Home Sweet Hell

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Home Sweet Hell mistakes misogyny for subversive wit, aiming for black comedy but ending up with a grueling test of viewer endurance that wastes game efforts from its likable leads.

Questions start arising immediately: Is it satire? Is it black comedy? What is this? Go to Full Review

If Katherine Heigl thought the unappetizing dark comedy "Home Sweet Hell" might somehow help her flagging film career, she was greatly mistaken. Go to Full Review

2.5/10
In the end, Home Sweet Hell is neither an adequate black comedy nor a good slasher film. It's just hellish. There's nothing sweet about it. Go to Full Review

Insipid black comedy about suburban materialism and murder. Go to Full Review
Maitland McDonagh Film Journal International Mar 16, 2015
[Home Sweet Hell is] nothing more or less than a toothless satire of suburban conformity that might have felt a little more dangerous six decades ago. Go to Full Review

Harry W Apr 7, 2019 I voted for Patrick's good acting. The movie is actually fun to watch during dinner or for entertainment.
Harry M May 31, 2018 enjoyable movie if you want something fun and funny.
Leia S Mar 5, 2018 Can't understand the negativity on this one ...it had me chuckling away throughout as the film threw up these insane but plausible scenarios ...the characters were played to a tee ....I was gripped from start to finish. See more
Luke S Feb 28, 2018 A simple to watch and understand amusing film.
Han S Nov 18, 2017 Home sweet hell is a fun little movie with some insanely rediculous moments and mostly Irredeemable evil characters. Don is a complete mess and annoying coward until he redeems him self at the end. The movie has TV quality cinematography in an age where Indie films can look amazing, this is highly unacceptable and brings this movie down for me. However, I did like the movie and found enjoyment out of it even with the horrible TV quality of cinematography and some really bad moments of dialogue. I don't think this movie deserves all the hate it is getting, but I don't think this movie should be given any kind of special treatment. I would recommend this film to anyone who just wants to have a little bit of fun. See more
Anakin R Feb 2, 2017 It's good movie to watch
