This House Isnt a Home
Relic- is slow at first, but ones the psychological horror begins than it gets good. Its a really good film.

The plot: When family matriarch Edna goes missing, her daughter and granddaughter return home to find her. They discover a haunting presence hanging over the home, which is taking over Edna's mind.

Its a good film and would recordmend watching it.

This House Isnt a Home
You Should Have Left- is a really good psychological thriller. Yes its about a normal house that isnt a normal house. From the outside its a normal house, but once inside its different.

The plot: Strange events plague a couple and their young daughter when they rent a secluded countryside house that has a dark past.

I do recordmend watching it.

"This is literary kismet, with screenwriter Truman Capote channeling Henry James—and with a child lead bearing the name of my own daughter, Flora. The story, which takes full measure of the spookiness and unknowability of children, has worked in every format—first James’s novella The Turn of the Screw, then the chamber opera of the same name, and finally this liminal black-and-white film."

"Warning: this is one of the most upsetting books I’ve ever read, but it’s a great one. Set in South Africa, a nation struggling to remake itself in the wake of Apartheid, it tracks a professor’s downfall as he suffers a career-ending scandal followed by a horrific episode in the life of his daughter. It’s a Booker-winning book by a Nobel-winning novelist."

A web of lies, that draws you in.
An alcoholic father, a cheating wife and a beautiful daughter. What could go wrong?

The depth of the main characters is intriguing. The author really paints a solid picture of the main 2 characters and keeps building.
I felt 'alive' reading this.
It brings so many raw topics to mind. It really has you looking at things differently.
