This movie is not worth the box or CD it was printed on. I went with several of my friends to a local video store during a boring weekend, and this movie popped out at us. The art and the story looked rather interesting: a migrant couple move into a house and get tortured by souls from the afterlife. Interesting, right? We rented it and went on our merry way. Upon arriving home, we popped the DVD in and began to watch it.
The first thing that got my attention was the lack of a DVD menu. Even those $1 children's DVDs at Walmart have one, so why doesn't this? You could afford interesting looking box art and a catchy summary, but nothing more? Once the movie actually STARTED (asides from... disturbing previews for some other no-name movies produced by the same people) my friends and I felt even more-so like our $3 was wasted. Whenever a character spoke, the camera moved to a fixed angle on their face, and nothing more. The dialog was repetitive and cheesy, and the continuity was terrible. Whenever a camera angle switched (given the director was creative enough to do so), actors would have different poses, and objects would clearly not be in the same place. Also, a lot of things in the plot just didn't make any sense. In many scenes you can see clear errors: such as 'night' scenes with clear daylight shining through a window in the background. Also, the acting was terrible. Expect to see better acting from first graders at a school play, than those people who starred in 'Dream Home'.
Do yourself a favor and don't follow the misleading box and summary. It may look good, but you don't know that until you've pressed play on your DVD remote. My advice is to never rent movies that you haven't heard of: chances are, there's a reason why.
