HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL

House On Haunted Hill Movie Review

A rich business man (horror legend Vincent Price) is having a haunted house party and offers complete strangers $10,000 each if they can spend an entire night in his house on--you guessed it--Haunted Hill. Many people know the remake of this film, but this is the original (1959), and in my opinion, better of the films. Price is as great as ever here and the supporting cast is pretty good as well, particularly the oft-disturbed Nora Manning (Carolyn Craig), who brings with her, aside from talented acting, quite a set of lungs.

For the Scream fans

This movie was in a few ways ahead of its time, with some pretty creepy moments and a few twists and turns. Of course it also has the terrible dialogue and, at times, drags out quite a bit; however, if you are one who is into much older horror films, this one is a must.
