House on Pine Street Gets Release Date, First Sneak Peek

house on pine street

Now we have Aaron and Austin Keeling’s The House On Pine Street, which has made the festival rounds throughout this year to positive reviews, and will finally be making its LA Premiere in a couple of weeks. “At the heart of the case is local authority and what gives the state the right to interfere. In California, the constitution requires that state laws impeding cities’ local control must demonstrate a reasonable relationship between the legislature’s stated intention and the design of the law,” Talerico writes. The stated intention for SB 9 was improving housing affordability, but the judge ruled that the legislature’s intention doesn’t match up with the design of the law because the law doesn’t require any of the resulting units to be priced below market rate. Shot in an 1840 house that purportedly came with its own ghostly lore, “Pine Street” is nicely atmospheric without succumbing to the usual cliches of spooky production design or false gotcha scares. The performers ably walk a line in which their potential malevolence or insanity can be considered without it being too clumsily portended.

It’s rare that a film with multiple writers turns out well, and The House On Pine Street is really an exception, especially when you factor in its origins and its shooting schedule of 19 days. She is seven months pregnant and reluctantly returning to her hometown in Kansas, after an unexpected mental breakdown. Coping with her fears of motherhood, a strained relationship with her husband, Luke (Taylor Bottles), and the overbearing presence of her own mother, Meredith (Cathy Barnett), Jennifer struggles to regain control of her life. But when strange things start happening in their new rental home, Jennifer begins to fear that it may be haunted. Alone in her convictions, Jennifer is forced to question her sanity as she attempts to find out what, if anything, is plaguing the house. After an unexpected mental breakdown, Jennifer Branagan regretfully leaves her hometown in Kansas at seven months pregnant.

Five California cities have won a lawsuit against the state over SB 9, a law passed in 2021 that effectively abolished single family zoning statewide. The Bite Size Short Grant Program awards $2,000 film grants to female-identifying and queer horror filmmakers. Shorts must be able to be made for $2,000, with a minimum runtime of 8 minutes.

With TxDOT unwilling to cancel a controversial freeway expansion project, the city is looking for funding to mitigate the projected impacts. The high-speed rail project isn’t a done deal, but if it moves forward, trains could begin operating in 2030. The ambitious 6,000-acre project will combine an 800-watt solar farm with crop and livestock production. Exposition Boulevard was closed in both directions during the initial investigation.

Despite the excellent framework of the story, it still boils down to the familiar “family moves into haunted house” horror cliché, which doesn’t do much different than what horror fans have seen for years, tweaks aside. Also, the film’s script felt like a case of too many people had worked on it. From a runtime that clocks in at almost two hours, to unnecessary characters like the psychic friend of Jennifer’s, or even some actions by characters, the film teeters a bit.

Attempting to regain control of her life, Jennifer’s troubles have included her dealing with pregnancy troubles, the struggling relationship with her husband, Luke (Taylor Bottles), and her control freak of a mother, Meredith (Cathy Barnett). Things appear to look up when Jennifer and Luke move into a new rental house (arranged by mom, of course). Things however turn quickly when Jennifer starts experiencing weird happenings in the house. With no one believing her, Jennifer starts to question whether she’s going crazy, or if something supernatural is in the house. But this effectively creepy second feature from brothers Aaron and Austin Keeling should please the patient in fest play and eventual home-format exposure, with regional theatrical release a possibility.

Jennifer fights to regain control of her life while dealing with her anxieties about childbirth, a tense marriage with her husband Luke, and the domineering influence of her own mother Meredith. Jennifer, however, starts to worry that their rented home might be haunted when odd things start happening there. As she tries to figure out what, if anything, is wrong with the house, Jennifer, who is alone in her beliefs, is forced to wonder if she is still sane. The Keeling Brothers bring the other part through the camera, direction and effects. There’s very little use of CGI in The House On Pine Street (smart move), and what digital effects there are in the film are used to enhance what’s already there.

Creepy Kingdom was founded in 2011 and is a multimedia website, and production studio specializing in creepy content. Their primary focus lies at the intersection of childlike fantasy and the macabre, covering horror films, theme parks, haunts, and much more. Script problems aside, The House On Pine Street definitely deserves the praise that it’s gotten. Wonderful acting by Goss and a delightfully disturbing atmosphere really make this film one of the best indie fare to be seen this year.

Lafayette City Council Member Susan Candell penned an op-ed in support of a lawsuit to invalidate Senate Bill 9 by four Southern California cities, highlighting a recent supportive court filing by UCLA economic geographer Michael Storper. Dave Sotero, a spokesperson for LA Metro, said the bus crossed into the path of an E Line train. The light rail line runs from East Los Angeles to downtown Santa Monica mostly along streets, and not all of the crossings have gates. Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna said Tuesday that California Highway Patrol officers had arrested a gang member in San Onofre who shot a deputy in the back as he sat on his department motorcycle at a West Covina stoplight. 'Rosemary's Baby' goes West in the Keeling brothers' low-key but atmospheric haunted-house chiller. While Mr. Fetterman may have been in the minority among his political peers, with most of whom following the president’s example and opting for a traditional tux, creative black tie proved a talking point.

Metro said its train service would be limited and buses would be used to get passengers through the crash area. The Starcraft 40-passenger bus was traveling westbound on Exposition Boulevard with only the driver and one passenger aboard when the collision occurred, according to a statement from USC Transportation. The bus driver and passenger were the two most severely injured, according to fire department officials. Two victims were hospitalized with serious injuries and 16 others were transported in fair condition, the department said.

The framing of the actors in the scene draw you into the film’s world, making it seem like you’re right there to experience the happenings. I also love it when directors get right the “rollercoaster” of building that energy, releasing it, and then immediately hitting the audience again for a quick bump. It’s not something you want to go for all the time, but used sparingly, it’s very effective. There’s always something really unnerving about being alone in a house and your mind starts playing with you. I imagine that it’s worse if people dismiss you, or end up blaming you for making it up.

“Based on statements, security camera video in West Covina, witness statements and the firearm recovered by CHP, detectives strongly believe Raymundo Duran is the suspect in the shooting of our deputy,” Luna said. Duran is being held in the San Diego County jail in lieu of $1-million bail. Winners will have a one-night theatrical screening at Regal Cinemas. The screening will take place on July 8, 2024, in Los Angeles, CA. “In addition to founding Creepy Kingdom, James has won awards for his documentary work, including the award-winning “Foolish Mortals,” which has earned him recognition. He has been featured on Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween special.

Modest but well-turned package is pro in all design and tech departments.

From seeing “people” in the bathroom or hearing footsteps from the floor above, to having an incident with her friend Lauren’s (Natalie Pellegrini) toddler that makes Jennifer look like more of a threat than victim, it all boils down to creating sympathy for Jennifer. I give a lot of credit to Emily Goss for pulling this all off with Jennifer, not unlike what Essie Davis did in The Babadook. It’s obvious that Jennifer has been through a lot, and is still dealing with crap.

The tension play and mood, combined with Jennifer’s multi-layered predicament keeps you glued to the screen. Definitely one that fans of haunted house fare, as well as those of indie films, should check out. Haunted house films have seemingly been a hit or miss thing with me. It took a while before I grew to like William Malone’s The House On Haunted Hill, for example. I’m not sure why, but chalk it up to my younger self having different opinions. Of course, there are many other haunted house films that have either clicked or clunked with me.
