There's Someone Inside Your House (2021)
Based on a book I haven't read. A masked killer stalks students with secrets. There are intentional actions. No one's limiting their social circle due to covid. Malign activities are afoot! This was not fraught with danger as a teen boy who looks about 30 is meanaced. There are no consequential actions.
Nobody is fearful. Nobody opts for safe choices. This was a cast full of names. James Wan produced this. The killer does mask making. More students show up looking 30. The abyss looms. This was not realistic. This has an artificial edifice. There is no grip on reality. This flounders. There is no talent or sad ambivalence. This was tawdry and disheartening. This has no intensity.
This was not exhilarating. This was ridiculous as a devious killer lurks. There is innocent accidentality. There are hazardous times and unfazed students. There is no apprehension. This was not fabulous. There are arcane moments. This was not marvellous or quixotic.
People have anger episodes and smoke pot. There are no behaviour expectations. The school bad boy is not liked. There is no visionary intensity. A student has secrets and fun with friends. There is no rapture. The characters are unimaginable idiots. There is no positivity or euphoria or pared back social lives.
There is no fervour or enthusiasm or exultation or intensity. The mystery of why 1 girl lives with her grandmother and has flashbacks is not interesting. A 'good girl' is exposed in church. There is persistent fallacy which is exposed. There is blood, copious blood and bitterness and caustic words. One is repulsed. Nobody is unthreatened. This was a calamity full of mumbling.
This fails spectacularly and is not adequate. There is no deprivation. The cast are irrepressible jerks. There are major lifetime events ignored. This was intolerable. Terrible horrific events take place. The school bad boy is the brother of a local cop. A girl is unwilling. Nobody has vigilance. There is suffering and sadness and cruel plans. This was not compellingly raw.
There is mawkishness and disturbing events. Nobody is amicable. The killer relentlessly pursues oafish people. Things are chaotic. This town is not a liberal bastion. There are woes and socially confident jerks. There are parties and sex as a killer lurks. There is no nuturing or parents. There is only 1 uber driver in town.
There is hostility and an abusive regime and menacing and misconduct. This was horrific stuff and there is a peculiar reverence for bullying the school bad boy while the rich developer's son is dysfunctional to no comeback. People are obsequious, gullible fools and people are charlatans. There is stupidity and guns and the killer is obvious but no one notices.
People who are dodgy are somehow seen as beyond criticism, deserving of deference and always to be trusted. There is no terrifying feeling. Nobody protects themselves. People trust others when they should not. There is mistreatment, bad people and horror shows. This town fosters a toxic environment.
This leaves you unsatisfied. This was not spectacular. Nobody is desperate. There are turbulent times and infamous actions. Nobody grabbles with anything and nothing is critically appraised. There are causal revelations and ranting and raving. This was bad. People have plights. This was not plausible. This was paltry and not enduring. This does not inspire. This was not essential. This was not measured.
This whole thing does not make any sense. There is corn and divisive feelings and angry people and this was all deeply illogical. Interest is soon declining. This was eagerly anticipated but it was not delirious or masterful just dull. This was clumsy and indifferent. There is wrath. This was not enjoyable. There is scepticism and terrible strain. There is an unmistakable sense that this is the worst.
The notorious bad boy is ill used. The wacky boy is not charmingly eccentric. There are disputes and this was not pragmatic or ideological. This was completely incompatible with sense. Nobody does anything practical. The highly dangerous killer walks around in his killing outfit and nobody says or does anything.
There are strange events and painful and lasting impacts and arrogant dismissal of sense. There is a fervour for cancellation. The final girl turns out to have pushed someone into a fire. There is no remorse. There is tactless flippancy. This was absolutely daft. There are no dramatic developments. There is no assuredness. This was not complex. There are morality tests. People have the worst instincts. This was not worthy. Events are disputed.
People are not totally beyond repute. Things are in disarray. People are recast in new lights. This was disappointing. There are no prudent guardians. People do unwise things. All this takes place unnoticed in a small Nebraska town. Things get fractious and people are indifferent and impervious. A corn festival is held provoking a showdown and huge confrontation in a corn maze.
There are concerns and unhappy people and serious effects. The climax is unlikely. People take an uncritical and laissex faire approach to fire. This deserves to be ridiculed. This does not fascinate. Who drives a car into a burning corn maze? How can they breathe in the fire? Where is all the smoke? The killer is revealed. People walk off stab wounds. There is a motive rant and the killer is a fixed point the social order.
This was horrible, terrible and not complex. The killer was struggling to contain his rage. There are generational consequences and unrest and social consequences. Stability is restored. There is disinterest and resentment. This foregoes logic. There is meagre interest. This was an unflinching effort. People grin uneasily. This was a letdown.

Let Us Prey (2014)
A UK/Irish horror. A stranger shows up in a police station. This was bad. So much violence.
