The House of Yes (1997)

In the darkly comedic universe of 'The House of Yes', we follow Marty, a New York college student, who naively decides to bring his fiancée, Lesly, for a Thanksgiving visit to his family's grand, foreboding house in D.C. This decision, combined with his mere presence, stirs the hidden undercurrents of his peculiar family. The matriarch, Mrs. Pascal, in a futile attempt to maintain peace, conceals the kitchen knives, but her efforts prove insufficient against the impending chaos. The homecoming ignites a series of unfortunate events, revealing the depths of the dysfunction that festers within the family. The most unsettling revelation emerges in the form of the intense affection between Marty and his sister, the eccentric 'Jackie-O'. Her anticipation of Marty's arrival eclipses into an obsession, a fixation that is not only shared but reciprocated by her brother. With the unexpected arrival of Lesly, the equilibrium of the household is disturbed. The veil of normalcy lifts to expose a family fraught with problems, where 'Jackie-O's obsession is merely the tip of the iceberg in this peculiar family's catalogue of issues. 'The House of Yes' is a twisted comedy that unfurls in an ancient abode, where old secrets re-emerge and familial ties are tested in the most unusual ways.
