Ty Burr Boston Globe A sloppy slapstick throwback to long gone bottom-of-the-bill fare like The Ghost and Mr. Chicken. Rated: 1.5/4 Oct 4, 2002 Full Review Lou Lumenick New York Post More entertaining than much of the big-studio schlock out there. Rated: 2/4 Sep 13, 2002 Full Review Mark Rahner Seattle Times The campy results make Mel Brooks' Borscht Belt schtick look sophisticated. Rated: 2/4 Aug 23, 2002 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …proudly displays its wares by having a corny breast-related pun its the title; you know what you’re getting in a package like this…if you like your comedy turned up to very very silly indeed, funny women like Elvira have every right to crack wise.. Rated: 3/5 Dec 3, 2024 Full Review Dev Shea 1428 Elm There’s murder, suicide, adultery and supernatural occurrences. Unlike Vladimir Hellsubus, you won’t want to tie two pillows to your head to block out the noise. This film will have you laughing at its ridiculousness. Sep 15, 2022 Full Review David Reddish Queerty Ok, so Elviras Haunted Hills isnt exactly The Witch, but it is a fun and campy romp. Rated: 3/4 Mar 13, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Jeffrey P If nothing else, it’s entertaining. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/14/24 Full Review Charles P Delightfully goofy and cheesy in a comic romp way that's harmless overall and rarely seen anymore. Great for a wide-age-range audience or just some Halloween atmosphere any time of year, especially those nights when you can't quite sleep. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/29/24 Full Review David W Another hugely enjoyable outing from the Mistress of Darkness. Bawdy sight gags, slapstick humour and double entendre abound in what is a funny and very likeable, light horror comedy. The chesty one is as entertainingly watchable and hugely endearing as always. The supporting cast are well up for the goofy, low budget, gothic proceedings as well, especially the excellent Richard O'brien. A shame that more Elvira movies weren't made as the character had a lot of legs, no pun intended. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/01/23 Full Review Audience Member I love that Peterson is paying homage to the old Poe classics and that she's giving all her heart. The jokes just don't really land this time around. It's not like Elvira humor needs to be sophisticated, the lower-brow the better. But most of this just comes off as corny. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/22 Full Review Audience Member Elvira aka Cassandra Peterson, does it again. in this campy slapstick horror follow up, to 1988's Elvira: Mistress of the Dark. very funny, with great & fun performances all round. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Horrible cringe Elvira movie and this has no real connection whatsoever to the original movie. This is think this came out 15 years after the original and it basically took the first movie and said we forgot about it. This isn't even a sequel, it's trying to be different than the original. If it was trying to be an anthology it's a boring one and I just don't care. I'm glad Hollywood only made 2 of these films. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Read all reviews
