When it comes to horror movies, I've become somewhat desensitized to the usual bag of tricks. I'm not interested in jump scares, I'm a gorehound, and I don't care for run-of-the-mill possessions. So most of that can still be entertaining, but those tropes rarely keep me coming back for more. I often find myself yearning for horror that can get under my skin and linger. That's why I was so pleasantly surprised by the 2015 found footage gem "Hell House LLC," which is now streaming for free on Tubi.
From start to finish, this movie is dedicated to remaining as doggedly realistic as possible — save for the supernatural elements that we'd all have to agree to disagree on. Because of this, "Hell House LLC" comes with a sense of authenticity, making it feel like something that could have actually happened. The found footage format is super difficult to get right, and in fact I find myself irritated when I see it employed without any care for what could actually happen in real life.
