One of Netflix’s many failed forays into horror returns from the grave to stick the knife back into the Top 10

Horror is arguably a genre that Netflix should place more of a focus on, with acclaimed originals like His House and the Fear Street trilogy standing out as anomalies more than the standard-bearers for acclaimed tales of terror. Even a genre titan like James Wan couldn’t elevate There’s Someone Inside Your House above mediocrity, which sums up the issue rather neatly.

Produced through the Conjuring creator’s Atomic Monster banner, director Patrick Brice tackled the story a teenager who moves from Hawaii to rural Nebraska to live with her grandmother and complete the standard trials and tribulations of high school, only for a serial killer to embark on a rampage that exposes deep dark secrets while also leaving behind the requisite trail of bodies.

Based on the best-selling novel of the same name, there weren’t many surprises to be found for those who’d read the source material, and that feeling sadly applied to audiences as a whole. Largely lambasted for being formulaic and predictable to a fault, There’s Something Inside Your House came and went from Netflix’s most-watched list without making a splash, no doubt partly due to the tepid reactions from both critics and its target audience.

However, you can never keep even middling horror down on streaming for too long, with There’s Something Inside Your House rising like an unmemorable phoenix from the ashes to reclaim its spot in the upper echelons of the top-viewed charts. Per FlixPatrol, the film has re-emerged as the sixth-biggest hit on Netflix this week almost two full years after its debut, proving yet again the genre is nigh-on indestructible when it comes to drawing in a crowd.
