Scary Movie Update













Check out The Silent House!



Plot:

The plot is based on a true story that happened in the late 40's in a small village in Uruguay. The film focuses on Laura, who, second by second, intends to leave a house which hides an obscure secret, unharmed. Laura and her father Wilson settle down in a cottage they have to renew since its owner will soon put the house up for sale. They will spend the night there and repair the following morning. Everything seems to go smoothly until Laura hears a sound that comes from outside and gets louder and louder on the upper floor of the house. Wilson goes up to see what is going on while she remains downstairs on her own, waiting for her father to come down.


We learn the house knows all your secrets and nightmares. True Story!? Can't wait to see it. I guess it was already released in 2010 where I'm at, but it'll be released soon in the states because it made such an impact.

Again:

The plot is based on a true story that occurred in the 1940s in a small village in Uruguay. La casa muda focuses on the last seventy eight minutes, second by second, as Laura tries to leave the house unharmed and discovers the dark secret it hides.


Like Hitchcock's film Rope, this movie is one, long, sinuous shot, which makes it all the more intriguing.

La casa muda was shot in real time in one continuous 78 minute take, with no cuts. It is one of only a handful of theatrically released movies to be shot in one continuous long take, and it has been billed as the first ever single-take horror film, though this claim is the subject of some dispute.


A film called Infection (2005) might have beat it to the punch. Either way, can't wait to see this!
