Now all alone in the large Gothic mansion he calls home and consumed in an inferno of insanity, he is finally able to fulfil his violent revenge fantasies against her. Soon, any woman unlucky enough to enter is forced to come face to face with the worst fate imaginable in the secret steelclad chamber of death he has built in the house’s depths… (Arrow Films)

A hyper-B-movie clone of Psycho about a guy whose mother punished him as a child by burning him with the flame on a gas stove and who, after her death, copes with his trauma by burning innocent girls. Don’t Go in the House is impotent in terms of its directing, writing and acting, as well as perverse, repulsive and endlessly BORING. If the then neophyte Oliver Wood (Die Hard 2, Face/Off) hadn’t been behind the camera, this film would have been unwatchable. ()
