3. House At The End Of The Street

In the same year as her breakout role in The Hunger Games and her Oscar-nominated performance in Silver Linings Playbook, Jennifer Lawrence also appeared in a horror movie, and there’s a reason you don’t hear about that nearly as often as those other two.

This was House at the End of the Street, in which J-Law plays a young girl who, along with her mother, moves to a new neighbourhood that sits in the shadow of a house where a gruesome double murder was committed. 

It’s the one at the end of the street, in case you hadn’t already figured that out. 

There’s more to this movie than meets the eye, as Lawrence’s character learns that the facts of the past crime aren’t as true as everyone believes. There was potential here for a fun, twisty-turny kind of mystery, but the movie got every single step completely wrong, leading to an end product that was bloated, messy, and hard to follow.

Also, the House at the End of the Street committed the ultimate horror movie sin - it wasn’t scary. 

Never mind, Jenny. Two out of three ain’t bad.
