This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

House hunting is one of the most unique and best horror movies that I have ever seen. This movie is like no other horror movie I have seen before, taking on a bizarre chain of events it is completely original. The best way to watch this movie is to know nothing about the story in it, you should go into it fresh minded and you will be pleasantly surprised. There are small similarities of The Shining, Evil Dead and The Cabin In The Woods. The only thing that I would fault about this movie is the lack of confusion and natural reaction somebody would have if faced with the situation that the characters did in the movie. This is a must see movies and will leave any horror fan more than satisfied.

I found this movie on Netflix, I really wasn't expecting it so be as good as It was.House Hunting is an interesting movie. Two families are tricked into getting stuck in a purgatory like state on 70 acres of land (which is a great deal by the way!), and must work together to get out alive, unfortunately for them, working together couldn't go any worse than it did. Actually, working together didn't go all that bad either because the last thing these people do is anything productive to figure out what the heck is going on.It was definitely worth it, It didn't even make it to the movie theaters, it was released to DVD when it came out.Overall I give it a 8/10.House Hunting was definitely worth the watch.

So, there are these two families who are desperately trying to escape from a spooky home in their car they set out to potentially buy, in tow with a mysterious girl they nearly ran over on the way, who's had her tongue cut out. They try to escape using the path they arrived from, but they just keep driving round in circles. Eventually, they run out of petrol, and are forced to shelter in the property. They think 'someone will come for them' but guess what... no-one does. They're stuck there for weeks, surviving on tins of cheap beef stew which mysteriously appear in the kitchen cupboard, while having to tolerate the obnoxious computerised voice-over of the guy who is selling the house. Not surprisingly, they start to crack up and physically harm each other, as well as see strange visions, including flashbacks of traumatic incidences from their respective pasts.And all while this was going on, all I could think was: "Wot, no phones?"You've got two teenage kids and four adults... who don't have a mobile between them when they go out. In 2013. Yea, right. They could have been included and made out that they couldn't be used because of dodgy reception, or even that the battery was dead, but nope... that was a stretch too far for the great minds who wrote it. You may think this is a minor point, but it is symbolic of the lack of attention to rest of the film, which is confusing when not dull, and when we do get to the blood'n'guts, as brief as possible. It is kind of funny to see cans of cheap slop emerge day in, day out (which sorta reminded me of the Tesco Value range) from nowhere and the people's reaction to having to eat this crap for such an extended period (I wouldn't have volunteered to clean the toilet), but that's a minor pleasure in what is a LLOONNGG haul.And yet AGAIN, they've changed the name of the film for the UK release (to The Wrong House) and given us a great DVD box front cover, which isn't indicative of the quality of the production contained within at all. Once again, don't be fooled. 4/10

This was surprisingly well acted and well done. I like movies where you have to think and this delivers. There is definitely a lot to be interpreted on your own here. However I guessed the very last scene in the beginning but that's OK it was the only part I got right and it was a lucky guess not bc it was predictable. It's worth the rent, watch with friends or family so you guys can discuss after what everyone's idea of the movie was in their perspective. I give this a 7. Would be higher but the ending made me sad and wanted more, which idk if that's a plus on their part but for me I'd of liked a lil bit more in depth for a 10 star rating
