House of the Devil

 

Jocelin Donahue stars as Samantha in a horror classic from recent years, House of the Devil. It's a slow-burn horror film that steadily raises the suspense until it's unbearable. 


And that unbearable level would be the sacrificial ceremony at the end of the film, where Samantha finds herself stripped of her clothing and trussed to a make-shift altar. 


Lots of good struggling in this scene (resulting in Samantha ultimately breaking free), with Sam's lovely legs and feet on display. 


The film overall is extremely well-done, with a great cast that features Tom Noonan (Manhunter, The Monster Squad), Mary Woronov (Eating Raoul), Dee Wallace (The Hills Have Eyes).


And Jocelin Donahue is superb in the lead role. The House of the Devil is highly recommended to watch around Halloween, or any other time of the year. Just don't watch it with the lights out.
