Up front: I don't the bad reviews. I liked Bacons acting and the overall story arc with the house being a main character, not unusual but very exciting, still. The story has some amazing moments, and some rather dull, where the suspense was used too hard to get a point across. A more subtle, less agressive approach of the 'evil'would have added to the essence of the film: a psychological thriller where the main character needs to turn inward. It became somehow superficial because of this.
Apart from this and me who could not stop having the "Kevin alone at home" reference in mind (esp. Bacon BEING nearly alone with the 'evil' - at home or at least in his mind)... sorry if this offends anyone.
Great entertaining film to watch once but enjoy it. Don't expect an absolute masterpiece but still a very worthwhile film.
