House on Elm Lake

Freddy Krueger? Maybe. Jason? Sounds pretty cool. House at the end of the Street? THAT'S IT! All three!

The story starts of okay, if not predictable. Following the theme of doomed homes'past murders here, DO NOT MOVE INTO THIS HOUSE'. Unfortunately after 10 minutes of the movie, the house has new tenants. The actors/actresses from the start are of a very poor standard. It does not improve. They seem like they are part of a haunted house reality program on daytime television and should really rethink their careers. There are some moments that make you jump, but only because the music gets louder. Without using spoilers, this film progresses into nothing after an Amityville style beginning. If you watch the first 10 minutes and have a feeling of DeJa Vu. Then no need to continue with the movie as you have already seen the plot, film beginning and end. But, most probably with better actors in scores of other movies.

There were a couple of creepy spots, but the movie as a whole was very questionable. The story, acting, delivery, script, stupid voice effects - all annoying and not to my liking. Also - why did the old man have to be without his clothes?

Weak cookie-cutter horror movie that's been done many times before. Previous owner did bad things, new owners experience violent "echoes" of the prior events. The "horror" consists mostly of some gore and jump scares, but to me the worst part of the movie was that the director seems to think that prolonged loud, jarring noises (screams, music- like cacophony, screams, and screams) make for a scary movie.

They don't, and this isn't scary - it's aggravating and annoying. I actually fast-forwarded through many of them.

Otherwise, the movie is just a retread.

This movie had so many chances to be half decent. Although the acting was subpar the story could have saved it. But nope! The story fell into sad attempts to be scary and only ended up a letdown. Not sure why I keep giving these movies a chance...must be a glutton for punishment hahaha
