House (Miner)

House. Steve Miner, 1986.
😸
Edition screened: Included in Arrow’s House: Two Stories Blu-ray set, released 2017. English language. Runtime approximately 93 minutes.

Summary: No depictions of violence or harm to animals.

I do not like it when adults talk to children in a ridiculous mush-mouthed lisping voice, as though children were mentally deficient. Similarly, I do not appreciate children’s movies that are intentionally plodding and redundant in the mistaken assumption that young people can understand stupid things better than interesting things. Children’s movies should be stimulating and wonderful, not insultingly retarded.

House is a horror film of sorts, targeted at mentally deficient children of all ages.

Warning: Arrow’s House: Two Stories set also includes the second film in the House franchise, which is so stupefyingly dumb that it makes this first film seem as though it were made with good intentions. And Rumer Godden has it that installments III and IV are “not as good.”
