After watching this movie several times it was investing and uninteresting at the same time. There is something unclear about the story because of several plot holes. One in particular when the main character's friend turns out to be aligned with the deranged lady and grounds keeper, but there isn't any build up. Nothing is mentioned about that girl. Could she have pretended to kill the lady she stabbed? No, but it was clear that she did. The characters were not interesting to watch, and it leaves you not caring what happens to them. The performance the actor's gave wasn't too bad, but a little stiff at some parts, when the two lead actresses are about to go check out the abandon house, they don't feel really vested. And maybe they did take it a bit too seriously, it was good overall. Not saying the actors did not do a good job, but it's close to being monotone.
While the premise of a mystery inside a haunted house is a good set up for a traditional horror movie, it is not without its flaws. The whole story is not entirely about the house, but on what is going on in a cornfield, which makes sense, given the name is pretty self-explanatory. Either way, the movie tends to focus more on the suspense of what is going on in the corn field, maybe there is supernatural elements taking place, but nothing is explored entirely about what is going? Why is this happening? And who is really pulling the string. Another thing I want to make notice of. This movie uses a lot of cues to emphasize suspense. Not to sound nitpicking, but the music does not fit the tone, a little, but not at all, because it would probably fit a more undercover C.I.A. hidden treasure type of movie. And yet with its faults, in my opinion, it was a good indie flick. It was fun to watch, and would recommend it to anyone I know.
