Entertainment Reviews:
3.5 stars out of 4 -- The performances are as genuine as the film's style, especially from Donahue as the adorable and typical 80s teen...
Premiere
Rating: 4/5 --
The film's nostalgic design is subtle enough not to dampen the seriously sinister atmospherics.

Time Out
The power of this film lies in the approach to the inevitable final act, rather than the realisation of the act itself.
Little White Lies
Rating: 3/5 --
Things quickly get silly and unscary.
Full Review
Guardian
[P]alpably unnerving....Director Ti West has faithfully fashioned a throwback to classic occult horror films of the '70s and '80s.
USA Today
4 stars out of 5 -- Carefully, perfectly, beautifully built occult horror follows the roadmap of the early '70s and '80s Indie Screams with reverent precision and the occasional, wise reference to the cannon.
Box Office
[West] has come up with a period pastiche that mimics the low-res vibe and look of early-1980s horror....And he's done so with more shiver than splat.

Product Description:
A coed struggling to pay her rent ends up taking the wrong part-time job in writer-director Ti West's old-school 1980s-set horror flick, THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL. Samantha (Jocelin Donahue) is a sweet-natured and retiring young woman, unlike her rambunctious, loud, and self-assured best buddy, Megan (mumblecore stalwart Greta Gerwig). After moving into a new apartment, Samantha is desperate for a way to make a few more bucks. When Mr. Ulman (Tom Noonan) comes on campus looking for a babysitter, Samantha jumps at the opportunity. Once she convinces Megan to give her a ride to the creepy old Ulman house, Samantha learns that the job is not quite what was advertised. Ulman and his wife (Mary Woronov) don't even have a child. He tells Samantha that she just has to stay in the house with his elderly mother-in-law while he and the missus go out to celebrate the lunar eclipse. When she balks at the change of plans, he offers her more money. As the night goes on, it becomes clear that Samantha is a much bigger part of the Ulmans' plans for the evening than she would ever want to be. West established his genre credentials with low-budget cult favorites THE ROOST (which also starred Noonan) and TRIGGER MAN. THE HOUSE OF THE DEVIL also stars A.J. Bowen and Dee Wallace. The movie had its world premiere in the Midnight section of the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival.
