The 2009 was relatively a good year for horror left us great films like trick r treat, Grace, Splinter, Zombieland, Paranormal Activity etc ... some other disappointed me very much like the unborn or dragme to hell, (still do not understand you see this movie, it seemed to me little more than a stupid one time or another comedian) now that I had the pleasure of seeing me House of the devil should not hesitate a second to include it among the best of last year.
House of the Devil is the kind of movie for its plot so simple yet compelling is better seen with as little information as possible, so what I will say this:
Aesthetic Eighties + Satanic rituals + eclipse lunar + babysitter hired by an unlikely pair + The Nanny from a very bad night: House of the devil.
From the beginning we noticed a very disturbing air in the film, we know that in the end to protagonist is not going to do anything right and how the plot is made quite fond leaves us with the beautiful actress, and we want that all the time fuck never come.
In many reviews I read that the brand as "slow" but I did not think, since there is no time lost and all the supposed "dead space" is driven with a voltage issue, as I said, we look to at one time very bad things will happen, so do not let me relax even for one second since the beginning of the footage until they explode the consequences.
The performances are excellent, without exception, and although there are familiar faces make a very good work, emphasizing clear, the protagonist, and her best friend, two very well drawn and interesting, unusual in such productions as they are not very typical cliché of the young victims, the couple also hired a babysitter is fine, from the outset we note a disturbing eccentricity (especially in men) that leaves us no bother at all times on the screen.
The aesthetic is amazing, it really seems that we are watching a movie from another point in the history of cinema is like a time machine to a time that even if I lived, everything seemed much easier and relaxed, all the costumes, planes, the sets we are located in the 80s, but its premise is more recognizable in seventies genre films.
Music is always right and according to the moment, there is a ribbon fence to see major bloodshed then do not expect much gore, there are a few bloody scenes that are worthwhile, but the shots do not go around .
In conclusion, house of the devil, is a recommended product, rather than its plot, its irreproachable aesthetic, many may feel bajonazos rate especially in the middle, I personally enjoyed it much, and I almost all of her charm.
best: "Some
great planes (like the protagonist climbing the stairs) Pure
-80s in its setting and implementation.
"There are times when you really get nervous.
Worst:
"Some people may find" slow "(not me). Supernatural
-end clashes with the rest of the set.
for me: 8.0/10
