They know I can’t say no to Hell House LLC

Fangoria just posted a clip from the new Hell House LLC installment, Hell House LLC: Lineage.

I think that Hell House LLC is one of those archetypal horror franchises. Some entries have been exceptional examples of a found footage horror film, and some have… been not as good. But I do have a soft spot for the franchise as a whole, which has consistently had a particular point of view and cohesive world building.

It is also a franchise that is notable for the fact that every film was written and directed by the same person. It wasn’t bought up and put under some sort of studio control, which what we saw with smaller projects like SAW after they got favorable audience reactions.

So as long as Stephen Cognetti’s name still stays above the title, I’m still going to be excited for it.

I know that this movie has been looking for distribution for a while. I don’t know why people would think to sit on this, given the current Moment™ Pedro Pascal is having.

I like everything that I see here. It’s definitely a throwback style to a movie that I think audiences are actually looking to see. I sincerely hope that the hype around Pedro will actually put butts in seats to the point where people actually think about investing in these smaller movies.

It’s obvious even from the trailer that this movie is a labor of love. The vibes appear impeccable and the early reviews, especially from sources that I trust, seem positive.

I honestly can’t wait to see this.
