Review of House at the End of the Street (2012) by Kashan P — 29 Apr 2014
Obviously drawing deep from the "Psycho" playbook, I surprisingly found House at the End of the Street enjoyable. Jennifer Lawrence is natural and aside from a some genre-methodical moments and characters, the rest of the cast turn in solid performances.
Spotting cliches isn't difficult here, and despite a convincing performance from Max Thieriot as masqueradedly normal Ryan, I found him slightly unconvincing in maniac mode. Sure, it's ultimately disposable fun, not scary, occasionally rushed and considerably formulaic, but House at the End of the Street managed to deliver decent thrills.
