Movie Review: House at the End of the Street

Hey, that house over there?  Yeah, the one that’s kind of falling apart.  Wanna hear a story?  It’s about a girl that went crazy and killed her family….  Mmm, gotta love local myths.  Hasn’t everyone had one of “those” houses in their neighborhood at one time or another?  Well, in House at the End of the Street it’s that time for a mother and daughter that are making a new start in a new town.  Probably should have gone one town over.  If they’d done that though, we wouldn’t have such a creepy-good shocker on our hands.  We win, they lose.

House at the End of the Street (or the lovely acronym I’ve seen, HATES) cranks things right up with a flashback that shows the unfortunate events.  Things continue on in the present, four years later.  Momma Sarah and teen daugher Elissa move into the house next door; such a bargain, what a great idea!  Sarah’s a doctor so her schedule is erratic.  But the first night there she notices a light on in the house next door.  The house where the murders occurred.  The house she was told was vacant.  Oops.
