7/10
Evil, is not quite what it appears to be.....

Warning: Spoilers
The opening of the film, is suggestive of horror. scare tactics of the movie, play on superstitions and beliefs of the time.

The story revolves around a funeral home, that is being renovated for a tourist home: a bed and breakfast.

There is a mystery in the story. the trigger to the building of the suspense: a black cat.

The film seems to play out more as a psychological thriller, than as a classical horror.

The score, plays well with the suspense of the movie. The plot, it reminds me of the movie Psycho; in many ways.

I believe this movie, to be an original interpretation; of a psychological slash horror film. The movie takes a while, before it gets to anything that can be seen as actual horror.

The mystery of the story, is played out enough; to keep the viewer interested.

Funeral Home, seems to be a little longer than it needs to be, but it is an okay movie; and it should appeal to fans of Psycho, and of other slash horror films.
