Flimsy story, almost comedic
While this story was extremely engaging for its genre and content, it started off with the mystery of a psychological thriller and ended up becoming like a 1970's hammer horror. It couldn't hold itself in the end and the description of the "thing" reminded me of a Sam Raimi style boring gorefest. A bit of a disappointment after 14 hours of listening.

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.

Psychological Thriller?
Yorgos Lanthimos writes and directs strange, off-the-wall cinema. The Lobster is par for the course. Colin Farrell stars as a man looking for love in all the wrong places (ironic, I know). Rachel Weisz is excellent as the female lead opposite of Farrell. There is a ton to like here, but it is an odd experience.

Twisted
A True Masterpiece of Psychological Horror
I am sadly disappointed to see this film so unappreciated as I truly believe it is nothing less of a masterpiece. From the carefully painted scenes to the perfectly executed acting this film holds nothing but love in my heart as it captures the true twisted outlook of today's world, carefully balancing racial ideas that would make many uncomfortable while hiding themes throughout the whole picture that keeps you watching again and again. When this film first came out I went to see it three times unable to get enough of this twisted, psychological thriller. This film is not for the faint of heart or those who get uncomfortable at the mention of racial topics. This is a film for those who enjoy tackling hard topics and are unafraid to face the truly twisted truths of the world.

Absolutely give it a go.
Contains spoilers, click to show
If you are not already acquainted with this series, and you are a fan of horror and/or psychological thriller fiction, this is an absolutely perfect place to start. It is written in parts, detailing Asakawa’s investigation of a set of mysterious murders and the discovery of a far greater curse. No part is so long as to drag on needlessly, though some are rather short.

This psychological horror movie was pretty good. Decent acting and cinematography. The storyline played out well enough, though quite a bit of it was unbelievable. That the kids went along with so much was hard to accept, but the villain was played well. It moved along rather slowly at first but heightened to a pretty intense climax. Overall, for my fellow horror/ thriller fans, this one is worth a watch!
