I've taken a few days away from n the movies after going to see the final films in the Hampton Roads 48 Hour Short Film contest. There were actually a few that could make cool features. But, now time to get back at it. Today, I did kick back and watch something interesting the 2023 entry Hell House llc Origins: Carmichael Manor.
Plot: A group of cold case investigators stay at the Carmichael Manor. After four nights, the group was never heard from again. What is discovered on their footage is even more disturbing than anything found on the Hell House tapes.
When I saw this was coming out, I wasn't sure what to expect. I really liked the first one, but the two sequels left a lot to be desired and did not match the overall promise of the first one. Fortunately, this one is so much better than this two entries. This one definitely delivers where this cime up short with an interesting story, some tensiom and atmosphere, and a few decent scares. Of course, the characters and performances are uneven and there were some head scratching moments, but it was a lot better than the other sequels. It may not be as good as the original, but this one does a good job of building into the lore and keeping it entertaining.
