House at the End of the Street (2012)
House at the End of the Street is a psychological horror thriller released in 2012 and directed by Mark Tonderai, written by David Loucka. Jennifer Lawrence stars as Elissa, a teenager who moves with her mother Sarah (Elisabeth Shue) to a rural house they can afford only because of the notoriety of the property next door — the site of a double murder committed years earlier by a young girl. When Elissa befriends the surviving son Ryan (Max Thieriot), she begins to uncover secrets that suggest the past is far from buried. Notably filmed before The Hunger Games made Lawrence a global star, the film was released to capitalise on her sudden fame and performed well at the box office, grossing over $41 million on a modest budget. A solid, atmospheric teen thriller that delivers its twists with reasonable confidence.
Highlights
- Jennifer Lawrence's performance — Shot before her breakthrough, this is Lawrence in raw, unpolished form; her natural screen presence and instinctive emotional intelligence are already fully evident and elevate the material considerably.
- The rural setting — Tonderai makes effective use of the isolated, wooded location; the sense of being far from help gives the film a persistent low-level unease that sustains the atmosphere between set pieces.
- Elisabeth Shue as the mother — A grounded, believable performance that gives the film's family dynamic real credibility; Shue's scenes with Lawrence have a natural warmth that makes the horror more effective by contrast.
- Max Thieriot's ambiguity — Thieriot plays Ryan's quiet, damaged quality well; the film keeps the audience uncertain about his true nature for longer than expected, and his performance sustains that uncertainty effectively.
- The third-act revelations — The film's twists arrive with reasonable impact and reframe the story in interesting ways; not entirely unpredictable but handled with enough conviction to satisfy fans of the genre.
