Amateur hour - The Last House review by AM
Apart from one or two inspired moments this film has the hallmarks of a poor student project (even students can be creative).
There's little back story and a narrative which is full of holes, unexplained causes and consequences. Washed out colour looks like an attempt to add grit and a range of camera styles and lighting confuses the atmosphere. No real story. Hitching a ride on the bandwagon of revenge movies - not coming close to tension or threat. Waste of time, waste of money. I will add that the actors have potential but not with this director.
Again no subtitles for those of us with hearing issues.

No surprises here. - The Last House review by NP
Written and directed by Sam Farmer, this film involves a recent widow (Camille Keaton) – and occasionally her equally resolute daughter – and her fight against the sons of a local extortioner. That’s about it as far as the story goes.
My favourite aspect of this is the level of most of the performances, in which the actors go to town to let us know how thoroughly despicable they are, particularly Scott Peeler as Wayne McMahon.
As Marsha, Keaton begins the story as a gun-wielding no-nonsense taker, and that’s how she stays. Little progresses in this story, and with an equally thin pay-off, it doesn’t make for a hugely rewarding experience. My score is 5 out of 10.
