Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

This film is actually a waste of time, please make a favour to yourselves and skip this, ABSOLUTELY DON'T WATCH IT.

I've watched the movie and came to see reviews. Honestly the number of reviews which claim they couldn't figure out what this was about astounds me. This is a good ghost story and the only problem was that it was slow moving. It's pretty obvious what the original sin was and the recurring sin and why the shame was cursing the family. If you can't figure it out, then go back to Saturday morning family sitcoms, for Pete's sake. Good for a relaxed viewing of an interesting ghost story, as long as you aren't expecting freak scares and true horror.

Firstly, the actors themselves I found were excellent. As was the cinematography, which painted the promise of something bleak and haunting.Unfortunately, the story went nowhere slowly and let the viewer down on this promise. Lastly, the title itself "The Lodgers"... By definition a lodger is a person who rents accommodation in another person's house. The house was built by and kept in the family, twisted generation after twisted generation, and nobody else was ever allowed in, let alone rent a room. The ghosts below, were those of the family, not lodgers. This might tell you something about the writing in The Lodgers.

I loved this film. Every frame was awash in gothic splendor. Made me think of Poe! Had me spellbound from start to finish. A great accomplishment to the gothic horror genre! Look forward to what the director will do next!
