Critic Reviews for The Night House

All Critics (24) | Top Critics (7) | Fresh (21) | Rotten (3)

  • Bruckner told the premiere crowd your reaction will come down to what you find most frightening, "the idea that ghosts exist or the realization that they don't." The statement alone rattled me. Having it on my mind during his movie chilled me to the bone.

  • Unfortunately, the script by Ben Collins and Luke Piotrowski is clunky-in the convoluted nature of its reveals and also in the sometimes-baffling behavior on display.

    February 5, 2020 | Rating: C+ | Full Review…
  • If you're in the mood for scares, and a fantastic lead to boot, The Night House demands a visit.

    January 30, 2020 | Rating: 3.5/5 | Full Review…
  • Instead of making the story more ominous with its very broody tone, The Night House negotiates both lacking ideas about loss and dull horror execution.

  • For as hard as it hits, "The Night House" doesn't bruise enough to follow you home. But the movie's soundscape will vibrate around the hollow of your bones for a long time to come.

  • A knack for creepy atmospherics and individual scares goes a long way in the horror genre, and it takes "The Night House" pretty far.

  • THE NIGHT HOUSE is a horror film of the mind and the heart and a very successful one at that. It holds no easy answers and is very daring for taking that lonely route.

  • A strong haunted house film, where ghosts and the occult come into play.
