The House of the Devil
Directed by Ti West
A stranger lures a babysitter to a house with an unusually large sum of money. But when she arrives, Samantha doesn’t find any kids. Just a large and very creepy house, that may not be as empty as it seems. Indie horror director Ti West (THE INNKEEPERS) made his mark with this terrifying ‘80s throwback, featuring cult horror legends like Dee Wallace (THE HOWLING), Mary Woronov (NIGHT OF THE COMET), plus Greta Gerwig - before she hit it big. You’ll never bop around listening to headphones in an empty house again after watching what happens to Samantha. Contains violence and gore.

Overall worth watching, but would have benefited from being about 20 minutes shorter.
Great story, excellent scares. Feels like a 1970s great horror flick:)
One of the best horror flicks I’ve seen! The acting and casting are spot-on, capturing that authentic ‘80s feel flawlessly. It’s incredibly creative, unlike anything I’ve watched before. Though it’s a slow burn, the payoff is totally worth it. And that ending? Absolutely intense, especially the final gripping 10 minutes.
i would have swore this movie is from the 80's if I didn't know the background of it. Love this film so far.
really liked it
