The House At the End of the Street (Movie Reaction and may contain some Spoilers)

(Edited)



Hey friends! :)
It's been a while since I made a movie review or reaction, so I'm pretty excited to share this post. Yesterday afternoon, I felt like watching some horror films or perhaps psychological thriller ones.

I'm not really into watching movies since I'm more of an anime freak, but when I do, I usually choose this genre.

As I was browsing through Netflix, I stumbled upon this not-so-new movie called, "The House at the End of the Street".

Here's a screenshot from Netflix.

The movie plot as described on the site was pretty simple. However, it made me wonder how the movie would go. Another reason why I watched this was Jennifer Lawrence. I love how she played in Hunger Games, so I got really curious about her acting for this movie.


Basically, the movie started with a flashback to the year when the double murder happened in that house. The family's daughter killed her parents and ran to the woods. Some people think that person is still lurking in the woods somewhere, while authorities claimed that she drowned in the dam.

Those were the stories told to the main character Elissa and her mom by their new neighbors. Elissa and her mom recently transferred to that place following her mom's divorce. They wanted to start anew in a place faraway from where they used to live.

Elissa is a teenager who loves to sing and create songs. One time, he was asked out by some neighbor's son to hangout. She went with him and met a lot of other people her age, however, she didn't like the bunch. I thought I'd feel the same as her. They were so wild and stuff, so she decided to walk home that night. And there, she met Ryan. He's the son of the family from that house. He used to live with his aunt when the murder happened and now, he's back to the house as he now owns it.

Ryan is being ridiculed by the people in the area. A lot of people talk behind his back and wonder why he's still staying at that house. He's aloof and socially awkward in some way.

However, Elissa found herself comfortable with him. He was sad yet adorable for her, so eventually the teenage main character fell for him. He, too, developed feelings for her.

The problem is her mother and the people around them. They were scared of the fact that Ryan had a psychotic sister who killed their parents. So, what will happen to their relationship then? It's for you to find out. haha

It might have sounded like a romantic film, but that was where the action began. A lot of secrets were revealed and I found myself in awe every time because of the interesting twist of events.

These kinds of films really suit her! She's a very effective actress. I love her.

Anyway, the movie was really interesting for me. It started mild, but it got crazier and crazier as more and more secrets were unlocked. There were a lot of unexpected part that made me like it more.

I love horror and thriller movies, especially if it's a psychological one. I love plot twists and stuff, so I really enjoyed this. I recommend you watch it if you're into the same genre. :)




Anyway, I'll end this post here for now. I am yet to make my post for Day 3, but will definitely make one tonight. Thanks a lot for checking this out!

Do you have any psychological thriller/horror films in mind? Please share some recommendations to me below. I'd love to watch and make some reaction posts for them as well. :)

It's not that scary nor bloody, so it's OK. I hope you get the chance to watch it. :)
