Wonderfully offbeat film!

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

If it's a dose of graphic old school gore you're after then Home Sick, with its regular and excessive scenes of non-CGI carnage, definitely delivers the goods: feet are sliced, heads are crushed, fingernails are torn out, teeth are smashed in, bodies are cleaved in two.It's the stuff between the splatter that takes the film down a notch or two.Writer E.L. Katz and director Adam Wingard have taken an offbeat approach with their storytelling, and the cast perform accordingly, putting in some decidedly strange performances; the result is a head-scratchingly bizarre movie at times, equal parts sadistic horror, wacky splat-stick, low-brow comedy, and avant-garde art-house weirdness, an awkward mixture that is certainly memorable, but not always that easy to digest.Bill Moseley hams it up as a creepy stranger with a suitcase full of razor blades; Tiffany Shepis rolls around manically in her dead mother's blood; Tom Towles slaps his thighs as his son and his friends play with an assortment of firearms: occasionally the silliness works, but at other times it's just too eccentric for its own good.Home Sick is worth watching simply for all the lovely red stuff—and Shepis getting her norks out (again)—but it's certainly not for everyone.

This movie is incredible. Humble, hilarious, unfiltered and smart. You have wicked exploitation elements, smart writing, classy young actors, weird stuff, funny stuff and gore. Gritty, old-school... Homesick reminded me how much fun exploitation horror movies are.(This movie is very gory. Somehow it all seems in good fun though...) (Bill Moseley is a very good actor.) (Where did they get the rest of these actors? I feel like I have not seen this caliber of acting in a film on this budget before. Really refreshing to see some original behavior in this genre.) (Keep your eyes on these filmmakers, they know what we want...)

I'm so mad I watched this that I want to hit something. I refuse to believe this was actually a finished product. Home Sick (the title makes no sense) is about a group of friends (who don't seem to like each other at all) who are attending a welcome home gathering for one girl. During the lame wingding, Bill Moseley shows up with a suitcase full of razor blades and asks each guest to name who they hate. They do, and then one says he hates everyone at the party. Those named specifically start dying, which leads the "friends" to realize they're next. And somehow a demon gets involved.The only thing this dreck has going for it is piles of gore. And honestly, it's refreshing that "Home Sick" is an old fashioned splatter movie. Almost every death is shown in splattery red detail, and since I hated every character, I was glad to watch them go so graphically.Moseley is charming and weird, but only in the film for a few minutes. Tiffany Shepis almost gives a performance, but everyone else is unbelievably bad. People laugh for no reason. Who the hell was the guy in the garage with the glasses?? What was up with the demon guy having a lock of hair in the middle of an oozing scalp? Did the director REALLY tell the guy playing "Tim" to act like that? And saddest of all was Tom Towles, who started off being typically great and then lowered himself to the material.There's a reason this crap stayed on the shelf for as long as it did. Maybe someday it will be recast and re-edited and make a tolerable movie. As it is, I'm only giving a generous 4 because of all delightful red stuff.

I have been waiting to see this movie and when i finally saw it I was not disappointed! The effects were awesome. It was gory as heck. Bill Moseley was awesome in it as well as Tom Towels (Both of Rob Zombie Fame). All the characters that were high looked like garbage and acted way out of the ordinary. I think the director and writer were trying to portray a message with that. But the acting was was good and there was some weird humor in it. To me, when a movie has you thinking about it long after it ends it is a good movie and this one had me thinking about it long after I watched it. I hope to see what else E.L. Katz (Writer/Producer) comes up with in the future. I hope it is as crazy, whacked-out and gory as "Home Sick" was. If your a horror fan than you should not miss this!
