The Night House (2020)
Directed by David Bruckner
Quick Hit
The Night House rips like a head-trip horror pieceāelegant, sad, with zero interest in comforting you.
Full Take
The Night House leans hard into psychological horror energy, and David Bruckner keeps the tone elegant without letting the movie drift. It balances style and ugliness the right way, letting the mood get under your skin before the worst of it lands. Messy in spots, still worth the ride.

This one actually worked for me.
Thereās a lot to like here, but also a lot that holds it back from being great.
