Jeffrey Brown's thoughtful, shattering cosmic horror boasts a remarkable performance from Liana Liberato and a final shot that still haunts me to this day. A bleak but poetic slice of true cosmic horror and one of my favorites of 2019.

No spoilers but I was bummed this didn't end with everyone peeing on each other.

This is more lovecraftian than the recent Color Out of Space and more along the lines of what I wanted that movie to be—less Lovecraft stereotypes and more emphasis on eco-horror cosmic dread.
I still liked that movie, but I appreciate this just as effective with less of a budget and never gets too full of itself or drops a million purple/pink/red/blue neon bs that I’m so sick of now. The small, tight cast does a solid job, and the first act setup goes by fast enough so acts 2 and 3 deliver that lurking terror eco-mutation cosmic body horror stuff I dig so much. Cool movie that knows exactly what it is, goes for the bleakness, doesn’t show us…

gonna give this one credit simply for being another one of these cheap indie dramas masquerading as a genre movie that actually does become a horror movie at a certain point. and that despite the title the horror is not some underlit photography and spooky sounds in a dilapidated house that might be an allegory for some familial trauma or whatever but instead very real, tangible, wet (briefly bodily) horror and a solid build-up of genuinely creepy, cosmic atmosphere implied almost entirely in the images. solid

Very well made slow burn Lovecraftian body horror that just hit all the right notes for me. I loved the setting and I’m ready to start looking for a beach vacation house of my own, preferably somewhere in North Carolina, but I digress.
It takes a little bit to get going, but it has a nice sense of dread while it gets there. Like you just aren’t quite sure exactly what to expect and even though you know something is definitely coming, you aren’t a sure what or where or when and the movie wisely doesn’t really give you a fucking clue until the shit hits the fan.. This worked especially well for me because I didn’t really read anything…

Real deal Lovecraftian “we’re all gonna die by the sea” psychedelic horror, practically missing a second act entirely as it shifts from mopey melancholy breakup movie to bulldozing apocalyptic creature feature without any warning at all (though its weird view on edibles feels pulled from a ‘50s drug scare picture). Contains one scene involving an impromptu foot surgery that’s almost vomit worthy. Between this and COLOR OUT OF SPACE, 2020 has become a pretty good year for bleak cosmic horror.

A frightening Lovecraftian horror film about a college couple who went to a beach house, unexpectedly meeting an older couple and a mysterious illness in the process. The film felt like a mixture of A Color Out of Space (2019) and The Mist (2007), with an unidentifiable infection of some sort in the water and a mist that was potentially triggered by human actions. The foreshadowing of what’s to come using an introductory dialogue about astrobiology and the presentation of the other-worldly, slimy creatures are what I think are the highlights of this film. The focus on the four characters, while conveying a story of creatures that are beyond our understanding made me stick until the end, as I try…

A queasy hybrid of cosmic terror and apocalyptic dread that succeeds solely on the basis of exploring its questions rather than answering them. Considering this is a relatively low budget debut, there’s always an expectation that cheap tricks could be used to distract from the lack of production value, but Jeffrey A. Brown’s crisp direction and use of stark daylight to build a sense of unease is actually quite intelligent. Although it contains some gross-out moments (which are always welcome), it's a surprisingly well-crafted exercise in toying with the power of the unknown to generate chills, further proving that sometimes in the world of horror, the idea of 'less is more' can often prevail.

WEED RULE: Don't do edibles with seniors you don't know.
A couple visit a beach house and after A WHILE an infection starts to take over people and the environment around them. I would call this film boring except for some reason I was entranced the whole time... it is slow though for sure. For a low budget film the effects are actually pretty good and fun and the cast does a good job with a dialogue heavy script that could have used some punching up. The reason you watch this film is for the last thirty minutes which are disturbing and fucked up and the above average cinematography, specifically the ocean scenes.

The Beach House is a Lovecraftian style horror movie, obviously taking its main influence from the classic Color Out of Space. We focus on a young couple holidaying in a beach house, only to have their fun interrupted first by another couple who happen to be there, and then by some strange ecological creeping horror taking over the vicinity. The film takes a while to get going, which is fine because this time is well used by establishing the characters; but then once it gets going, it's still quite slow when really I wanted it to take the brakes off and go full crazy. There are some striking scenes - a hugely cringy moment where the lead female has some…
