Summary: THE BEST MOVIE I'VE EVER SEEN!
Review: For a Disney movie, I am VERY surprised...some parts were VERY scary, like the part with the ghost of Sally Shine, and the green rain...! OHH! I get chills when I watch that part...the cast was wonderful, Kirsten Dunst was perfect for the role of Anna...and so was Steven Guttenburg as Buzzy...the whole story was not corney as I thought a Disney movie's "scary" movie would be...the characters like Mrs. Partridge and Gilbert, the snobby actor, and the beautiful Claire Poulet...you've all gotta see this...even grown-ups, it's also a VERY good mystery!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Its alright for the younger ones.
Review: I bought this movie last year when I was at disney world. when I got home about a week later, i popped it into the DVD player and suffered thew the 89 minutes of a little kid horror movie. This movie might be scary for say...a 7 year old, but someone in there teens, like my-self, its going to be some what dull! it does have a good story line and everything, its just not scary! its about as scary as goosebumps! if that! This movie is great for the family, but not for the teens!

Review: I don't care how good this movie is. There's no way I would spend a hundred and four bucks on a movie I could tape off the Disney channel for free.

Summary: the best movie I ever saw
Review: I first time I saw the Tower of Terror movie was in 1997 and then again in 2000 on the Disney channel. When I first went on the ride in Disney World it was weird but when I saw the movie I understood it more. Now since I taped it I get to watch it before I go to Disney World. I think if you don't know what the ride is about, watch the movie first and then you get the idea. But the thrilling part is the drops cause I got to feel what it's like to be actors in the movie when they were falling when they went down. You really shouldn't miss this movie cause there is a lot of good effects in it, and a cool movie. ENJOY! :-)

Summary: Anthony Michaels review of "The Tower of Terror"
Review: I'd say that this movie was in between. It wasn't that bad, but it wasn't that good either. The special effects were okay. The acting was fine, but it's story got kind of weak toward the end of the movie. Steve Guttenberg had done much better in some of his other films, as well. The one thing that could have been improved was the fact that the same thing kept repeating itself. "You lied to me!", later in the movie - "You said you were going to do it, but you lied!", then again - "I'm a fake!" Over and over. It would have been better had they not done that.

ALSO WITH STEVE GUTTENBERG

Summary: Perfect Blend Of Scary Moments And Softness
Review: Imagine, you were at the worlds most luxurious hotel, the Hollywood Tower Hotel. As you step into the elevator, you wave to the other guests, not knowing this was the last time you'd ever see that crowd again. You count the floors as the elevator proceeds. Fifth floor, sixth floor, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth,- The elevator lurches to a stop. The Bellboy frowns, and punches the '11' button again. Something was wrong. Then the elevator does move, but not upward. It falls,picking up speed by the minute. You're nearing the ground. Then-

The Hotel is now closed. It is supposedly haunted now. Only a few people know the real story. Was the strange event just a freak of nature,- or did someone mean it to be that way?

Summary: The Mystery of the Hollywood Tower Hotel!
Review: Steve Guttenberg is Buzzy Crocker, a Hollywood reporter whose latest stories tend to grace the covers of supermarket tabloids. Buzzy's been blacklisted from the "real" papers ever since one of his news-breaking stories proved to be false. Now Buzzy concocts most of his stories himself by dressing his lovely niece Anna (Kirsten Dunst) in ghost and Alien costumes, taking photos, and writing tales of shock and horror to go with them. But when an old spinster woman named Abigail Gregory from the local nut-house pays Buzzy a visit, he's off on the story of a lifetime, to solve the mystery of the Hollywood Tower Hotel, a story that's sure to get him back into the real newspaper business.
It seems that back in Hollywood's heyday, Shirley Temple-like child star Sally Shine, her nanny Emeline Partridge, the hotel owner's bumbling bellhop son Dewey, aspiring singer Claire Poulet, and Claire's boyfriend Gilbert, all disappeared one Halloween night in the Hotel elevator on their way to a party on the top floor. Ever since that fateful night, the Hollywood Tower Hotel has been shut down, and whatever happened to those five unfortunate souls has been a mystery. But Abigail claims to know the secret. She was there that night, and she believes that Sally Shine's nanny was a witch! Insanely jealous of the child, Emeline Partridge cast a horrible spell over the girl, but the spell backfired and left the inhabitants of the elevator trapped in limbo, left to haunt the Hollywood Tower Hotel until the spell is finished, or broken. Only then will they meet their doom, or else be able to rejoin the party they had originally been on their way to, a ghostly party that still goes on every Halloween night in the hopes that the missing guests will finally arrive.
Now Buzzy is on a mission, and finds himself picking up partners at every turn. First he enlists the help of his beautiful and spunky niece Anna, then recruits an odd "dude" named "Q" to help, since he IS the great grandson of the original owner AND the grandson of the missing bellhop. Before he knows it, former boss Jill Perry comes along for the ride, and the ghosts are eager to have the puzzle solved too.
Disney's Tower of Terror is a great thrill ride of a TV movie, just like the actual ride it's based on, The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror at the Disney-MGM Studios Theme Park in Florida. The movie is great family entertainment, full of humor, some tame scares, superb music, and a great cast. Steve Guttenberg is likeable as always, and Kirsten Dunst is as dreamy as ever, even if they did make her dress-down and tighten back her beautiful hair for most of the film. Tower of Terror is a must own video for any fan of the cast, the Disney theme parks, or fun, family films in general. Now lets hope Disney gives us a DVD someday.

Rating: 5 stars
