Review of Are You in the House Alone? (1978) by Nicki M — 02 Jul 2015

I can't tell anyone. They won't believe me.

Gail is a high school teenager that routinely goes on double dates with her best friend that leads to her making out for a long time with her high school crush. However, she never wants to take it the distance and have sex. She begins getting plagued by crank calls that no one takes seriously; however, as the calls continue, it becomes more apparent her caller is on his way to her house...

"I am getting closer.".

Walter Grauman, director of Nightmare on the 13th Floor, Outrage, Covenant, Cover Up, The Untouchables (1959), 633 Squadron, and Pleasure Palace, delivers Are you in the House Alone. The storyline for this picture is actually fairly interesting and unfolds well. The acting is solid and believable and the few thriller scenes are dramatic. The cast delivers solid performances and includes Dennis Quaid, Blythe Danner, Tony Bill, Robin Mattson, Alan Fudge, and Ellen Travolta.

"I want you to have it all!".

I came across this movie on Netflix and had to add it to my queue (I honestly thought I had already seen it but I hadn't). This was fairly good as I liked the characters and how they were presented. This wasn't particularly intense, but it unfolds well and I liked how it concluded. This is definitely worth a viewing.

"He raped me!".

Grade: C+.
