The House on Pine Street (2015)

Plain awful and very old-fashioned

[1/10 · 10 October 2018]

So essentially all the characters in this are just forcing a young woman to carry a baby that she doesn't want, because her wanting an abortion is them perceiving her as crazy? I'd assumed for the majority of the film that from the reactions of the other characters the female protagonist had become suicidal after finding out of her pregnancy, but it was only an abortion and everyone acts as if she's the most insane person to have ever existed. The entire film is built upon this concept, too... the bumps in the night, slamming doors etc. are all explained away by how crazy she is. Pssh. Gutted I gave this one the time.
