07/01/12 The Innkeepers (2011)

I've been drinking 'Snow Grouse' this evening, which is whisky you put in the fridge. It's pretty much the same as every whisky that's come before it. But a bit chilly.


The above also can be lazily applied to the film in question: Very 'nice' to look at, but you've seen it all before. This was directed by Ti West, who *ahem* has posted an entirely fair comment on why low budget indie films should be purchased and not downloaded.

Mr West also directed The House of the Devil, a film which got a huge amount of fucking idiots excited because it looked a bit old. Go to IMDB and read the comments made by people born in the 90s for more details.

Having said that, in fairness, THOTD is actually not bad. This film is about a hotel with three members of staff: A boyish girl, a man with pointy hair and a boss on holiday. There's a piano and a laptop also involved. Kelly McGillis is excellent.

5/10
