(HORROR) Homecoming - 2009 **




My best friend came over the other weekend and we decided to watch a couple of horror films.


I must say that I was hoping this was going to be far better than it was. It seemed to be a mix of 'Misery' and 'Single White Female' but with none of the really good bits.


Mischa Barton, whom I last saw playing a wimpy non-descript character in the OC totally came out of her shell in this to play a psychologically disturbed young woman who decides to seek revenge when the ex love of her life comes back home for the holidays with his new girlfriend.


On the surface she is happy and supportive of his new relationship, but underneath she is angry beyond compare, and we soon learn that she is hiding some terrifying secrets from her past.


Some scenes are horrifying (there was one scene reminiscent of 'Misery' that made us grimace and have to look away), some are totally ridiculous, and others (including a scene with a mammouth plate of ham) had us rolling on the floor.


Not one I would recommend, instead I would tell people to see the two films mentioned above, but on a plus side Barton's acting was pretty good.
