Synopsis: Based on true unexplained events, The House of the Devil is about Samantha a broke college girl who accepts a babysitting job in a house in a deserted area because she need the cash, but the Satanic cult that lured her has a different plans for the night.This film is a homage throwback to 80's horror films. It is set in the 1980s and its production design, score, sound tracks, and even the titles sequences all belongs to that era. That is why this film kinda works, and ironically compared to today's horror, it looks absolutely fresh. Too bad the slow and deliberate buildup was so suspenseful and thrilling, but the payoff is mediocre at best. Anyway, if you are nostalgic for a horror films from your childhood era, you may wanna check it out. I would give it
3/5.
