This movie for one, was infinitely better than I first thought it was going to be. See, it was unclear to me what was happening in the beginning. I was almost ready to give up on it about a quarter of the way through the film. Then, the couple seen all these missing people on the farm house's wall. Then they started to get freaked out. Then it kind of rose my interest. All of a sudden this couple are running and fighting for their lives against these hardcore maniacs. These people were crazier that a three P*cker*d billy goat.As these people are trying to fight and get away from these people, I'm still wondering why all these people were missing, and why the couple is even in this situation in the first place. Much more, I'm trying to find out if the people trying to kill them are just plain psychos, or if there's rationality behind it. The ending was one of the biggest twists in a movie I've ever seen. I didn't expect what happened at all. I think the ending of this movie is what kept it from failing (in my point of view). Without giving to much away, I never expected them to be in hell. I'm not going to say why they're in hell, I'm just going to say that they are. I would definitely recommend this movie to horror and suspense lovers alike. I will soon be buying the blu-ray myself. What a twister.

First i was reluctant to see this film, as i thought it was just another hostel type film...to a certain extent it was. it'll make you rethink about getting into a gambling debt with organized crime. either way by the time you get to the cheese grater scene things pick up REAL quick. i must say the ending was almost telegraphed with all the foreshadowing. but they keep it together long enough to hit you in the gut with the very dark menacing and bone chilling ending. and i heavily agree about the look of the film. it's low budget but you'll never know it, because it looks like a major mainstream picture. this should have definitely been a major release.this twisted little flick was a great find..

"Farm House" is somewhat of an interesting movie. It starts off fairly good and just gets better.Once introduced to Samael and Lilith, I thought the movie was going to take a turn into something supernatural, so I was kinda expecting something to happen throughout the movie, but I was kept in suspense. Sure there were lots of thrills and some nice scenes, but never anything supernatural... Not until towards the end. Now, I am not going to give away more than this.The cast was good. Especially Steven Weber and Kelly Hu in the roles of Samael and Lilith, they did a nice job. They were just enough creepy and enough weird. But also the two leading parts were nicely acted out.Throughout the movie it is like you are following two different stories involving the same 2 leading cast. One story where they are at the farm house, and one story dealing with their loss of their child and them struggling with their debt. These two running story lines worked well together, and came together in a nice moment of clarity.Now, this is not a horror movie that will have you screaming and curling in fear. But there is enough suspense and thrills to keep most horror-fans interested.As for the ending, well, it did take that long awaited supernatural twist, but it was a bit too much. But hey, it is only a movie. Despite this ending, the movie was still quite enjoyable. Suitable for a night of staying indoors watching a movie.

I watch a lot of bad horror movies. I go to my local video store, browse the choices and grab a couple for the weekend. They're usually pretty lame but every once in while some random choice ain't so bad. "Farmhouse" falls in to the "ain't so bad" category if you're looking for sadism, torture, and graphic violence.An attractive couple gets kidnapped by another attractive couple who delight in torturing their helpless victims. There's a plot here, but does that really matter if you're in to movies like this? It's a pretty basic formula with the main characters doing the usual stupid things that not only gets them in to this situation but prolongs the torture when they avoid the obvious and/or "freeze" at the plot-necessary points. I don't know why the people that make these things don't get it but I have little sympathy for idiots that fail to take advantage of their opportunities. For instance, if the sadistic, creepy, degenerate villain appears to be incapacitated (but maybe not quite dead) finish the scum off!!! If he manages to resurrect despite his horrific wounds well, I think the idiot that screws up should die.There's nothing special here except for a few torture scenes. A not so clever twist at the end just doesn't work. In fact, it's just plain stupid. It's such an overtly obvious twist that anybody with a bit of intelligence would have come up with something better. And the ending only gets worse since they drag it out beyond any necessary point.It is what it is, and on one level it's just fine. If you're not looking for gore and violence you won't bother with this. The ending is just plain stupid and totally pathetic. It's a bit better then most of the flotsam of this genre but nothing special.
