"Masterpiece" "Brilliant" "Greatest"?!? IMDb exaggerators do it again. So I had to post my review to hopefully save others from being led astray.

Drumroll please....

THE HOUSE WITH LAUGHING WINDOWS- After much hype I got the chance to see Pupi Avati's THE HOUSE WITH WINDOWS THAT LAUGH, the new Euroshock uncut DVD, and put simply the film doesn't live up to the hype.

The movie isn't bad, just rather overlong, and not very engaging. Or more precisely it does engage, it builds some moments of real atmosphere, and tension, but seemingly fails to follow through on the atmosphere.

The ending is equal parts interesting and ridiculous. And I found the protagonist more infuriating and stupid than anything else.

(possible spoiler)

Yes leave your girlfriend alone in a house of killers after she begs you to take her away. He's a scumbag.

(end of spoiler alert. see that wasn't that bad)

A movie almost immediately dismissible. Worth a look if its on, but not worth making any effort to find. save your money. C-.
