The Evictors1979

Horror Vault's take

When a young couple settles into a remote Louisiana farmhouse, the warm smiles of their new neighbors can't quite mask the chill lurking beneath the surface. The house has a past soaked in violence, and it isn't long before that history begins pressing uncomfortably close to the present. Director Charles B. Pierce weaves a slow-burn Southern Gothic atmosphere that keeps viewers guessing about who — or what — poses the real threat. Rooted in a claim of true events, The Evictors trades jump scares for creeping dread and a mounting sense that some properties are never truly sold.
