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.
