Grandmother's House (1989)
REVIEWER RATING:
6/10
I'm a huge fan of 80's horror, especially that of the slasher genre, so I try to stay on top of what's good. Since so much was produced in the decade I often miss some hidden gems along the way, which is the case with Grandmother's House. The film plays off as more of a mystery for the first half then slowly blends itself into a slasher, which sadly, is where the film also begins to lose many of the positive aspects it had in the begriming and replace them with plot-holes, cliches, and predictability.
like the movie as much as they did, I did like how it approached the tired sub-genre a bit differently.
as the night grows longer strange things begin to occur. Once one of the team turns up missing, they soon realize that the place is indeed haunted, and its spectral occupants aren't friendly.
