LeonLouisRicci Driving this indie film is the "Devil" sent me to collect your soul story. The white-suited silver tongued Dude with the well worn doctor's bag is a pulp-fiction icon. So we have a blood-letting that is neither surprisingly sordid or unusually gruesome.It is all done matter of fact with a sermon like accompaniment of Southern Preacher platitudes and ironic overtones. Nothing here is exceptionally creepy or scary and is not profound just functionary. There is very little suspense and even less that is horrifying. One is reminded of a tale from the dark side or an E.C. Comic adaptation without the twist ending or a satisfactory denouement. This movie is all surface with no penetration into a warped mind that seems to be the point of it all. Only a home (is where the heart pump is) invasion that clicks off the victims in a predictable pecking order.
thleen This movie was awful. There weren't even a few good moments to recommend. I've just come off of The Innkeepers and a few other non-horror good movies, but I couldn't even follow this one. They try for character development and then just drop it. They bring in a revenge character, but never really explain it. Even after they do, it doesn't make sense. The whole thing is a mess, it's not scary, it's not anything. Maybe the story didn't work, but the cast (especially the stranger) does not work. Very depressing waste of time. Not a horror, not scary, nothing. But, I saw the Innkeepers and that was good. It all measures out.
manjodude Hmm...I'm in half mind to recommend this movie. Bleeding House has some really shocking moments that left my skin cold, but there're also moments that left me really confused too.Ideal location & house for a horror flick, and the score is haunting too.Patrick Breen as the house guest(& religious fanatic) Nick is top-notch, and the life of this movie. Rest of the cast is not far behind, especially Alexandra Chando as Gloria, the loony daughter in the house and also Nina Lisandrello does a fine job as Lynn, the girlfriend of Gloria's brother.Now, lot of viewers have criticized that the movie does not offer enough explanation as to why Gloria acts psychotic. But I really don't mind that as what I look for in any movie is just entertainment, not common sense :p Does the movie creep me, inspire me, move me or lifts my spirit? that's what I look for. Even so, I cannot fathom certain things like what happens to Lynn in the end. She simply disappears towards the finale of the flick and we don't know why except perhaps for the script writer. Maybe he forgot too :)Verdict: I'd have given this movie a 7/10 because of the chill factor in some scenes. However, I'll settle for 6 because the plot doesn't feel complete to me at couple of places. And ya, I've decided now - you can dump this :-)
siddharma My standards for horror movies in general are pretty low. Usually, I am the only person who enjoys a "bad movie" while the rest of the world is utterly disappointed... but the tables turned when I watched The Bleeding House.For the most part, the acting was horrible. In particular, I was expecting Alexandra Chandro, who supposedly played the lead female character, to deliver something half-decent... but this was not the case. I use the word "supposedly" because no matter how much her character was supposed to contribute to the story, her significance fell totally flat. It seemed as though the main character was played by the weakest actress in the bunch. Way too amateur. If not for the actress' IMDb profile, I would have guessed that they randomly picked a girl off the street and gave her less than 5 minutes to read the script.The story was not as original as other reviews here make you think. I was bored the entire time.In fact, the only reason I watched the whole movie was because I spent money for it. In retrospect, even that was a mistake.
