Financially speaking, I agree home invasion flicks are pretty easy on production budgets; a low-cost spin on Haunted Houses. It's cheaper to use human villains than CGI'd spirits & practical effects.

Psychologically speaking, I think the home represents the ultimate in dismay. The place from which you now have nowhere left to run to. A personal safety dead end... and who likes those?

For the most part I find the Home Invasion genre more boring than anything else. I see it's status as more "panhandle-ish" than "popular".
