This was actually really good! A good amount of scares and some laugh out load moments too. Eugene was unexpected! Just an all around fun movie!

What an awesome surprise this turned out to be! A very funny story about a woman sentenced to move back home to live under the supervision of her goofy mother. The problem is that there's something else living there that wants her attention. This is more dark comedy than Horror, but it has a few scary moments. I found the first 2/3 of this movie to be perfect. It has a sly sense of humor and growing suspense about what's happened in the house. It gets knocked down a couple of notches because the final third reveals the antagonist to be mostly disappointing. Morgana O'Reilly is the stand-out. She's tough and timid, pretty and gritty. The rest of the cast is spot-on, too. I don't think there's anyway "Housebound" can be watched and not enjoyed. This is a movie that I would recommend to anyone.
