House

House

Michael Madsen, Reynaldo Rosales, Heidi Dippold, Julie Ann Emery

Director: Robby Henson

The horror movie hall of shame has a new member. On paper at least, one-time television director Robby Henson has enough to play with. And with Thr3e (2007) he also showed he has a few frightening tricks up his sleeve.

In House we have a grieving couple trying to get their marriage back on track. We have a spooky house. And we have some freaky characters who may not be what they seem.

Good enough. But Henson lets things slip by not playing the film for what it is, or what it should have been, and that's pure B-grade schlock.
