Hokum: A Balance of Cheapness and Luxury
Hokum is an enjoyable horror film that will probably get a little under your skin, but it isn’t the tour de force that you might be expecting.

A newlywed couple move into their new house. What they don't realize is that the previous owner of the house raised a monstrous creature from the depths of hell! Now it's coming back to make up for lost time. The Goblin, set free from its dark prison within the earth, lays waste to the Missouri countryside, hungry to mangle or kill anything or anyone in its path. The young people, trapped inside the house, are pushed to the nightmarish extremes, forced to retaliate...or become the next victim of...the GOBLIN! Goblin delivers unbelievable scenes of violence and gore...just pray he doesn't deliver them to your doorstep!
