Ariel S A spooky, campy classic! House on Haunted Hill (1959) is all eerie vibes, old-school charm, and Vincent Price at his best. It’s fun, weird, and way ahead of its time. A must-watch for vintage horror fans. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/24/25 Full Review Madoka A Fantastic. Spooky. Funny. Great product! Really good!

Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/25/25 Full Review Hector I Rather short film, 1h10 min (not 1h32 as it says on the site) and very interesting. We follow a real murder party! All guests must stay overnight in the haunted mansion of a rich and eccentric character to collect a large sum of money. The main character, Vincent Price, has an undeniable charisma, as does his beautiful wife (the uncommonly beautiful Carol Ohmart). He's also quite disturbing. From the outside, the mansion is truly magnificent and is a Los Angeles house that actually exists, the Hennis House. It looks like some kind of Mayan temple, which is pretty crazy. The interior is much more commonplace. I think the Cluedo atmosphere of the film is great. It's all about suspicion between Vincent Price and his guests, between him and his wife, and between the guests themselves. I must say, it's quite successful, and gripping, despite the rather abrupt ending. It's a very enjoyable film that hasn't aged a bit, and some scenes are even quite scary if you let yourself be carried along. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/11/25 Full Review Omar G House on Haunted Hill (1959). Directed by William Castle, with Vincent Price, Carol Ohmart, Carolyn Craig and Elisha Cook. The plot involves people spending the night in a house because Frederick Loren needs witnesses because he must kill his wife Annabelle Loren and her lover in self-defense before they kill him. Too bad the wife Annabelle Loren played by Carol Ohmart has a very sexy body, a waste. The brunette Nora Manning played by Carolyn Craig, they want to drive her crazy. Maybe Loren should get his beauty wife hooked on drugs but he didn't want to keep her, he can get another wife anyway. The face well known from several movies in the TV in the 80s and 90s of Vincent Price is supposed to have the size of Q.B with 6'4". The romantic interest between jokes and anger between Nora and Lance which contrasts with the Lorens. The best would be Carol Ohmart in a baby doll, going down the stairs. The concept was like Dial M for Murder (1954), but in reverse the wife and the lover want to kill the cuckold who does not let him, maybe this was the fourth wife who kills. Some nonsense like the drop of blood worthy of scientific studies, the old woman who floats, the scene of the rope moved by telekines and the teleportation of Annabelle Loren hanging, the severed head and maybe the pool with acid. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/18/24 Full Review John W It was a decent movie, much better acting than most modern actors, but the movie is a little bit boring. Its good but not worth a rewatch. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Read all reviews
