“The Last House” Netflix Review — Worst Film of the Year?

from Oh Brother · host Dan and Mike Smith

Message Dan and MikeWe're reviewing Netflix's The Last House, the sci-fi horror thriller starring Greta Lee and Wagner Moura as parents whose family gets mysteriously sealed inside their home with no way out. The premise is strong and the first act hooks us immediately, but a jarring five-year time jump sends the story spiraling into some of the weakest, most unsatisfying territory we've covered on the show. We dig into the film's abandoned plot threads, its unconvincing CGI creatures, the convenient "everyone's an engineer" problem-solving, and why comparisons to A Quiet Place don't do it any favors. We also talk through the film's IMDb Metascore and its rough Rotten Tomatoes numbers, and explain exactly why we can't recommend spending your two hours on this one.From there we pivot to a rundown of what's actually worth streaming right now. On Netflix, we're raving about Beef, WWE: Unreal, Tires, and Everyone Is Doing Great. On Apple TV+, we cover Your Friends and Neighbors, Widow's Bay, and Sugar starring Colin Farrell. We also flag a couple of shows we'd steer you away from. Plus, a fun tangent on A Quiet Place, film noir influences, and more of our usual brotherly banter.Support the showOh Brother Podcast:Support the Show!
