The whole time I was watching this movie I felt like I was watching a trainwreck. I couldn't look away. It just got worse and worse and worse until it finally ended. I'm not even sure what the point of the story was, but I'm pretty sure whoever wrote this really really really hates whoever cheated on them. Next time instead of making a movie, maybe seek some therapy instead of putting everyone else through this trash.

A classic supernatural horror film where a couple and their child are trapped in a house with a couple psychos. This is different than a home invasion story though, because it's more of a reluctant dinner party that goes bad and there are a couple good twists. There are also a few nonsensical moments and the epilogue is overly long, but overall, it's good enough to finish.

The plot is bad, and though billed as a horror/suspense movie, it's neither. The acting was sub par but not the worst, with one exception; the wife. I thought she was decent in Westworld, but here she is hollow, lacks sincerity and is simply not a believable character. Who would want to be with her? The dialogue as most people have mentioned is so bad that it's borderline comedy. There weren't even any decent shots of the bayou. Avoid it.

When the family that's close to breaking up takes a forced vacation to a grand house on the bayou, they don't expect to meet Isaac and Grand Pappy. The evening meal turns deadly and demonic, but fails to be as sinister as you'd want.

I happened to love Hemlock Grove's Season One and I loved and still love It Follows. A House on the Bayou is my favorite kind of horror. Like Hemlock Grove and It Follows, it's mostly unpredictable, it's strange, initially situations seem to escalate out of nowhere but they do go somewhere, there's a dark enigmatic character (Jacob Lofland) and there's a moral lesson at the core of the story. The dialogue is weird at times (Every time someone said Grandpappy, I laughed out loud because it's not 1930 and ridiculous Hollywood writers are so out of touch with the South. No one talks like that in the 21st Century). You don't know what the hell is going on most of the time because just when you think the script is going left, it goes right. And I loved the unsettling tone. I loved the cast. Jacob Lofland's Issac was my favorite. I couldn't stand the daughter. The moralistic message, script, acting, score, tone and direction complemented each other. There's never a dull moment and the runtime flew by. I enjoyed getting lost in this movie's strange Louisiana country mansion and its equally eerie parish.

Excellent original idea which quite frankly is the best movie I've seen this year. Forget about peel and his movies just watch this. What do people want from a movie nowadays? Probably want the main characters diverse and passive aggressive but unfortunately that is a turn off for us seasoned hardcore movie fans.

Granted, when I sat down to watch the 2021 mystery thriller "A House on the Bayou" from writer and director Alex McAulay, I hadn't even heard about the movie. So I had no idea what I was in for. But the synopsis for the movie sounded interesting enough, and it being a movie that I hadn't already seen also made me give the movie a chance. But as it turned out then "A House on the Bayou" wasn't really a particularly great movie. It started out interesting enough, but then quickly took a turn for the worse, from which writer and director Alex McAulay never managed to steer the movie back on a proper course. While "A House on the Bayou" was watchable, it just turned out to be a bit too far fetched, and I must admit that the storyline just didn't really sit well with me. It sort of felt like it was written by a teenager having to write a mystery story for a school project. The acting performances in the movie were adequate, but the actors and actresses were restricted by the fact that they didn't really have much of a properly entertaining and interesting storyline. It could have been a much better movie if the actors and actresses had more solid material to work with. And while I managed to sit through the entire movie, then this is not a movie that offered me much of any entertainment or enjoyment. And it is not a movie that I would recommend you rush out to get a chance to watch. Nor is is a movie that I will ever return to watch a second time. My rating of the 2021 mystery thriller "A House on the Bayou" from writer and director Alex McAulay lands on a mere three out of ten stars.

Interesting little horror thriller, about the BAD things people do to each other. I found Isaac very unnerving and a bit charming at the same time. This feels like an old school style horror movie, like Burnt Offerings or The Other (both 70's gothic horror) I found it overall kinda satisfying except for Toby?? :( That bothers me ALOT. If you like old school gothic horror, then you may well enjoy letting Isaac and Grandpappy take you for a ride in their beat-up ol truck. :O. Not gonna win any Oscars but it's creepy and unnerving and half way decent acting. I found the Mom's acting to be the worst of all but still worth a watch, if you can get past her robotic emotions.

This can't be for real...it's clearly the biggest con in movie history. Everyone involved is in on the joke. The only ones not in on the joke...are us, the audience. So unintentionally hilarious, it has to be intentional. Every single line of dialogue is it's own meme. Actors constantly saying hilarious things at non-hilarious moments: for example, husband lying on the floor, half eaten by a coyote...and wife asks 'do you have the car keys?'. I don't know if it's down to the editing, but all the way through, actors' lines overlapped, like before actor 1 finishes their sentence, actor 2 starts their line. Bizarre! Kudos to all involved for this MASSIVE practical joke...you got us! 😂
