Mini-review: House (1986)

House
Directed by Steve Miner



Mildly creepy and entirely silly, this movie is bizarrely original and totally unpredictable. Taking a far more literal approach to PTSD than just about anything I've ever seen, this challenges your perception of what to believe and delivers a few decent jump-scares along the way. Some parts are creepy, others are funny, but most of it is just plain weird. The ending is somewhat unexpected, but when the entire movie is at least slightly confusing, that's not necessarily much of a surprise. Overall, worth a watch, and I'll be sure to check out the sequel to see what it might have to offer.

★★★★★☆☆☆☆☆
