if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

TRASHHOUSE is an incredibly cheap looking and boring indie horror flick from Britain, it pains me to say. It's another film with a Big Brother-style plot in which a group of contestants are locked in a house and then constantly filmed, before being assailed by various supernatural entities. This kind of set-up was done much better in the likes of My Little Eye et al and it doesn't help that the execution is extremely amateurish here, laughably so in fact.

I watch a lot of low budget independent movies and am sick to the stomach of the argument "if you lower your expectations" and "it's low budget so you have to cut it some slack" or "take it for what it is" to support a positive review blatantly written by someone involved in the the film, or someone involved with someone involved in the film.Trash House is bad. Really bad. It's so bad it will actually offend you. It certainly offended me. Everything that can possibly go wrong in a movie is present here. The script makes no sense. The acting is bad. The SFX are atrocious. The sets that can be found, like a hotel room, are built (I watched the behind the scenes). The main set, the house of the title, is a blatant tiny house on a normal housing estate instead of some hi-tech monstrosity. So even on an economic level of where and what to spend the money on the film is a bust.It'll make you feel like you want to scrub your skull out with soap.

I hadn't heard much about this movie, so when I came to see it, it was hype free. Which I think served it better. i had no expectations I just wanted a bit of a laugh. I got one. Though their are weak points to the story, and afew plot holes to boot, some people have missed the point watching this. There are at least two damning reviews on this site - one by a filmmaker I respect - but I have to disagree with his view.This film does not take itself seriously and was intended to get the same reaction from the audience. The "bad" acting was deliberately hammy because that was the idea. And you have to award points to any director who manages to turn a show into a weapon in on scene. I loved that moment.All in all, not a great movie. But it served its purpose and entertained me for the night. Lighten up people! Amber Moelter was wonderful and Richard was good too. Bond villain!

First off, I commend Pat Higgins on having the balls to write, produce and direct his own feature film. For this, and this alone, Mr. Higgins got an extra star. Having said that, I had read a lot of good things about this movie on the net, and despite a promising start, it failed to live up to the expectations and hype that those reviews generated. Unfortunately for all concerned, Higgins seems to have spunked what little funds he obviously did have on a cast and crew who simply fall short of the mark - and by some distance. Leading lady Amber Moelter's performance is hit-and-miss and she appears to have been cast for no other reason that the fact that she's American but her performance is nowhere near as bad as her "leading man" Tom Wontner - a truly wooden turn from someone who seemingly has a very high opinion of himself. Check out his official website for proof. The fact he calls himself "Tom Wontner - Actor" on his website - yes, I was sad enough to check out these bozos if only to see if they were real or not - could be worthy of prosecution under the trades description act. Likewise Hannah Speller - awful - and Oli Wilkinson - another hit-and-miss performance.On the plus side, Sam Burke is terrific and Richard Collins rocks as the bad guy while some of the minor players are quite impressive, but it's not enough. Add to this the poor quality of sound, poor cinematography, a lack of props, some really crap special effects and a set that has been lifted out of an old folks home and you get the picture.To end on a positive, the script was witty and the idea was neat. Just a shame that the execution was so lousy. Next time, steer clear of the CGI guys.
