Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })House (Hausu) is a 1977 Japanese surrealist horror comedy Toku film directed by Nobuhiko Obayashi. It is considered the Spiritual Predecessor to The Evil Dead (1981).After the blockbuster success of Jaws, the Toho studio wanted to produce a Japanese competitor in that market. Commercial director Obayashi came up with a story inspired by his daughter's nightmares, and with presumptuous rogue campaigning and promotion that hyped the film and got him signed to direct, he took the helm of one of the most unusual pieces of cinema to ever be created."Gorgeous" is the nickname of a teenaged girl who is unpleasantly surprised when her widowed father introduces her to a woman he plans to marry. Gorgeous decides to get out of town rather than go on vacation with her dad and future stepmom, and invites six of her friends—the also-nicknamed Fantasy, Melody, Sweet, Kung Fu, Prof, and Mac—to the country to visit the home of her maternal auntie to reconnect. Auntie receives them pleasantly but it quickly becomes apparent that something is very wrong with her. Something is very wrong with her house as well. Strange things begin to happen as it seems that evil forces are at work to kill them. It can be best described as a drug-addled David Lynch's version of a more colourful (if that's even possible) Suspiria (1977) remake. The Criterion Collection memorably described the film as both "a psychedelic ghost tale" and "an episode of Scooby-Doo as directed by Mario Bava"Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })It was released in North America in 2009 as House. Not to be confused with the American haunted house movie called House, or that other House who's a snarky doctor. | |

And I Must Scream | |
| Hausu / int_a8a04f6f | comment |
And I Must Scream: When a possessed Gorgeous pretends to call the police, voices screaming for help can be heard on the line. Later, when Kung Fu is swallowed by a ceiling light, she sees the dismembered bodies of all her friends in a multicolored limbo, all calling out to her, implying that even in death, they are all stuck in the house. | |

Adults Are Useless: Mr. Togo, who was meant to join the girls and whom the girls later wait on to save them, never even makes it to the house. Instead he gets turned into a pile of bananas. | |
