4.0 out of 5 stars Not so bad at all..., July 15, 2002

This review is from: Christina's House (DVD)

I rented this dvd hoping for a cheesefest and I was not dissappointed. Honestly I expected it to be terrible, as good cheese is hard to find, but really it wasn't too bad at all. The movie starts with a murder in the old house so I wasn't under the impression that it was haunted but that someone, or perhaps something, is living behind the walls. You don't know who it is or why they're doing what they're doing, but the list of supects is long and twisted: the horney/violently jealous boyfriend, the apparently incestuously minded/hothead father, the weird/weird handyman, the angry/weird sheriff, or just some Jason Voorhees type. The daughter just thinks she's going crazy. The movie deftly implicates all of these while at the same time deflecting it. The acting while not great is definately on the upper level of the B-eschelon. The story is well told and has some interesting, quirky elements. I recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Flawed... but Worth a Look, April 25, 2004

This review is from: Christina's House (DVD)

"Christina's House" is an old fashioned killer on the loose movie. It's set in a small town and avoids trying to be a hip "Scream" style slasher film.
Christina, her dad, and younger brother live in a creepy old house. Apparently someone else is secretly living there as well, killing anyone it can and disposing of the bodies before they can be discovered. Pretty creepy stuff, as anyone who's ever lived in a spooky old house themselves can attest.
The film moves along rather slowly, taking it's time to build suspense. The cast is above average as well.
Aside from a few loose ends, this is a relatively solid chiller. It's a nice change of pace from the high tech, fast paced horror films that look great, but are devoid of any real scares. "Christina's House" reminds us why we liked horror films in the first place.

This review is from: Christina's House (DVD)

This movie is, without a doubt, the worst movie I have ever seen. The acting is wretched, the storyline is predictable, there are some things that happen that are so completely random that you have no idea where they came from, and I don't mean that in a good way. It feels like they started to go with something and then changed their minds and failed to keep up with the consistency. This movie is laughably bad. I am begging you to not waste your money. Also, if you choose to waste your money, don't let this movie color your opinion of other "teen" movies, as some of them are quite good. This one is just exceptionally awful.
