez
Not a scary movie a lot of suspense and at the end a twist on the story not what I had in mind but great story
TMTristin MoselyWent in without having seen anything about the movie and was truly mentally scared. Been very long since a movie has done that. 10/10.
SCSalvador CasarezVery slow

There are enough crafty surprises buried within The Night House to just about outweigh the elements that don’t work quite as well, mainly because it’s all delivered with such fiery conviction by Hall. The house might be built on shaky foundations but its inhabitant is utterly unshakable.

Unfortunately, the script by Ben Collins and Luke Piotrowski is clunky—in the convoluted nature of its reveals and also in the sometimes-baffling behavior on display.
