Short Film Review: We Know You Are Home (2018)

Due to an increase of missing children, Halloween is almost outlawed in the town April (Julie Landriault) calls home, but that doesn’t stop her from getting a gig house-sitting on our favorite haunted holiday while the owners are out doing Satan knows what. Our heroine settles in for a night of fright flick classics on the beastly boob tube when she receives a chilling visit from some ghostly trick r’ treaters (Johnny Elston, Ricky Elston, and Daniel Elston) who may not be what they seem… and before long those sheet-covered supernatural shit heels are in the house, and that’s when things get positively preternatural for Alice! Written and directed by Andrew J.D. Robinson, We Know You Are Home is an effective expansion of his previous short, Trick r’ Treat (which I reviewed right here). The entire affair is a fangtastic Halloween spookshow replete with sheet covered spectral beings, forbidden rooms, family secrets, and plenty of good ol’ spine chilling suspense…

The first teaser welcomes you to “The I-Land“, coming off like a horror version of “Lost.” The mysterious new event series follows ten people who wake up on a treacherous island with no memory of how they arrived. As they et off to find a way back home, they soon discover this world is not as it seems.
