About This Movie

House of Afflictions, released in 2017, is an intriguing blend of horror and thriller that plays with the emotional weight of loss. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and there's this palpable sense of dread that builds as Kate, the protagonist, tries to navigate her grief. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing for moments of stillness that heighten the impact of the supernatural elements. What’s distinct here is the exploration of a mother’s anguish intertwined with haunting occurrences in her new home. The practical effects are modest but effective, contributing to the eeriness without overshadowing the narrative. The performances, particularly from the lead, weave a compelling portrait of vulnerability and desperation, making the viewer question what’s real and what’s a manifestation of her trauma.
