Suburban Gothic

"Suburban Gothic" misses the mark, but thanks largely to its cult-worthy cast, the miss can still be fun.

Richard Bates Jr.'s sophomore feature is a droll horror-comedy driven by a talented cast's riffing.

The movie plays quite well for a while but begins to run out of steam in its second half.

The real joy of the film is the sharp dialogue and huge personalities in this satire of a suburban hell.
