Muppet T I just went on a tour of the octagon house and the lady who gave us the tour mentioned this movie and that it was filmed while the house was in neglect. She also said it wasn’t the best movie ever made, so of course I had to watch it. Well guess what?! It’s not that bad! Older movies don’t usually get me spooked but this one did a good job. While there’s plot holes here and there it doesn’t take away from the movies charm. It has elements of both supernatural and real life horror and was aesthetically pleasing. I’d say it’s worth a watch for sure. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Audience Member It's weak but not as weak as the acting from the poet. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member The Nesting is a very strange bizarre haunted house film some of the dialogue and the writing are silly including the cast are almost wooded and some of the deaths are shocking to watch. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/26/21 Full Review amanda g Interesting concept for a haunted house movie with a few foibles here and there, but a good story and bedrock for a modern retelling. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member What a hokey pile of poop... It's got a pretty typical story for a haunted house flick, and hits all the typical beats. The girl is soo hilariously bad though, and there's some bonkers moments, that you might find some fun in it...
