Review of Home Movie

This movie really caught me off guard. On the surface it seems like one of those generic cheap horror movies with kids doing creepy things to seem creepy, all shot on a normal camera to make the movie seem more real, however this movie has a certain tone and pacing which really captures your attention rather than being slow and dull.

Watching through this movie, I kept thinking it would be some generic ending. I assumed that all the creepy things the kids did, was for no other reason than the director thought they would be eerie, with no real connection other than the kids were possessed by demons. It wasn't until I finished the movie and started thinking about it did it really scare me and haunt me, because I started connecting the events and realizing that they all led up to the conclusion, that the kids were acting on plans and ambitions that they had laid out, and that this all began from an idea given to them by the fathers story.

If you're looking for a horror movie full of jump scares and ending with a happy ending, this isn't the movie to watch. If you want something that will provide a consistent creepy atmosphere, and legitimately keep you up at night this is a great title for that
