Wish this had ended up in a more ambiguous, or at least less self-consciously metaphorical, place, but The Night House is still one of the most quietly unnerving movies I've seen in years. I especially love the narrative jolts and disconnects. There are some terrific (terrifying) visual gags, and even a few moments of humor. And of course, Hall is magnificent.
Turns out the thing I've been missing from Carpenter's version this whole time was a no-nonsense Hawkesian woman.
