“The curiously titled I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House opened with interesting visuals and fantastic narration, true be told I was gripped from the outset.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt tells the story of a nurse who moves in with an old lady who was once a successful author. To say anything more would spoil it, to say anything more would also be difficult as itu0026#39;s rather hard to explain.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSo as mentioned the visuals were great and the narration solid, sadly the visuals donu0026#39;t last and the narration isnu0026#39;t enough to save the film. Not even remotely.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film is certainly unique but Iu0026#39;m not quite sure who itu0026#39;ll appeal to, certainly not someone seeking a horror. Itu0026#39;s an unusual little slow burning tale that had me interested but all the while I waited for it to get going.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eAlas the movie though charming fails to deliver on any front, at least for me.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Good:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eReally unique styleu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGreat narrationu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBob Balabanu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Bad:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eReally dullu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGoes nowhereu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThings I Learnt From This Movie:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGhosts are made by looking for them but pretending not to seeu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003e28yrs old?
