The House of the Devil
Directed by Ti West
A stranger lures a babysitter to a house with an unusually large sum of money. But when she arrives, Samantha doesn’t find any kids. Just a large and very creepy house, that may not be as empty as it seems. Indie horror director Ti West (THE INNKEEPERS) made his mark with this terrifying ‘80s throwback, featuring cult horror legends like Dee Wallace (THE HOWLING), Mary Woronov (NIGHT OF THE COMET), plus Greta Gerwig - before she hit it big. You’ll never bop around listening to headphones in an empty house again after watching what happens to Samantha. Contains violence and gore.

YES! Holy shit, this movie is so good. I caught it in 2017 and have been waiting for Australia for I release it on ANY platform.
There were a few things in this movie I’d call relentless. There was some relentless dancing and relentless pizza eating and even a good deal of relentless bleeding and yet the only horror in this movie was the thought of the 80’s being romanticised.
Shit movie. Such a slow burn and is boring for most of the film and also has a lack luster ending. Save your time and don’t watch it
Gritty, dark and the perfect amount of what the fuck?!?! Honestly surprised me by how good it was. The 16mm film makes it feel like it belongs in the silver age of slashers.
obsessed with the vintage feel. simple story line done so well. great acting, beautiful sets, this is a fun one
