Summary: Was this movie filmed in cheese-o-vision?
Review: This movie was the most awful thing I have ever seen! I tried as hard as I could to find at least one thing funny about this movie, but alas, the humor cup runneth dry. The only things you should run from are people who recommend this movie, and the movie itself. If you want to sink $100+ dollars into this movie, you were either in it and want to burn every copy possible, or you haven't seen a real horror movie.

Summary: Watch it with the lights off!
Review: The special effects as beautiful as they were, are kept to a minimum as the viewer descends into a spiral cascade of fright through out the structure of the story. The story is so saturated with images and dialoge that it ties you down and just like the house it won't let you get away. It seems to become a struggle to just breath and turn away from the images interpreted. I can assure you that once you finish watching House on Haunted Hill, its images will haunt you even after the tv has been turned off. Enjoy!

Summary: It's the most cheesiest, most perdictable film ever!
Review: I rented this film and I was very very very much disappointed in it. First of all, the plot was just plain stupid and the acting, ugh, the acting was frightning. I thought the movie was supposed to be that but no. It turns out that House on Haunted Hill is a frivolous 1hr and 30min mess that sould of never been put out again. If you want to laugh really hard then buy it. It's not my money. If you want to be thrilled or scared out of your witts then buy something else because House on Haunted Hill just doesn't cut it. . .at all. It blends comedy, horror(ha ha), and unnecsessary nudity! COME ON!

Summary: Gives Horror A New Meaning
Review: Actually the word should be horrible! Did someone actually work out a plot to this thing? It was nothing more than a collection of grotesque images that were hardly frightening. What was up with that guy stuck in that tank? Other than just another opportunity to throw in a few more flash horror images. And the characters....maybe they would have been more believable as animated figures, but these are performances they were trying to pass off from real actors? The only thing that could have improved it even a little would have been to kill off that SNL guy during the first act!And the ending, oh man! "Okay, we've killed off as many of the characters as we can and still leave someone alive, so what to do with them? Never mind that no one actually defeated the evil spirit, or even really fought it. Nope, we got our horror images in and we got the audiences money, so let's just end it here, since most people by this time have left the theater or turned off the tape, or dvd and won't care anyway." I'm sorry I waisted money on this, and that I actually sat through the whole thing, but if this review can save even one person it'll be worth it!

Summary: If you've seen The Haunting you've already seen this movie..
Review: Okay, maybe this house is "haunted" differntly then the house in "The Haunting", but other then that they are the same two films. 5 people attempt to spend the night in a haunted house...two survive. That's it. I can't go into anymore detail cause there's none to go into. They made the same movie twice.

Summary: Very Disturbing
Review: This movie has some very disturbing images in it. The plot started out well, but then just turned sick, the ending is like pulling a rabbit out of a hat, it never would have happened anywhere else, but Hollywood. A horrible movie.

Summary: Overshadowed by "The Haunting", but darker IS scarier...
Review: This film was overshadowed by the release of another big scary old house movie in 1999 ("The Haunting"), and that's an (expletive deleted) shame, because this one is SOOOOOOOO much better. For one thing, there are actually some scares in this film, and there are some visual moments that are just priceless. If parts of the film come off as a tad silly, it's only because it's to be expected. This IS a remake of a film that was 90% farce, you know. Don't let any reviews you've heard complaining of a thin plot (certainly not any worse than most films, or even a lot of CLASSIC films [e.g., how complex was the plot of "Alien"?] ) or weak acting (which doesn't seem to have put the skids on Leonardo DiCaprio's career) stop you from seeing this film. The only reason I didn't give it FIVE stars was the sad fact that at the very, very end of the movie, the cornball effect goes just a little bit into overdrive. Still, overall a really good ride.

Summary: Wow! That was a good movie!
Review: I really thought this was a good movie: It was suspenseful, scary, funny, action-packed, and definitly werid. I liked the TV girl, too bad she was the first to...I can't say. The creature at the end wasn't the best but I dealt with it. The roller coaster scene was awsome too, especially with surrond sound DVD quality. Great movie!

Summary: Talk About A Dive Of A Movie
Review: Probably, the worst movie I ever saw. Not only did the plot diminish as the movie progressed, but the acting was ridiculous. This was a poor attempt on the writers to make a scary movie out of a nothing plot and it wasn't even that scary. More or less, it was stupid and the idea was very unclear. After watching it, I couldn't tell you what it was about. Well, Actually, it was about a house on haunted hill, but who didn't know that already. 5 people visit it and I bet you can quess what happens from here. They die, amazing. Yeah right. What ever happens to you don't and I mean don't, see this disgrace of a movie.
