Torrent description
²³ This classic version of "House on Haunted Hill" is one of the most entertaining ³±
²³ examples of the low-budget, black-and-white horror films that used to be such a ³±
²³ mainstay for movie fans. It has few frills, but it does have some thrills, and in ³±
²³ particular it has a cleverly written story that is told at a brisk pace, with a ³±
²³ good deal of interesting and pleasingly macabre detail. ³±
²³ ³±
²³ Horror legend Vincent Price is in his element as the mysterious millionaire who ³±
²³ invites a houseful of guests to spend the night in a supposedly haunted mansion, ³±
²³ and his performance will give his fans everything that they expect. The supporting ³±
²³ cast is solid, led by Elisha Cook, who is very good as a nervous, tipsy character ³±
²³ whose rambling proclamations of doom add the right touch of offbeat suspense. The ³±
²³ settings are given plenty of detail that makes the characters' explorations of the ³±
²³ house even more interesting. ³±
²³ ³±
²³ The story is nicely written for the genre, making very good use of the ³±
²³ possibilities in the setup, throwing in some good turns, and resolving everything ³±
²³ in a resourceful fashion. And it's not without some real suspense - even those who ³±
²³ normally watch low-budget horror features solely for the camp factor might get an ³±
²³ actual start once or twice as everything plays out. And even if you don't find ³±
²³ anything scary, there is plenty here that makes it enjoyable to watch.
