SeeQuant Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Philippa All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Leofwine_draca HOUSE GUEST is a truly terrible would-be psycho thriller filmed in a single house with a bunch of assembled characters larking around. It goes without saying that all of them are very poor actors, including nominal lead Alex Vincent who was once the child actor who appeared in CHILD'S PLAY back in the 1980s. It soon turns out that the psycho terrorising the city is one of those inside the house, but trust me, you won't really care.This seems to be going for an intense vibe a la the recent MOTHER'S DAY remake but it has zero suspense and tension and plenty of bad acting. There's lots of chit-hat between extraneous characters to pad out the running time and some brief murders. The whole thing is never as involving as it needs to be in order to work as a film.
ck14 I found out about this movie looking at Alex Vincent's IMDb page. The movie, at a first glance, looked interesting and I decided to watch it. I looked everywhere for it and I was only able to find it on Amazon. So, I decided to rent it for a little while...and I was really disappointed.The acting was incredibly bland. They sounded like they were reading the script for the first time. The reveal of the killer was rather predictable. I don't know if that was intentional or not but...that doesn't really change my opinion. Some of the sound effects sounded incredibly cheap (I know, the movie's budget is cheap but still...) When the killer was killing Seth, the kicking sounds sounded like two books were being smashed together. Looking at all of these reviews, I only found one person who agreed with me and he (or she)'s on Amazon. It seems like we're the only people who hate this.In conclusion, don't bother with this movie. Horrible acting, cheap effects and overall an awful movie. Avoid!
Josh Hunt House Guest is a beautifully done independent film. Well written, and the acting is solid. All the elements (Writing, acting, editing, cinematography) that were put together to make this film work great. You get a well balance of a thriller, comedy, and drama all in one. Most indies usually end up being these low-budget looking, cheesy final products of what the film is, and House Guest isn't. I give it a 5 out of 5 stars. If you come across this film and wonder if it's worth checking out, you should go for it! Available on DVD and Digital download for a really great price. Wouldn't mind checking out future projects from the filmmakers, and everyone involved in this film.
sharpsuddenshot Alex Vincent aka Andy from Child's Play 1 & 2 told me to come see his new film House Guest back in May 2013 when i seen him at the Spooky Empire Horror Convention in Orlando, Florida. So I went to the premiere on July 15, 2013 in Tampa Florida and was happy I went. I have been a fan of horror movies especially slashers since I was a young teenager. Now in my 30's I still love them. This film does not disappoint. Good kill scenes and a younger cast then most movies I have seen made it stand out. The killer a man claiming to be 44 in the film although looks to be in his 50's does a pretty good job and looks menacing. I would of preferred some more brutal scenes like more torture & blood but I was happy with the film. This movie has Alex Vincent written all over it if you know him on any kind of level as a person in real life. I thought parts of the movie were amusing and the crowd at the premiere which was around 150 people seemed to all enjoy it. Buy this film or watch it if you like stalker type slasher films. I ordered my DVD and am going to have it autographed by some cast members. House Guest (Brian Jalbert) should look into having the film shown at Spooky Empire's Horror Weekend (Orlando) in October I think it would help spread the word on this independent film and I'm sure sell a few DVD's of the film there as well. I liked the movie and I thought it was well done. I do not know how much was spent on the film but the film quality was great & the editing seemed well done. Check it out if your a fan of slasher movies you should enjoy it!
