The Deep House

2021
7
Director: 
Alexandre Bustillo e Julien Maury

SYNOPSIS: 

During a dive in a remote French lake, two boys specialized in underwater exploration videos discover a house submerged in deep water. Their trip turns into a nightmare when they discover that the house was the scene of atrocious crimes.

REVIEW: 

Yet another reinterpretation of haunted houses but rather original because the ghosts emerge from the bottom of the abyss this time. A high-tension film that involves you in first person... together with the protagonists we will always be underwater and we will feel like we can't breathe, we will feel trapped without the possibility of resurfacing... Highly not recommended for those who suffer from hydrophobia. The film is technically excellent and visually very beautiful and even if the story is simple and the characters stereotyped it still does not bore, perhaps also because of the short duration. The underlying message is a criticism of today's world of social media that pushes us to film everything and feed it to the masses for a few more likes.
Nothing exceptional but enjoyable.

Presence

2024

A Haunting Whisper in the Void of the Ordinary With Presence, Steven Soderbergh returns to the supernatural thriller genre with a film that is as much a stylistic exercise as it is an exploration of trauma and absence. Eschewing jump scares and loud narratives, the director crafts an intimate horror experience that slowly seeps under the viewer's skin, evoking a deep, almost physical unease. David Koepp’s screenplay — known for his work on Panic Room and Stir of Echoes — unfolds in a rarefied narrative space, where the true protagonist is emptiness: the physical emptiness of an apparently ordinary house and the emotional void...

Burnt Offerings

1976

Based on the novel of the same name by Robert Marasco. A slowly building gothic nightmare, the film is distinguished by an oppressive atmosphere that develops with a slow but inexorable pace. The terror does not come in the form of sudden jump scares, but through a growing tension and a sense of inevitable doom. The house seems to absorb the vitality of its inhabitants, and the mystery that surrounds it becomes increasingly disturbing. A stellar cast and memorable performances, Karen Black is perfect in the role of the mother, who goes from loving and caring to completely subjugated by the influence of the house. Oliver Reed, as...

The Noonday Witch review The Noonday Witch

2016

When you think of the most chilling horror tales of all time, there are a lot of staples that come immediately to mind when it comes to possible settings – like dank asylums, haunted houses, isolated forests, or just about anywhere that feels a little creepier and more sinister under cover of darkness. You don’t probably think of sun-drenched corn fields or bright summer days in the countryside, but The Noonday Witch may just change your mind about that. The Noonday Witch is a 2016 Czech language film brought to the screen by promising Czech director, Jiri Sadek. (In fact, Sadek is discussed in many genre circles these days as a... Read More

The Black Room Review The Black Room

2016

When it comes to classic horror tropes – like haunted houses and the dark secrets they hide – there’s definitely more than one way to approach material that is very familiar to the average genre fan by now. More and more modern filmmakers are adopting a cerebral approach and turning their haunted house movies into social commentaries with something larger to say. Others are focused on simply telling a good scary story with plenty of jump scares and special effects. Still more go for an exploitive approach that is almost intentionally trashy. The Black Room could probably best be described as the third type. The Black Room was... Read More

Winchester review Winchester

2018

What horror fan doesn’t love a good haunted house story – especially one based on real people, places, and events? That’s Winchester in a nutshell. If you’ve ever been to San Jose’s Winchester Mystery House (or heard of it), then you’re already somewhat familiar with the backstory to Winchester. Also known as “the house that ghosts built”, the Winchester Mystery House was built by Sarah Winchester, widow of William Winchester, inventor of the famous rifle. After her husband and daughter both pass away, the grieving Sarah becomes convinced that she’s haunted by the many ghosts of those killed by Winchester firearms. She decides... Read More

Amityville Theater Amityville Theater

2015

In my opinion, it seemed to keep a little history of Amityville. They used a Ouija board like back in the old Amityville Horror movie. This movie had hardly anything to do with Amityville except that it was in Amityville, NY. Other than that, this had really nothing to do with the history of the house at all. The soundtrack and music in the movie should have had some trace back to Amityville with as far as the theme. Some parts were cool and crazy. Altogether, this movie was ok. That is my review. It is short because I have nothing much else to say.

The House That Screamed

1969

Narciso Ibáñez Serrador, a cult figure in Spanish cinema, delivers a disturbing, elegant, and deeply layered film with The House That Screamed (La residencia). Far from the explicit horror typical of its era, this film plays with atmosphere, psychosexual undertones, and social repression to construct a gothic nightmare driven by a hypnotic rhythm and sustained tension. Set in an isolated girls’ boarding school in 19th-century rural France, the film slowly builds a claustrophobic microcosm where discipline, control, and sexual repression reign supreme. The headmistress—... Read More

The Church

1989

The Church is a refined example of late 1980s Italian horror that masterfully blends gothic atmosphere, religious symbolism, and dreamlike visions into a hypnotic and unsettling cinematic experience. Directed by Michele Soavi, a protégé and collaborator of Dario Argento, the film showcases surprising stylistic maturity and marks a significant evolution of the genre beyond the traditional giallo/horror framework. The plot centers around a cathedral built atop a medieval mass grave of heretics, and the ancient evil buried beneath its foundations, waiting to be unleashed.... Read More

Run

2020

"Run" is a taut psychological thriller that explores the twisted and unsettling dynamics of a mother-daughter relationship, pulling the viewer into a claustrophobic spiral of tension and suspicion. Directed by Aneesh Chaganty, known for his original work on Searching (2018), the film confirms his ability to craft compact, engaging, and deeply disturbing narratives. Sarah Paulson delivers a chilling and masterful performance, making even the smallest affectionate act seem unsettling, while Kiera Allen, in her film debut, proves to be a compelling presence with rare...

Nightbitch

2024

When Motherhood Bites… Literally If you’ve ever wondered what would happen if maternal frustration merged with animal instinct and a pinch of suburban werewolf lore, Nightbitch is the cinematic answer you never knew you needed. Rachel—played by Amy Adams, who finally seems to be enjoying not being liked (not even by herself)—is a stay-at-home mom who, somewhere between diapers and organic carrot purée, begins to suspect she’s turning into a dog. Yes, a dog. Literally. But make it fashion. The film—based on Rachel Yoder’s novel—is a surreal, furious manifesto on... Read More
