Kids get orphaned and have to go live with grandma and granddaddy,

How many times have you heard this premise? Never mind, this time it's gory 80s fun with a couple of twists

So get that the mousse on your hair, put on some spandex and enjoy crank up the cassette player, You'll enjoy this schlock.

'Grandmother's House' is a mystery thriller about to kids going to live with their Grandparents, who are very happy to welcome them into their big home. However, the kids soon realize things are not what they seem.

I enjoyed the characters and the sense of mystery. The film also features good performances, especially the young boy, David (Eric Foster). 'Grandmother's House' is unpredictable and there's a constant eerie feeling. One can't help but always expect the worst. The film hits us with quite a few surprises! I must be honest, I enjoyed this film almost until the very end - until the film's final moments. The twist ending is not very clear (in fact, I had to read up about it to fully understand it), and ends so abruptly, it almost looks as if they ran out of production time or money. The ending could and should have been better explained. The viewer isn't even given time to process the information he's just been given. By the time you understand the twist ending, very little about the movie makes any sense. What a pity.

Would I watch it again? No.

Wasn't expecting much from this, to be honest. Discovered it by chance on Prime Video.

I know this genre has been well used, but I found the film to be an enjoyable. Can't believe that I'd never seen it before, as it's some 33 years old now. Yes it does still stand the test of time.

Basically creepy grandparents, living on a creepy farm.

I'd recommend you watch this, if you've not done so already.
