This movie came highly recommended from my mother, who watched The House with a Clock in Its Walls on a plane to Japan. Of course, it’s an Eli Roth movie so I had to watch it -just love his work. And Jack Black is in it, and Cate Blanchet and angry pumpkins and a pet armchair. And I have to say, there was no looking at my phone whilst I watched this one -it just wouldn’t release me from the story.
Released in September 2018, it’s now available on Amazon Prime.

The House with a Clock in Its Walls Review Conclusion
Yup, gonna watch this one again:- Absolutely loved this film. A fun, fairly fast-paced movie with a lot going on. I think that cat needs litter training though. Vivid characters with lots to see. A very absorbing watch. Oh, and Eli Roth is in there too, see if you can spot him.
5 Stars
Pumpkin pie wouldn’t go amiss, or huge chocolate and nut cookies with a glass of milk perhaps. You can also grab a copy of the DVD or digital movie on Amazon Prime by clicking on the image below.
