Synopsis:
Samantha (Donahue) is struggling to make ends meet while attending college and afford her new apartment. It desperation she takes a babysitting job for a couple out in the country. The job isn't what she expected and the house holds secrets that may tie into the unprecedented eclipse happening at midnight.
Thoughts:
Director West (The Roost, Cabin Fever 2) certainly makes House of the Devil have a 70's feel even thought it's firmly planted in the 80's time-wise and with stars like Noonan, Woronov and Wallace you can't help but think it's a bit of a love letter to the grind if the 70's. I kept getting the vibe of Bava's Lisa and the Devil while watching it. Great fun for those who don't mind a retro homage.
Final Thought:
See It!
