Reviews
|
IndieWire -
For all of its clumsiness and rookie missteps (which continue through the film’s gut-punch of a coda), His House is an urgent and spine-tingling ghost story about what it means to begin anew in a home that may not want you to live in it.
|
|
Empire -
One of the best British horror debuts in years, populated by well-drawn characters and a particularly nasty spirit. If you get a chance to move into His House, take it.
|
|
The Observer (UK) -
Genuine jump scares are bolstered by the film’s spooky sound design, as well as terrific performances from Dirisu and Mosaku, whose terror is palpable.
|
|
IGN -
Tightly wound on almost every front, His House packs an enormous emotional punch even once its scares grow stale.
|
|
Slant Magazine -
Throughout, Remi Weekes forcefully, resonantly ties the film’s terror to the inner turmoil of his characters.
