31 Days 0f Horror (Films) - Day 11

 HOUSE ON WILLOW STREET - streaming on AMC+

This multi-genre mash-up has its moments, but overall ends up just being ho-hum.

The practical effects are pretty decent, but sadly are marred by some seriously cheesy digital components (what the hell is the fascination with long, saliva drenched tongues writhing around like snakes in horror films?).

The story, centered around a kidnapping, starts out promisingly enough, but soon gets bogged down with murky, half-assed exposition (or lack thereof) and underdeveloped and well-worn tropes.

Then again, if you dig low-budget, SyFy Channel styled action horror, this might be in your wheelhouse…
