Home for Rent is a horror mystery following a couple who rent out their home. However, the new tenants turn their lives into a nightmare, as they find themselves targeted by a cult. Now, it becomes a battle to save their child from the spirits released.
This is a creepy horror that is told unusually and brings to life a terrifying concept. While it starts with a steadily increasing horror, it takes a dramatic turn which leaves you shocked. However, despite good horror moments, the movie can drag on longer than it needs to. Even if some of the horror moments are the more frightening ones you will see this year.
