Synopsis; Their relationship on the rocks, a young Brooklyn couple heads to a remote B&B to work things out. But from the moment they arrive at The Happy House it's one disaster after another, and they soon begin to suspect they've wandered into a real life horror movie. Events escalate from weird to terrifying as they contend with the house's batty owner, her imposing son, a moody Swedish lepidopterist, a pedantic English professor, an extraordinarily rare butterfly, the world's best blueberry muffins, a .44 Magnum, a demented serial killer, and one very strict rulebook.

Thoughts;
This was a movie recommended to us by Netflix based on another movie we watched. This movie was dumb, boring and neither scary or funny. The actors were clearly theatre actors, as it’s a different acting style than movies.

The whole plot, a couple on the rocks takes a vacation, they go to this bed and breakfast called “The Happy Place”.  Hildie and her son Skip are very strange, the house rules are stranger and they other guest is a “butterfly” hunter so to speak.  The sheriff shows up to tell them a person escaped from the nearby mental facility and to lock their doors.


Low and behold the escaped person shows up and starts to “stalk” the people at the house. I think the body count was 2, 3 if you count the idiot who gets himself with the ax. Ugg….dumb.
