The House of Him

About This Movie

The House of Him is a curious piece within the horror genre. The atmosphere is claustrophobic, almost suffocating, as the masked killer—whose motivations are steeped in misogyny—preys on Anna, his 27th victim. It's really interesting how the film plays with the dynamics of power and victimhood. There's a great sense of dread that builds as Anna fights against the role imposed on her, and the presence of the dead women literally trapped in the walls adds a haunting layer to the narrative. The pacing feels deliberate, almost methodical, which heightens the tension. Practical effects are employed effectively, giving it a gritty, raw feel that some may appreciate. Performances are solid, especially from Anna, who embodies that struggle beautifully.
