While a bit of ironic detachment isn’t necessarily a hindrance, too many latter-day horror flicks’ attempts to show they’re in on the joke make it difficult to get invested in their stories. Despite initially appearing poised to repeat this too-cool-for-school mistake, “Someone” moves past it by emphasizing not vengeance but redemption.

From a horror perspective, the film is lacking, but it more than makes up for it with well developed characters and a killer who preys on secrets.

THERES SOMEONE INSIDE YOUR HOUSE feels like a crazy concoction of a horror film: part 80s slashers, part Scream, part Breakfast Club. It captures a lot of feelings and vibes, and overall it never really misses a beat with what its going for. The killer and the masks they wear are brilliant, and the ensemble cast feels lived in and like actual people. It's a very competently made horror movie with a smart script and realistic characters, definitely a great watch for the 2021 Spooky Season.

This is a slightly above average film. It's like a cross between Saw (2004) and Scream (1996) but made in 2021. The characters and story aren't as memorable as Scream and the violence isn't as intense as Saw. The murderer wasn’t who I thought it would be, which was good. The reasoning didn't really make sense. There are some really great sequences like driving into the fire and the phone torches at the party but there's also too much filler and it can be pretty slow moving at times. The concept can't fill the runtime. I did enjoy the slashing violence and gore. Worth watching if you can't think of anything else to watch.

Why the murderer feels compelled to don a 3-D printed mask of each victim’s own face isn’t entirely clear—nothing about, say, recording a repugnant podcast episode merits symbolic self-inflicted harm—but, hey, it’s a novel gimmick.

The film feels like a missed opportunity to interrogate society’s fervent need to make pariahs out of people for their past mistakes.

A slasher movie could be a compelling framework through which to subvert the (timeless but super Twitter-ified) temptation to reduce people to the worst thing they’ve ever done, but There’s Someone Inside Your House isn’t sharp enough to meaningfully subvert our bloodlust or eviscerate our need for blame.

In trying to have it both ways, Brice has created a messy, overstuffed parody of moral policing that squanders the promise of its cleverly executed opening.

There's Someone Inside Your House tries to make you think it's got a catchy, viable gimmick when in reality it's empty and unsatisfying.

Not too bad horror, with cute twists and a mundane but engaging storyline. A big flaw, however, is predictability, you know very well who the killer is from the first part because it is obvious, and even if the film tries to address you to other suspects it fails. Another flaw is the lack of in-depth analysis of the characters who are poorly characterized and kept too serious, they are all characterized by the few traits that make them distinct and are practically all stereotypes.

Good kills, weak story. How hard can it be to produce a slasher without a convoluted/messy story?

Someone tell me, what does the title of the movie have to do with its content? There's Someone Inside Your House is a teen slasher that is not going to please any fan of the genre.
