Critics Consensus

Recycling convoluted mythology, lethargic plotting, and flat characters into an overlong slog, Hell House LLC: Lineage limps to an exasperating and scare-deficient finale.

1.5/4

The overwritten plotting drags down any attempt to care about what’s happening or to get lost in the terror.

Hell House LLC transitions into traditional narrative filmmaking, expanding the increasingly dense and convoluted Abaddon lore in a way that’s unwelcoming to newcomers. In the process, it also loses its atmospheric edge and ability to scare.

If Lineage is actually the Hell House LLC finale then I can’t think of a horror series with a more infuriating, uninspiring, going-against-what-came-before climax.

The only good things about this movie, other than it finally ends, are the use of an unsettling clown and two lead actresses who have more than one emotion in their repertoire.

It’s got some excellent scares.

An overlong letdown, with effective stand-alone setpieces (involving the animate clown statues that wreaked havoc previously), but too much somber, plodding, and low-energy content between.

Im a huge hell house fan I loved this movie and how they are expanding the lore. Fair warning for non hell house fans you can not watch this movie without watching the others first! Also acting isnt the best but I loved this series to start with the amateur acting and low budget feel to it. It isnt found footage which after watching the movie I totally get why.
