House of Darkness (2022) | Rotten Tomatoes (original) (raw)

Peter Bradshaw Guardian This feels like something LaBute wrote in an afternoon on the notes app on his smartphone while thinking about something else. Rated: 1/5 Oct 4, 2022 Full Review Noel Murray Los Angeles Times While the material here is thin and largely predictable (aside from one great jump scare), the cast is outstanding and the dialogue is snappy, delivered at a brisk pace. Sep 16, 2022 Full Review Peter Sobczynski RogerEbert.com An intriguing and occasionally quite witty battle of the sexes, in which not all of the bloodshed is strictly metaphorical. Rated: 3.5/4 Sep 9, 2022 Full Review Ygraine Hackett-Cantabrana Moving Pictures Film Club Despite the film being dialogue heavy, this setting and the witty script keep both the tension and rhythm of delivery at an exciting pace, gripping even the most attention challenged viewer. Rated: 5/5 Jul 15, 2024 Full Review Matt Pais MattPais.com A screen saver posing as a movie, with a dead-end plot merely killing time before, um, killing time. Rated: C- Jun 12, 2023 Full Review Jordy Sirkin Jordy Reviews It HOUSE OF DARKNESS takes a famous gothic horror tale in a new direction as a slightly comical examination of modern dating and misogynistic culture.

Sam Movie sucked ass, just a guy being awkward for an hour and a half Rated 1 out of 5 stars 09/25/22 Full Review anonymous waste of time and money Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/12/22 Full Review Chas Overall this movie was just awful. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 09/10/22 Full Review Donnie P Horrible and a waste of time. Storyline sucked. Takes forever and goes nowhere. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/21/25 Full Review Filmy M Man thinks he’s got lucky,, oh they are obviously vampires, talk bollocks for hour and 25 mins, oh they are vampires, vampires kill man who’s not so lucky… glad I’m drunk Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/27/24 Full Review Vito P A very simple film about a deliberately repetitive, boring and slimy man with whom one can neither fully sympathise nor enjoy his inevitable end. A sign of a well-written character trapped in a typical gothic story. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/24/24 Full Review Read all reviews
