Open House (1987)
OK horror movie
Most of this movie was actually kinda slow and boring. The two best scenes were when the female agent and guy looking at houses encountered the bad guy. The bad guy did film a favor by getting them out of the film because they added nothing to it. The best scene involved Pilar (Christina Gallegos) getting electrocuted. It says something when she was the best character in the movie. She stood up to the pig Resnick and made sure people knew house was hers to sell-with yard sign in front and her name on banners inside and name tag on dress. The scene must have taken days to film because one time its sunny then cloudy then sunny. Because horror movies many times foreshadow what will happen next she takes all day to get out of the house and almost runs out but doesn't make sure she has keys. Too bad she didn't spend as much time on that as putting her name on everything. Her getting captured and tied up and gagged in basement was great because her mmphing and begging guy not to hurt her made no difference to him. Otherwise I'll agree with other posters rest of movie was boring, slow and not really scary.
