Review of The Open House

Basically a decent thriller totally and utterly let down by the ending. I was expecting a good twist, or a tying together of various strands that seemed to weave throughout the story but they lead nowhere. It just was not the kind of film where lack of resolution could be justified. It was like budget or the imagination just ran out and everyone said 'Stuff it ...let's just get it in the can!' I disagree with another review stating it did not depend on jump scares. It sure did. And a building, winding mystery that was looking very interesting but ended in blandness. I gave it five for the more imaginative effort before the disappointment.
