House by the Lake: Lackluster at best
14 October 2017
This horror thriller tells the story of a couple who move to a beautiful house beside a lake with their 10yr old autistic daughter.

They hire a nanny to assist them with the struggles of having such a high maintenance child but when the kid starts taking stories of her imaginary friend The Fishman too seriously it becomes questioned whether there is more to the story.

Sadly this is one of those films where nothing really takes place until literally the last 5 minutes and it leaves the film feeling somewhat incomplete.

The concept isn't terrible, it just feels like it needed padding out more and in its current form simply isn't that entertaining.

The Good:

Finale

The Bad:

Feels incomplete

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

If your child is missing a logical place to check is the dryer
