Synopsis: A grad student in physics moves into a creepy old apartment house to finish his thesis. Soon after, he starts having weird and vivid nightmares about witches and talking rats that progressively get worse until he is sleepwalking and trying to kill his neighbor’s baby.
My take: Nothing too special here. Starts off with all the generic haunted house type scares, but once things get crazier, its absurd that the guy stays in the house. Any normal person would have left to find a crappy room to rent elsewhere. The rat with a human face is really, really stupid (see screenshot). This one was adapted from an HP Lovecraft story, and it definitely has that kind of feel to it. Most of director Gordon’s filmography consists of Lovecraft adaptations, but I can’t say that any of them are really that great. Still, this is a little bit of a different style tale than most of the MoH series and was mildly interesting.
Most shocking moment: I’ve never seen a movie where they show someone stab a baby in the neck.Body count: 4
