Please don't spend money on this.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This film is "awful". I cannot believe I just sat through this. There is quite literally ZERO script. House of Dust is like the worst improv you have ever seen. There is literally nothing I can say about this film will make this any better for you.The review on here by Delia Berlin is "blatantly" written by the director or the writer. It is "that" obvious guys..... sorry to call you out.I have literally NO IDEA AT ALL of how this film got any funding with this screenplay. Atrocious.The actress playing the lead character is obviously very talented, and was the 'only' reason I watched the film to the end.The script didn't seem to include any writing for any of the other characters, so the film seemed reliant on continual drone-like music, which drowned out every single scene. Any film with continual music, should be an indicator that it is a bad film, because there is nothing else it can offer.You really shouldn't watch this if you see this comment. If you have read this comment and then gone onto watch House of Dust? then you know why you're feeling like a complete idiot right now.

I love anchor bay entertainment! But like most other distribution companies, they run out of money, and I guess "House of dust" is what you get when that occurs..First off, the story of this movie. Once I got the main idea of the story, a huge face palm was planted on my face. In this case, the story of this movie is clichéd, and has been seen millions, of billions of times before, delivering absolutely nothing new in the sense of entertainment. The so called "Legend" is a massive cliché that has portrayed in many, many other films, as well as the characters, location, etc.Next, the killer, or foe in this tale. One word, once again, cliché. The killed has been portrayed in many others films! Yet again I say! And in this movie, the killer wasn't even executed all that well, making him seem foolish, and stupid in a way that drags this film deeper then it already is..Lastly, the cinematography, sound, overall execution, and characters. The characters, or in this case main characters were, like the rest of this movie clichéd. They were a bunch of collage kids that listened to the strong, "better" guy of the group, getting themselves into trouble, and DEATH. The cinematography of the film was shallow. Some shots were flawed, making it look terrible. Some of the lighting, as well made the scenes look dull, and misplaced. Overall depressing - like when it wasn't meant to. Moving along, almost everything of the film was reliant of CGI, and it was horrible looking. They used CGI from fire, to a shattering light bulb. All of which was horrible, misplaced looking. Finally, the sound. Most of the soundtrack didn't fit! Some music sequences sounded like action when noting really was happening, throwing us viewers off track! And concluding, the scares. Horrible! There were none, no tension, thrills, nothing. Once we got anything, thought, it was lame, horrid jump scares! No! In conclusion. This is a bad, bad, bad low budget film that tried to be more then it was, leading in an ultimate downfall! This movie failed from beginning, to end! More money wasted! Stay away from this one, I honestly have no intentions of recommending this to anyone, for it's another uneventful, cliché fest that angers, instead pleasing.

This is a movie that is for sure good as a cheap rental. It needed more action/a faster pace at certain points of the movie though to make it better for more people and to make it likable for a wider audience. Also with a bigger budget they could have had some better special effects but what they did have didn't look bad on screen. In regards to the story I liked the idea of how this spirit came about possessing people. There also was an interesting back story even if it wasn't too complex but it was well set out for us at the beginning. I also think the ending was interesting in that the spirit found a host which it should be able to control easier and mold into what he needs the person to become so he can create more havoc on the earth eventually. Definitely a second movie could be made and be entertaining. No way this movie was a 1 like someone said on the IMDb message boards for this movie and yeah it wasn't a blockbuster 8+ movie but it was watchable and enjoyable for the most part. Also in regards to the acting for this it was solid if not spectacular. I have seen much, much worse and the acting did not make me want to shut off the movie. As for specific acting Inbar Lavi is smoking hot. I don't think people are going to mind seeing more of her on the big screen. She delivered her lines fine and it would have been interesting to see if this cast could have handled a more fast paced script which is what this movie should have had more of. Hopefully we will see this in a sequel. To be honest I can't remember the last person in a movie that I said was smoking hot before Inbar Lavi in a long while. A new pretty face for the movies? Maybe.I hate to put a score out of 10 on this and so I won't if I don't have to while posting this review.

Beautifully shot ghost story full of spooky moon lit scenes of northeast Connecticut. Recognizing scenes of the wonderful campus of Eastern Connecticut State University is a special treat for Willimantic area fans. Inspired by a real story of cremation remains of patients found at an abandoned asylum for the "mentally insane" this fantasy often gets too close to reality for comfort. A.D. Calvo has a knack for contrasting beauty and horror, both through images and sounds. This is not a movie to watch alone. In the end, the boundaries of mental health and sanity blur as fantasy and reality trade places. As always, questions are answered as new questions remain.
