Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Leofwine_draca THE HOUSE OF HIM is a very low budget Scottish slasher movie that takes place in a single house and has just two main actors. The plot is about about a killer in a cheap mask whose threatening demeanour is ruined every time he opens his mouth to speak in a soft Scots burr. His victim is a woman who decides to fight back, and there's a supernatural twist in the tale to boot. The film has lots of interaction between killer and victim, some of it violent, but it also feels endlessly padded and very little happens.

gastuwa The House of Him is a well thought out, claustrophobic, suspenseful & at times downright creepy piece of filmmaking. The 2 leads provide excellent foils for each other, with the supporting cast adding to the confusion and creepiness of the situation. The bold, tea-drinking villain, essentially holding the fantastic female lead captive by his very presence in the room, lends real weight to the plight of women trapped in abusive relationships. Seeing a way out, but too afraid to move/leave, in case they get caught in the act... I'd highly recommend going to Vimeo and renting, or buying this film, if you're a fan of suspenseful thrillers. You can thank me later.

mumz ... rather than relying on overly-graphic visuals.This horror mystery opens up with a killing ... and ends with the audience being allowed to look into the mind of a misogynistic killer as an intended victim (and past victims) play with that mind. How refreshing to actually draw the audience in to help bring about fair-play and consequences for the actions of a killer. In today's society, that has grown so dependent on "instant gratification" and not used to "exercising" one's own mind in solving a mystery, I can see where most viewers would think this film was "cheap" and without any virtuous qualities. More is the pity, as this film is definitely worth viewing numerous times to pick up any and all nuances and teasing clues.

Marybeth Royals Maxwell I have watched House Of Him several times. It IS deeply thought provoking. If you expect to watch a slasher film or something of the sort, this is not it. The protagonist is Him, a man who has murdered in the past and plans to continue his sadistic M.O. on Anna, his victim. The tension is palpable throughout the film while watching Anna struggle with the reality of what she is being subjected to and watching Him race steadily down the incline into madness. The film is centered around the stigma of battered women. While it is not a blatant and in your face matter, the feeling is there throughout. While this was a low-budget film, the acting is exceptional. Rankin and Stewart are believable as the main characters; Rankin will break your heart as the tortured soul who ends up in the bowels of insanity while he seems baffled by the turn of events. I enjoyed it immensely, yet if you don't want to *think* during your entertainment, skip it. It is disturbing, intense and so valid for the world we live in; But so worth the time to watch.
