The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Before those defending 'Granny's House' flame me for adding another negative review, this review is coming from somebody who did give 'Granny's House' a fair chance, saw the whole thing and with no prejudice towards the concept (which was actually pretty neat) and genre (actually have a high appreciation for it). Not somebody with a bias against indie/low-budget and watched the film wanting to hate it.'Granny's House' just didn't do it (close to "do anything") for me, sad because it could have been decent and actually wanted it to be. By all means there are far worse films than 'Granny's House', of the genre, of similar budgets and in general, and don't think that it is a 1-star film. It just wasn't a good film either, liked the concept but it was not executed well on the most part at all. There are positives. The music has some creepiness and fits reasonably well. There are some nice unsettling shots.Most of the acting is poor, but Glenda Morgan Brown and Rachel Alig give one hundred percent and do provide moments of tension and scares.Sadly that can't be said for everybody else, with the rest of the acting being emotionless. Bill Oberst Jr doesn't look like his heart was in it and goes through the motions. The worst case was indeed the actor for the son, an abominably wooden performance.Creepiness only comes in spurts and tension and suspense are next to nil, thanks to a lot of ridiculousness, dull pacing and excessive predictability that there is just no freshness to the material. The story, taken far too seriously, seldom gets off the ground, momentum takes forever, and the dialogue is stilted throughout. The direction is confused and most of the photography is slapdash and will induce nausea.In summation, weak but could have been much worse. 3/10 Bethany Cox

Got a chance to see this and thought pretty decent thriller is worth checking out! It is about an elderly lady named Marion (although I really believed they should have called her granny like come on man it's in the title) and her psychotic BFF caretaker. I like talking chances on movies like this as generally the filmmaker is willing to take more chances and this title did not disappoint. The scares and chills were in the right place and had fun taking a chance on it. Also if you are not sure to check it out yourself it has the title Granny in it s so it has to be an awesome horror movie (such as the classic masterpiece "Rabid Grannies"!)

I found this to be a well-executed indie thriller that really brought together disparate ideas into a interesting and compelling story. Not really sure where the negative reviewers are coming from, I guess some people just have to hate.The acting is generally very good, although Glenda Morgan Brown as Granny really stands out--she owns the part and really lights up the screen.I thought the cinematography was exceptional, there were some beautiful shots that really made the movie interesting. There were some very interesting surprises as well, especially the twist ending. What is going on in your small town?

I have no Idea how this film got rated so high. This should have been a 3 or a 4 at most. I wish I could have my 83 minutes back, but unfortunately my Girlfriend made me sit through the whole thing. I really thought the acting was horrible, but for a low budget movie I guess it was not the worst. But the point I'm trying to make here is that we would have never even picked this movie to watch if it wasn't for such the high rating that it got, of course which I know now not to trust the rating system anymore. But up until now that's what we have been using to pick the movies we want to watch, and I gotta say it's worked out pretty good so far. That's all I gotta say really. I would hope people start rating movies more accurately to what they should be.
