This movie is hard to rate. On the one hand, it's very well done for how cheap it is. But it also misses the mark quite a bit.
If you're reading this and you don't know the director, writer, and lead actor Josh has a YouTube channel called Movie Timelines (or had, if you're reading this way in the future), you should seek it out before or after watching this, as this is basically a fictionalized behind-the-scenes look at his life.
It's about a horror YouTuber receiving a door knob from the Amityville house and becoming cursed as a result. While this movie is currently classified as Horror, it's far more funny than scary. Josh is naturally funny, and his one-liners will have you laughing (or perhaps just chuckling), which unfortunately undercuts a lot of the tension he works to establish. The ridiculous demon costumes and bad cgi also help make the movie funny. Overall, this is a much better comedy than horror.
Still, though, Josh makes some interesting observations about horror films throughout, which bumps this up for me. I enjoyed it, but I felt it could have been smarter.
