Oh boy, people are going to hate this film, and I love that! And it's because, this first chapter of Welcome To The Blumhouse is the typical story that on paper sounds wonderful but when you a are fairly new director with little experience, translating this story to the screen is not so easy, it will leave the viewers feeling like they have been pranked or being missold too.
I think you can already imagine what feeling "The Lie" will leave on you, right?
However, this will happen depending on where you focus your attention and let me give you a hint: It is not in the youth cast. Since here, the real drama/horror does not focus on their decisions or actions, but on how they affect their loved ones around them.
There is where a series of actions are woven (which will be interesting for some and ridiculous for others) between characters who feel they have no other choice, something downright terrifying.
