House on Eden Reviews

4.9 - Not great but I kinda really liked it?

It’s one of the most authentic feeling found footage/shaky hand-cam horrors in a long time. Neither of the leads are especially gifted *actors* but they do have the right camera presence for this type of story. Leaning on their YouTube/TikTok experience gave this a level of realism that is sometimes sorely missed in this subgenre.

The intro travel & set up was way too long & had some of the shakiest & blurriest camera work of all time, plus way too many camera switches, but once they reach their destination the vibe shifts well. It’s incredibly derivative & tropey, but they use their chosen mythology well, leave plenty of bread crumbs from the start, & provide a pretty memorable final sequence.

I think this may have worked better as a 30-40 minute short film, but a definite A-for-effort on a minimal budget.

Went in with low expectations and it still wasn't great. I'm a big found footage fan and I had a rough time sitting through this one.

Tried to mix Blair witch with grave encounters with a splash of cults and basically failed everywhere. This slow burn at an hour and twenty minutes was way too long for me. Not worth your time.

This is a very narrow line between meh and liked. It has its interesting moments for sure but another times it’s just frustrating. The lead plays a total jerk but it doesn’t add to the story. It’s just honestly obnoxious.

It was actually better than I expected it to be and had some creepy moments, it just felt very derivative.

It's probably a better watch if you are familiar with these people's YouTube content.

Terrible

it was hard to see kris act since i’ve known her online personality for so long, kind sick ass endings though

What I expected really

Scary but acting was awful

6/10 this was a weird watch. Loved the found footage and weird bits. But had some slow points that felt pointless

5/10

sometimes youtubers should stick to youtube and that’s okay!

It’s giving paranormal activity but worse. The continuity was messy. You have to know the YouTubers to know why they did certain things. The whole plot literally revolved around them reading a Wikipedia article.

This was so bad. Waste of time.

Slow start, but some very solid scares

71/100 was ok, as a viewer I was walked into a unbelievable event for the scare scenes . And nooone ever watches the recordings!

Defo biased because I love Kris (and Celina and Jay too) but really enjoyed it. Understanding the project from their YouTube videos about it definitely helps because some people watching maybe don’t know it was originally just a passion project done in a short time frame

Lilith

Love this movie.

it was okay, I don’t think I’d watch it again but I like these types of movies so I’ll give it a like over a meh

Fantastic debut film! Kept me on the edge of my seat through the entire story
