A Haunted House Reviews
Heck, worse films starring Robert De Niro have been released this year.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 21, 2013
Dreadful.
| Original Score: 1/5 | May 27, 2013
You know a fright-flick craze is in danger of running its course when Marlon Wayans comes along to broadly, belatedly spoof it.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 25, 2013
Along comes Marlon Wayans to do in A Haunted House what he once did in Scary Movie. And do it much, much worse.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 25, 2013
A movie that offends every moral sensibility but delivers few comedic rewards.
| Original Score: 0.5/4 | Jan 24, 2013
It's like watching a snuff film, only it's the audience who's dying inside.
| Original Score: 0/5 | Jan 18, 2013
Does it even qualify as a movie? Why did it take two people to write and cost $2.5 million to make?

You might chuckle at Wayans huddled in the tub, frantically trying to scrub himself clean of something slightly more earthly-freaky than evil spirits. But watching him get it on with stuffed animals? Ick.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Jan 13, 2013
There are vague hints that the story is "really" about the difficulties and anxiety of commitment, but then one of many variations on a fart joke distracts from any actual idea.
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Jan 13, 2013
If the opening gag in your R-rated movie is an extended flatulence joke you should reconsider whether you're qualified to make such a movie.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 11, 2013
If you're wondering why A Haunted House exists alongside the upcoming Scary Movie 5 rather than instead of it, you may already have given the subject more thought than Marlon Wayans had hoped.
| Original Score: .5/4 | Jan 11, 2013
Harkens back to the initial days of the oughties spoof craze, when screenwriters actually lampooned film genres rather than whatever the hell happened to catch their eye on YouTube as they sought inspiration.
| Original Score: B- | Jan 11, 2013
Disrespect is the name of the game for this flat, by-the-numbers Paranormal Activity spoof, which suggests that letting your girlfriend move in with you is pretty much tantamount to opening the gates of hell.
| Jan 11, 2013
The craftsmanship here isn't just lacking, it's nonexistent, and the found-footage conceit is little more than a rickety structure to house an endless gauntlet of hackneyed jokes involving sex, flatulence, pot, and feces.
| Original Score: D+ | Jan 11, 2013
A frenetic and freewheeling satirical comedy that only sporadically scores a bull's-eye while aiming at easy targets.
| Jan 11, 2013
This parody of Paranormal Activity and other found-footage horror films too often substitutes raunch for wit.
| Jan 11, 2013
The homophobia that saturates [this film] is no mere joking around. It comes from a place of hate and [the filmmakers] must be held accountable.
| Original Score: F | Jan 10, 2013
