The Night House

Confidently directed by David Bruckner from a clever script written by Ben Collins and Luke Piotrowski, "The Night House" excels in tension building -it is both unpredictable and unnervingly restrained.

Rarely have I seen a movie in which simply everything demands clarification.

Hall ties herself into pretzel-like knots: flying high one moment, wallowing in self-pity and despair a nanosecond later.

Intelligent, emotionally compelling and visually sophisticated, for fans of darker fare and old-fashioned spooky stories, The Night House is unmissable.

The Night House is a compelling meditation on the horror of one's own mind.

The Night House is a strong argument for more films that let Rebecca Hall be a scream queen.

A creepy, tension filled, dark descent that gets darker and darker the more you dive into the story. Rebecca Hall gives one of her best performances & David Bruckner directs the hell out of this

What's more terrifying — to have someone you love abruptly snatched away from you? Or to discover you're safer with them gone? Both revelations are crushing, and the film does a fine job laying the groundwork and leaving viewers to decide for themselves.

The film works best when it is a straight up haunted house movie. When the third act takes a violent swerve into psychological thriller, What Lies Beneath-territory... the rock-solid performance of Hall will keep you invested.



A film about picking up the pieces after your life has been completely shattered, The Night House is horror that cuts to the very soul through a devastating performance by Rebecca Hall.
