Kylie es una joven delincuente pillada in fraganti por enésima vez. La condenan a un destino, en principio, apacible: un arresto domiciliario de un año en casa de su madre. Pero la mala relación con su progenitora, la falta de feeling con su padrastro y la presencia de un espíritu de oscuro pasado no se lo pondrán tan fácil. (Ediciones 79)

Housebound is absolutely different from Peter Jackson's early films, but at the same time, it continues the excellent tradition of New Zealand horror movies, which are intriguing, entertaining, and distinct from others. They're going their own way, and that's a very good thing. In their case, it definitely paid off and Housebound is a very pleasant surprise that is shot with great professionalism.

I was surprised that such a film was made by creators from New Zealand. The setting didn’t suit the story very well. The only place where you could find proper haunted houses for this purpose might be old England. Here, the woman in the lead role annoyed me terribly from the beginning, which was probably on purpose. In any case, the plot did not salvage anything, so the only thing I had left to watch was the filmmaking itself, which was fortunately not that bad.

I really don't know what was entertaining about this film. I didn't laugh once, I didn't even smile. I'm actually throwing in a third star for the decently action packed ending, otherwise the film let me down big time. 50%
