  • THE NIGHT HOUSE (no spoilers)

    From moviePig@21:1/5 to All on Sat Feb 5 09:57:11 2022
    After her husband's sudden suicide, a young woman awakens to noises in
    the house he built. Rebecca Hall keeps THE NIGHT HOUSE ably balanced on
    the edge of thriller vs. supernatural horror. Mostly recommended.

    Decent film. Good actors.

    Unusual movie, hard to figure, but with maybe not quite as much of a
    payoff as I'd hoped.

    ...me too. I think the payoff itself was actually pretty solid on
    paper, but set up too quietly. However, I had similar complaint about
    DON'T LOOK NOW (1973), which is widely regarded a masterpiece...
