The House at the End of Time (2013)

Hello to all viewers

I'm not a fan of reviews, but in this case, I really like to recommend this movie to all fan of Guillermo Del Toro, Alejandro Amenábar....

this film is in the line of THE OTHERS, EL ESPINOZA DEL DIABLO...

But but with its own personality

I never see a Venezuelan movie, but I'm very happy to find this, because it's a wonderful, nice acting, beautiful location and a story you don't find the way because it's full of reversal situation...

I hope to see another movies like this, the Venezuelan, Argentina, Mexico, Spain, are the worthy successor of the European and especially the Italian movies of the 70's 80's....

I don't want to tell the story, but you should not miss this movie

Greeting of Switzerland

Fmovies: Let me start out by saying that I don't generally like to watch films in languages other than my own native English. I often find reading subtitles a bit tedious, and feel like it takes away from my film experience, when I'm having to split my attention between the action and the text on the screen. I understand this has undoubtedly caused me to miss out on quite a few really great movies from other countries. I'm glad it did not deter me from this one. I was pulled in right from the beginning, and was so engaged that I forgot all about my silly little hang-up.

WOW. What an EXCELLENT film. A woman is convicted of killing her husband and son in the early 80's, and after 30 years in prison returns to the home where the horrible events took place. With the help of a kind and curious priest, she begins to unravel the mystery of the house, and just what happened there on that fateful day so many years ago. As each piece of the puzzle is subtly revealed, you find yourself confused and somewhat satisfied at the same time. Because, even though you don't know exactly where it all is leading, you can see that it's coming together in just the right order, and drawing you toward a very worthwhile conclusion. As the last few clues fall into place, what has really gone on in that house finally hits you. And, you can't help but be in awe of this incredibly well written story that has actually been completely laid out right in front of you from the beginning.

I can't say enough good things about this film. Good acting. Good character development. Suspense. Twists and turns. Great filming and music that really come together to set a tense, creepy mood throughout. This is a definite must-see.

Prior to watching this film, I thought after reading the synopsis, that it would be another attempt at a horror movie, one more, with an ordinary scenario.

How wrong was I. First of all, it doesn't last for ages before it all starts to unravel and become interesting, and keeps delivering surprises all along.

This film made me reflect on some aspects of life and I shed a few tears, as unexpected as that also was when you're supposed to watch a horror film.

The reasons why I don't give this a 10/10 are that it's a little long in the beginning I think and that even though I abundantly stated that it was surprising, it's more because I've become so used to seeing the same scenario in every other movie that as soon as something slightly innovative come along, I get over enthusiastic, but to be fair, some of the plot could be guessed.

So all in all, a superb movie, that really found resonance in me, because of several other aspects of life you could apply the plot to (realistic aspects of life, of course).

The House at the End of Time fmovies. What initially seems to be just an AMITYVILLE rip-off is in fact an excellent movie that has almost nothing to do with that film. Except the fact that it's about a house LA CASA DEL FIN DE LOS TIEMPOS has a totally different plot, and it's a very good and imaginative one in my perspective!

It's mostly a suspense thriller but it also has an intense dramatic tension in a very well built plot. Along the movie we watch what happened in two different periods, 1981 and 2011, and the ending is absolutely dramatic, but amazing! I appreciated the way this story was built, because it's like a slow burner, creating suspense, and then, in the end, it clarifies everything, in a convincing and remarkable final disclosure.

This movie surprised me a lot because I was expecting an average horror thriller, in the line of AMITYVILLE, as told, but it was a lot better than that, mixing horror, suspense and drama in a fabulous way!

I watched this Venezuelan suspense thriller (claimed to be the first one in this country! If is that so, I have to congratulate them!) in FANTASPORTO - a film festival from my hometown - and I easily score it 9/10! Excellent surprise!

Excellent movie, first Thriller Horror and suspense of Venezuela, an excellent job by the production and direction of this film, I liked a lot, a very good story, leaving the conventional horror, and doing something different.

Ruddy Rodriguez doing an excellent job as "Dulce", the mother of the family is in the house. Proud of this Venezuelan film production. How has grown film production in my country, changing the issues that always spoke in the movies here. A big applause for this Venezuelan movie, it deserve it, great job.

This is the best movie i've ever seen in my country, congratulations.

This should not be placed in the genre of "Horror." This is a science fiction thriller mystery. While hard sci-fi is based on believable technology, soft sci-fi is based on mysterious elements which focus on other things. Think "2001: A Space Odyssey" vs. "The Time Traveler's Wife." This isn't a good movie "considering it is a product of Venezuela." It is a great watch because it is a well directed, realistically performed entertaining sci-fi short story with no plot holes or loose ends. If you feel there is one, watch it again.

Do not go into it expecting a horror film. It's better than that. It's about the mystery of what happens in this house at a time of marital trouble and childhood tragedies. What is it? Why is it there? How is it there? Find out.
