Reviews:
“Whilst in many ways Home Sweet Home doesn’t bring anything new to the table, it’s a solid home invasion thriller with its own set of twists and pay offs which will please horror or slasher fans. A convincing, strong performance from the leads, Meghan Heffern, Adam MacDonald and Shaun Benson, as the silent killer, ensure the film can retain the audience during its more ‘reflective’ moments.” Cult Horror Films
“Looking at Mr. Morley’s IMDB, it would appear that short features have been his main work before this film. I honestly think this film might have been better served as a 20 – 30 minute short feature, instead of a feature length film.” Rio, HorrorNews.net
“The film that unfolds is pretty suspenseful but not without a few missteps that arise mainly from some pacing issues during the action. At times, the action pauses and the killer does not seem to finish the job when it seems like he could. There are also some stereotypically dumb actions from the couple that tamper with the story’s credibility a bit. Yet, for all that, things move toward a pretty solid conclusion with a bit of a twist that while not completed unexpected is satisfying enough.” Nicholas Strange, Strange Amusements
