This gave IT vibes, which I loved, but I also really appreciated how you used the suburban setting so effectively. Poltergeist, Paranormal Activity, Amittyville--there's something undeniably compelling about the conceit. The idea that there is a hidden malignancy buried beneath layers of apparent benignity is truly a rich one indeed and you've done a nice job of wringing some fresh life from it. Bravo.
Yeah, I used to assume there were budget constraints that made it easier for low budget horror to work on small sets, and maybe that’s also true. But small town horror definitely has a poignancy that “big city” horror like Dawn of the Dead doesn’t quite replicate. Thanks for the kind words. 😄
