Broke.

You wouldn't think that a movie like The Scarehouse, which is about a haunted house attraction, would turn out so bland. I came across the film once when I was actively looking for haunted house attraction films, a type of film I usually enjoy watching. However, this film may be just about the worst film of its kind made.

For those who enjoy some creativity when films turn to these types of topics; I'm sorry to disappoint you. You don't get to see much of the attraction. Some rooms, some doors that open via a system and some smoke. You really won't get much more than that. Instead, it's more centered around the relationship between some characters.

The problem is mainly that they are all very clumsy and annoying figures. The film spends a lot of time explaining their motives. Those motifs have now been rehashed and above all boring, and how they respond to them is no longer particularly creative. Horror has rarely been able to really benefit from the background, which is all the more unfortunate that this film focuses on that and less on the horror elements.

It's actually just an incredibly boring event that completely collapses after 10 minutes. You will not be disappointed in very few areas with The Scarehouse. It's not bloody enough, not exciting enough and certainly not entertaining enough. The points it gets are for some decorations (of which there are also few) and a single torture scene. Otherwise not recommended.
