If you're patient enough to give this a

If you're patient enough to give this a chance to get where its going, its definitely worth the ride. Great acting, genuinely creepy and lavishly shot, the Black House maintains a pervading theme of urban decay and a sense of manic dread beneath its offbeat and sporadically comedic exterior.

Great, very creative idea! But, a 2 hour runtime really diminishes the effectiveness...

I honestly think that the idea for this movie is great, I really do! But in my lowly and wretched opinion, if you are going to build to the kind of intense climax that this movie does, I truly feel that you really need to pick up the pace considerably.

I DO like the way the story starts, almost whimsically in the office, even with kind of a jaunty soundtrack, showing us the inner office goings on to set the scene for what is going to happen. I think that is just fine. But, for what ultimately turns out to be a fairly straight forward Slasher type film, 2 hours I feel just really kills the pacing. Now, if the filmmakers had all kinds of really creative twists and turns plot wise to keep us really engaged, then sure, a longer runtime is perfectly fine. But, really what we are talking about here, although cleverly done overall, are simply STYLISTIC choices that honestly drag out the film way longer than it should be, and I think it kills a lot of the momentum. If you trimmed out about 20 minutes or so and tightened up the pacing, I think that would REALLY keep the audience much more engaged and swept along by the action.

So, I do really like the film and it's very clever premise, I just genuinely feel that instead of drawing out all these audio/visual little touches over and over, it would have been FAR more effective and packed a lot more of a punch if they had taken out a lot of that redundancy and just kept the excitement level higher building to what likely would have been a more heightened, effective ending.
