the s @The_Stranger 08/12/2021 Mind-numbingly bad movie that's about…I'm not really sure what it's about to be honest and I just finished watching it. I know about every 8 minutes they would flash up the silhouette of a grim reaper type figure and there was a lot of urgency surrounding the son who was cleaning out his dad's house after he had died. Boring, underdeveloped characters, no real plot to speak of, sparse dialogue clearly witten by a child. Nothing to see here. And when I say that, I literally mean there is nothing of interest in this film. How it is classified as a horror move I absolutely have no idea.

When his sister Betty (Jessie Rabideau) sells the car that their father killed himself in, the two must come to grips with their relationship with one another. However, there's a hunchbacked monster who has been tracking them, as well as their possibly dead Uncle Pete (James Russo, who has been in everything from Once Upon a Time In America to The Ninth Gate). Betty and her fiancee Ben (Ryan Kattner) want to invite him to their upcoming wedding, but he may have become so lost inside that unfinished house or in the loss of his father that he may never come back. Or perhaps the same demons that haunted his father, which could be emotional or straight-up supernatural, what with all of the red eyes in the paintings he left behind that match the visions in the forest surrounding the house. Writer/director Matthew Goodhue doesn't give any simple answers here. If you're looking for a ghost story filled with jump scares, this would not be the film. It feels deeply personal and a film that may need several watches to fully comprehend. This is Goodhue's first full-length movie after creating some short films. He's smart, keeping this compact and focused. See more Read all reviews
