Movie #7- "House at the End of the Street" (2012)

Congratulations Jennifer Lawrence.  You have now entered the pantheon of talented actors/actresses that have a horror movie in their resume.  Not only does this film star one Oscar-nominated actresses, but two (Elisabeth Shue plays her mother).  I'm guessing this movie was shot before "Hunger Games", then conveniently released after that movie became a hit.
I realize the appeal of PG-13 horror films to the studios since a younger audience can attend them.  Yet, they're never scary.  You can scare people minus gore, it just doesn't happen here.  In fact, the first hour plays more like an Afterschool Special.  Thankfully it was a free rental.

Rating: 3/10
