Horror House Online Review–A Good Try That Couldn’t Cut It

November 9th, 2009 in Horror, Movies, Reviews -

You know, you’ve got to feel for a movie that’s got big brass ones sufficient to make THIS its synopsis:

A short film horror movie about a haunted house and two investigators were sent in on the night of december 12 2008 at 11:15 pm by the president to investigate the house and kill whats in it.

Does that sound like the intro paragraph to an eighties video game to anyone else?  Like a weird mix of Ghostbusters and Bad Dudes.  But this strange synopsis aside, how does it watch?

Sadly, it watches like a really low budget mix of Ghostbusters and Bad Dudes.  Seriously, this is pretty bad.  And I understand this is, apparently, two kids screwing around with a camera, but considering how much of the dialogue is lost to wind in the mike, and how much of the dialogue wasn’t audible even when they were OUT of the wind and the fact that they left their blooper reel in the movie itself (at one point, one of the “investigators” will turn on a light in a room, only to have it quickly turned off again by the other investigator.)

The Screenhead Ten Scale understands that they tried, but due to cripplingly massive technical problems and a complete lack of editing hands it a three out of ten.
