At Granny's House (2015)

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

I look thru the other reviews for this movie, and it just blows me away to hear so many negative comments about this film. It really makes me wonder if they watched this movie or not! Because of all the "haters" out there, I would like to give you my comments, because i HAVE watched this movie, and really enjoyed it.Acting: very strong, overall. The guy who played granny's son is not the greatest, but he goes away after ten minutes. "Granny" is an amazing actress who really shines, as is Rebecca. Overall the cast was very strong.Story: Very interesting. I don't want to give anything away, but i think this story has a very contemporary feel to it, and addresses a major social problem.Suspense: Yeah, it's creepy!Technical: I love the way this movie was shot--lots of interesting angles and lighting.Music: really good, complimented the imagery very well.To be honest, i think some people just like to criticize--i have no idea how anyone could give this movie less than 6 or 7 stars, and to give it one star is atrocious!

I can't even believe some of these outlandish reviews of an, at BEST, mediocre film. I've seen high school productions more complex than this! To put this film in the same stratosphere as Hitchcock is laughable. Moreover, the "fantastic" camera-work would have achieved better results with a smartphone or dare I say, a Super 8. Not to mention, the 4 1/2 star Amazon Prime reviews from the 15 people (men) who reviewed it, clearly were only aroused by the unbearably awkward soft-core porn scenes. I WILL say, however, the glue or better yet, paste that hardly held this movie together was Glenda Morgan Brown. I happen to thoroughly enjoy indie films. In fact, I mostly prefer them. When you consider some of the BEST (in my opinion) indie films such as "Donnie Darko", "Lost In Translation", and of course "Reservoir Dogs", "At Granny's House" lacks substance and effort.

Good creepy fun - a suspenseful tale that takes aim at the idea of a "sweet little old lady," with strong performances particularly from Rachel Alig and Glenda Morgan Brown. Writer-Director Les Mahoney has a feel for Hitchcockian atmosphere and characterizations. Working on a modest budget he achieves some of the tension missing from bigger Hollywood features.Mahoney himself plays a love interest for Alig's caretaker character and his entrance into the film brings additional complications.The script is loaded up with some great twists, including one final turn at the end. Enjoy!

This is a taut character driven thriller that reminds me of the great Hitchcock films of the past.The acting is great, especially Glenda Morgan Brown as Granny, and Rachel Alig as Rebecca, the caretaker with a dark secret. These ladies really rock the screen and own their parts.But the acting is solid throughout: Les Mahoney as Ted is very good, and the "king of indie horror" Bill Oberst, Jr, plays against type as a relentless private detective. Their fight scene is memorable.The story is very interesting, and there are some great twists and turns--especially at the end! Indeed, the movie looks and sounds really good, and the images and the music work very well together.Disregard the haters who wrote bad reviews of this film--some people just have to hate, right? Enjoy this special indie thriller.
