The house of boredom

Except for stories I also love to watch films, just like my brother. We kill a lot of time with it.
Most of the time my brother is telling me what film we will watch together next.
This time it's different. Since he still has so many films to watch he says I should watch some by my self starting with: The house of the devil.


Samantha is a student. Since she needs 400 dollar to pay the rent for her new home, she is responding on an ad: Babysitter needed. Her best friend takes her over to the address and will pick her up later.

There isn't really a babysitter wanted but a "sitter" for the old mom, who is upstairs in her room. Samantha is not allowed to go over there or meet her, since mom likes to be on her own. (You wonder why there is a sitter needed at all). Samantha decides to stay since she will be payed very well for just hanging around in the living for an evening (she can pay her rent from it a normal thinking person would start thinking!).

Samantha is bored and so am I. She sits with her feet on the coffee table, is zapping around, then decides to order a pizza (weird too, since the only thing you see her doing is eating pizza plus dinnertime is already over for a long time).



Because she is really bored she starts looking around in the house, breaking a vase (some excitement at last), gets a pizza with some drugs in it and wakes up in a room, tied on the floor with some satanist around her.
She does escape and probably doesn't live happily ever after since she finds her best friend killed in a car.

This film was released at Halloween (2009) and is not creepy at all. Most of the scenery is in the dark and the people look all like back in the 70's. To some this might be creepy.
According to me and my friend (sorry brother I did not watch it alone). It's boring and very predictable, so is the very small part about the satanists. If you like to waste your time then watch this film about a stupid brainless girl, who wants to make money fast and doesn't listen to the wise words of her best friend (who dies because of her stupidity).
The best part of this film is the cover of the dvd and the trailer.
My brother never watched it... after I told him about it the electricity was down! (yeah sure)
