Blu-ray Review: Ti West’s ‘The Innkeepers’ Offers Slow Burn Horror

Blu-Ray Review: Tense, Clever Horror Throwback ‘House of the Devil’
Submitted by BrianTT on February 3, 2010 - 11:08amCHICAGO – Ti West’s “House of the Devil” became arguably the most buzzed horror film of 2009 not named “Paranormal Activity” with universal critical acclaim and even a spot on a few top ten lists at the end of the year.
