    It’s a Google search for people who don’t want to read a lengthy article. That’s fine. But selling it as the multigenerational story of a family with all the horrors of the Marquis de Sade is a bit of a stretch.

    “House of Hammer,” of course, accentuates the demented. It’s here to titillate, then evoke disgust. Some enlightenment may be conveyed in that process, but perceive it or not, you’re mostly gonna feel manhandled.

    House of Hammer clearly has a story to tell, but its salacious approach lacks the focus or discipline to do its most intriguing aspects justice.
