27. Hell House LLC: The Abaddon Hotel (Tubi)

Well. I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna watch the Hell House LLC trilogy before the new movie comes out. But you know what? I think this is better than the first one.

Hell House LLC 2 is about a new group of people going to investigate the hotel. This branches off of a talk show where the mayor, a member from the team doing the documentary in the first film, and a hot shot investigator who doesn't buy into it discuss the validity of the evil of the Abaddon Hotel.

So alright, I felt the first one was just random BS strung together in a narrative and I wasn't a huge fan. I thought it had good ideas, just a rocky execution. I think this one resolves most of those issues and provides a much more clean narrative while also bringing in more LORE.

Like I legitimately feel that this one has a pretty good story overall. It gives more purpose to the hotel, more story of what is going on there, and it doesn't do it in a way that ruins the mystique. It makes sense and by the end I loved it.

What I also loved was that they also sprinkled in shorter scenes to help flesh out that LORE as well. Just short stuff of other people who tried to get in and what happened. It all serves a purpose to help expand upon what we already know about the hotel.

Like I don't care about your dopey found footage random spookiness. I want story mixed in there too, and this delivered that. Of course, I don't think it's amazing by any stretch. We're still working on a found footage movie that doesn't break any barriers or do anything exceptionally well.

What's important is that since they did decide to make a full on universe with this series, is that I understand that universe now and know what in the world is happening there. And I can invest in it more, for better or worse.

So props to Hell House LLC 2. You turned your alright idea into a very solid one.
