good indie horror
5 September 2013
The Yankee Pedlar Inn is a failing hotel. Only two employees remain for the limited guests of the soon-to-close establishment. Maybe it's the quiet nightshift, but it seems that the old ghost stories are coming to pass. Sara Paxton and Pat Healy form a funny duo. Sara Paxton especially creates a fun goofy character highlighted by her slapstick attempt to throw out the trash.

Ti West has created a very effective indie horror. I do have to warn people that there is limited gore and no CG. This is strictly an atmospheric isolation-horror. This is not a big blood-splattering affair or filled with imaginative visuals. It's more of a throw-back ghost story.
