SyFy Weekly: House Of Bones (2010) - Movie Mobsters
February 26 2010
I don’t know how it’s possible, but this was actually scarier than “The Hills Have Eyes” for me. Laugh out loud. Scoff even. I don’t blame you. I just watched the remake for the first time this week, and even though it was pretty well received I didn’t dig it at all. So here I am prepared for something even worse than that, considering it’s a SyFy original essential horror movie, but it was campy, fun, and even at moments eerie. This is why I watch the SyFy originals, because every once in awhile you find a gem, or even just a fun two hours to spend watching something maybe meaningless but entertaining.
The story starts with a spoof Ghost hunters. Some ghost hunting group with a TV show are busy investigating supposed haunting’s and have acquired a medium on their reality show. The newest investigation brings them to a house that for hundreds of years has developed a prestige for evil bad things. No one has lived in it for years, but then again people are terrified of its reputation. This is what watching SyFy is all about. A movie that doesn’t take itself so seriously that you are forced to take it seriously as well. From the first scene it’s clear there is a tongue in cheek element happening but it still remains true to a creepy mood that is actually pretty intense immediately. I would say the first 30-40 minutes of the film actually has an interesting development of a typical plot, charismatic characters, and a slow and deliberate play on the mystery that definitely incites an eerie discomfort.
