It was an okay movie. I watched the movie to the very end. Such a disappointing ending. I really can't recommend this movie.

The Open House misses the mark hard, especially with foreign audience. Anyone in a country not used with open house events will be left in the dark; and even if such audience figure out what this movie's theme is, they will still think this movie is just too self-pretentious. Hell, even the target audience should dislike this movie too.
The story follows Logan and Naomi Wallace, son and mother that are trying to get their stuff together after tragedy settles in on their family. Logan's aunt lent her mountain house on a small-town location so he and her mom could figure out what do to next. But soon they notice things are weird as the townsfolks are kinda weird, and they keep getting pranked by some psycho.
That is what this movie is mostly about: some prankster messing with Logan and Naomi. Turning off the water heat, moving objects around, opening doors in creepy ways, making loud noises. These pranks build tension between Logan and Naomi, although shallow and, mostly, backdrop to confirm a B plot.
As the movie title foreshadows, the theme is about the dangerous custom of opening your house to strangers. Anyone could just walk by unsupervised, do whatever, install whatever. Now, I don’t think it is that free for all, some security must exist in 2024, but I fall into the foreign category, the one that is just eatching this thinking: “yeah, sure… I guess…”
However, the story neither explores the theme deeply, hints to it happening here and there through dialog, but never clearly on our faces. The subtlety here playing enemy.
The terror aspect is alright mainly because it hits close to home. Who does not get creeped out by weirdness at home? One stressful week, and any cracking startles your sleep.
But that is no redeeming factor.
This movie is, at best, an exploitative slasher — how many shower scenes of Piercey Dalton does the movie need? —, but even at that it kinda fails as it lacks body count. I guess this movie would have been better if it were a Halloween parody of Property Brothers.

Do NOT waste your time on this movie. Complete waste of time and a total F-you to the audience who decided to sit through to the end.

Had all the stereotypical, lazy, and frustrating horror movie elements..
recent family tragedy, new unfamiliar house with a creepy basement, weird/intrusive neighbors, nosey strangers, depressed mother, angsty son etc. This should have been my first clue. It got to the point where I was checking how long the movie had left and debating on if I should even keep watching. I should have just google searched the ending and shut it off. I’ve had scarier farts. There was no conclusion, no explanation, I still have no clue what the plot was.
Don’t waste your time.
