Davidson shows he may not have the chops to carry a horror film, while DeMonaco fails to deliver any thrills this time. Ultimately, it’s a by-the-numbers effort that proves quite disappointing.

Detroit News

Davidson is in over his head conveying any sense of suspense or danger, and the blood-soaked climax is plays like a live action video game fantasy come to life.

Rated: D-

AV Club

While The Home doesn’t distinguish itself in terms of style or subtext (one can argue that it doesn’t have any of the latter), it at least throws out just enough gross-out imagery to keep a viewer awake.

Rated: C

The Home is the sum of many underwhelming parts ... It feels like an imitation horror film, from television-y cinematography to ideas that are thrown at the wall in the hope that something sticks.

Rated: 2/5

Everything's Interesting

Sure, it might take too long to get there, but once THE HOME really gets going, it’s a vicious broadside against the elderly. How often can you say that? ... This movie straight-up hates old people, and you know what? It might be right to.

Assignment X

DeMonaco maintains a sense of constricting creepiness throughout, culminating in a proper blowout.

Ridiculous. Boring. Lazy. Need I go on? Ok: Pete Davidson cant hold a movie let alone a horror movie. The story is ridiculous and it doesnt earn the ending. Huge skip

The movie takes a long time to get going but once it hits its stride, the movie is quite enjoyable. I went in with very low expectations and was pleasantly surprised with storyline. Maybe is a better streaming movie, but I enjoyed the Home.

I won't say much, but it was an original take on an idea some will recognize from other films. Good ambience then it goes hard like Texas Chainsaw to finish. Really enjoyed it, Davidson was likeable as the lead and the villains worked. Modern horror bores me to death most of the time, this one didn't.
