Action Survivor | |
| Silent House / int_53407671 | comment |
Action Survivor: For the most part, Sarah just runs from one room to the next, acting like any one of us would when being stalked by a killer in a locked house. Except that in this case, Sarah is the killer. | |

Minimalist Cast: There are a grand total of four characters in the movie though depending on how you interpret things it could be as few as three or as many as six. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Silent House / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Her father's overbearing demeanor and joking "If everyone just did as I said, we wouldn't have a problem!" hint at the dynamic between him and her uncle when it came to abusing Sarah - he was the instigator, while Peter largely looked on and did nothing. | |

Fan Disservice | |
| Silent House / int_c660bc15 | comment |
Fan Disservice: While Sarah's cleavage is shown frequently, it's generally marred by the blood and the situation such as when the camera has a direct shot down her shirt, but only because she's leaning over her father's body. | |

Closed Circle | |
| Silent House / int_e2a6ebc1 | comment |
Closed Circle: The house is isolated in the country. The landlines haven't been hooked up. There's no cell coverage. The electricity is disconnected due to disuse. The windows are boarded up with plywood due to multiple burglaries. Most of the doors are locked with either padlocks or are older ones that require a key to unlock it from inside. | |

The Oner | |
| Silent House / int_e7e558 | comment |
The Oner: Unlike the film it is a remake of, it is not a single continuous shot. However, it is composed of only a handful of continuous takes simaliar to the 1948 film Rope. | |

All Just a Dream | |
| Silent House / int_ea85d6ea | comment |
All Just a Dream: Sarah was abused as a child. The film is about her taking revenge on her abuser and, to a lesser degree, on the one who knew and took photos and did nothing to stop it. | |

Haunted House | |
| Silent House / int_f9439c84 | comment |
Haunted House: By all appearances, the eponymous house, including mysterious apparitions and bleeding walls. Turns out to be a subverted case. All the seemingly supernatural occurrences are a product of Sarah's broken mind as it tries to piece together the trauma she went through. | |
