This exciting and horrifying film takes after artist Melanie Thomas who manages a sculptural exhibit on Irish urban legends. At some point, she got a call from Father Alistair Burke who welcomed her to his home to look in a puzzling case. He drew a picture of a young lady and all of a sudden the young lady vanished from the painting. Melanie starts to explore for this situation endeavoring to reveal the secret behind it.
"Don't Leave Home" feels only half-baked. Mr. Tully's downbeat, dreamy approach to horror is a welcome one, but this time he leaves us with too many tight lips and loose ends.
[Manages] to produce some scares, and several very eerie images, culminating in a party scene and art auction that rivals Get Out on the 'white people be hella creepy' scale.
Don't Leave Home is moody and atmospheric, an arthouse horror film that has the patience to slowly roll out its story without worrying about jump-scares or big plot reveals.
... gradually and effectively builds suspense without resorting to cheap scares, even when the story lacks a deeper emotional resonance and relies too heavily on unexplained coincidences.
