Current Events > Hell House LLC was the biggest waste of a horror setup I've seen. Spoilers.

(+) Yeah! (+)

The entire movie is centered around the opening night of a haunted house attraction that goes instantly wrong. The first ten minutes are found footage of the tour. Arriving at the basement door a horde of people are screaming to run, and it honestly built up some effective dread with whatever the hell was going on down there. I thought they effectively built up enough atmosphere around the opening night that I was excited to see the reveal.

The rest of the movie is a series of tapes from the team who run it, and frankly not a whole lot happens except some disjointed cliche scares. But "movie rules" wise, everything seemed alright. After over an hour of buildup, we get to the footage of the basement from opening night. I leaned forward in my chair.

The security guard they hired runs out. They reveal there's a tall man in the corner of the room who isn't an actor, in robes. The actress, chained up on the wall, is yelling a lot. The man approaches her. The film cuts. The film cuts back in, she's on the ground alone. a cgi portal to hell opens underneath her. The end.

Dude.
