A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Mandeep Tyson
The acting in this movie is really good.
Fleur
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Logan
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

It is doubtful that the similarities between the title of this film and House by the Cemetery and Last House on the Left are coincidental. After all, any way to attract attention makes good business sense. Yet, fans of those more visceral tales would probably be disappointed by the tameness of the horror on display here, which may explain why this release has attracted little attention.John Davies (Lee Bane) is a somewhat reclusive writer who rents a large country house, whereby he meets the charmingly old-fashioned Cassie Konrad (Georgina Blackledge) and also discovers he is sharing the house with an even more reclusive old blind woman (Vivian Bridson).This is a beautifully shot, low-budget, 'gentle' horror (if there is such a thing). It is slow moving, but never ponderous due to the appeal of the very small cast. The relationship which develops between Davies and Conrad is delightful – two isolated people who simply enjoy each other's company – and it is that which provides the backbone of the unveiling mystery. There is very little gore or effects, but such things aren't necessary in what is essentially a human take on a familiar haunting theme. This isn't Evil Dead or Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but doesn't ever try to be.

The acting was fine. The plot was fine. The scare factors were fine. The only thing that made this movie so bad for me was the camera work. It is SO shaky (most prominent in the first few minutes of the movie). The entire movie had strange angles. I would understand if the movie was more of a "first person" or "documentary" style movie (i.e. paranormal activity) but it isn't. There was one scene at the beginning (in the bedroom) where I could see the cameraman's shadow and then his reflection in the glass picture frames on the wall. It's as if there was a beginner behind the camera. Other than that, I found it enjoyable for a lazy Saturday evening.

This is just a fantastic movie. It is one of the best movies if not the best I ever seen. The storyline was flawless and it had me on the edge of my seat. The music made this movie extremely creepy and gave a whole lot of suspense. The acting was spot on, they couldn't have picked any better actorsfor this thriller.The twist in this movie was unbelievable and no one could ever see it coming. The ending had me on the edge of my seat and I really hoping they are makinga second one. These other reviews don't make any sense, this was way better then the conjuring. I really hope more people get to see this amazing movie. Definitely a 10 out of 10. The plot of the story revolves around this horror story writer who rents a house for 8 weeks. There is a elderly blind lady living on the third floor. Weird stuff keeps happening and he thinks its the lady. He finally gets to talk to the woman and she says that the person that he rented the house from is her daughter and she killed her friend which happens.to be a girl he has been talking too. He then comforts the lady after she kill her mom and he kills her. It was a awesome movie.

The movie is about a horror movie writer that into a big old haunted house with a creepy mysterious blind woman living on the top floor. His friend and companion states "sounds like a good plot for a film", unfortunately the film we are watching does not seem to confirm her statement. The film is slow moving with out taking advantage of its pace. Long drawn out scenes of your main character walking on the beach and finding messages in a bottle set to indie music, and conversations going over the previous scenes fill a majority of the film. While acting and camera work isn't bad, there simply is no substance to the film and nothing new is brought to the table. There are no scary moments in the film, unless you count a slamming door as scary. Once the ending of the film came around, I wondered if the movie was somehow a misplaced joke that wasn't funny. You will see what I mean when a near replica of a certain Halloween scene is done.
