Trying to exorcise her worst memories, Claire returns to the foster home where she witnessed a terrible massacre years ago. Capitalizing on its history, a mysterious showman has turned the infamous mansion into a haunted-house attraction. Claire and her friends soon realize that a demonic force has taken over the building and they've been locked inside with a malevolent spirit who wants to perpetrate another mass murder.
A little girl steps into a house to Prove to her friends how tough she is. Inside she finds the scene of a massacre. 14 years later and seriously troubled, her therapist advises her to journey back to the house, in the hopes that it finally puts the events behind her. She only wants to act and at class, an eccentric man appears and offers her a job at his newest attraction, Dark House, aka the site of the massacre.
Once in the house, it does not take long for things to get started. Somehow, as ridiculous as it sounds, the spirits infect the computers running the house and as the night goes on, she finds herself trapped, with solving the mystery being her only way out. (But of course not before they kill the black guy)
When they convince the black guy to go, he says, "I better not regret it."
Spoiler: He Regrets it.
Fun Fact: He's also the nerd.
Here lies the token. He died as he lived...Negro.
Dark House is like Westworld (1979), a movie in which the programs go crazy and actually harm humans. It is an interesting concept, but the film starts to run on fumes towards the end. It is definitely gorier than I expected, but that was a pleasant surprise.
Tangent question: If these low budget films actually spent less money on gore and more on writers, would the films be better?
Out of Ten? 6
Violence? Yes
Explosions? No
Nudity? No
