This isn't a sequel and it has nothing to do with House on the Haunted Hill (original film). They just used that title to get people to watch this film (and to torture them). Do yourself a favor do not watch this film. Such a shame, a sequel had such potential.

Esta secuela de House On Haunted Hill es una espectacular continuación que nos lleva de regreso a la aterradora clínica maldita y que ofrece más horror y muerte. Curiosamente, revela el origen de toda la maldad en la residencia (cosa que la película anterior nunca ha mencionado) y a pesar de su trama simple, es entretenimiento asegurado. Está llena de escenas perturbadoras y terroríficas con buenas dosis de efectos especiales, CGI mejorado en comparación con la entrega anterior y gore. Al igual que la entrega anterior, la critica tampoco valoro esta película y lo triste de ello es que cerro las posibilidades de una tercera entrega. Esta película al menos sirve como cierre de la saga, pero con la escena post créditos que tiene hubiese sido genial otra entrega, ya que House Of Haunted Hill merecía convertirse en una saga. Mi calificación para esta película es un 9/10.

Shallow personnality in characters and predictable archetypes and plot made this horrible to watch. At 10minutes I exactly knew that poor scripting was gonna lead me, a classic american style adventure thriller. The moment they go in the engine room in the attic and open fire to the gear mechanism to "break it" at point blank range just confirmed this as I litterally held my head in my hands out of shame for the guy that wrote this... I couldn't bear to finish it passed 30mins. I adored the 1999 version for what it was and the means they had at the time (and honeslty, how far they went in style exploration in recreating some of the first William Castle's SFX!), and I also enjoyed the original of 1964 which in my opinion was still better entertainment than that 2007 crap.

A cheap cash grab with no scares and poor acting.

Totally one-half of a tomato, I agree with everyone else this movie has plot holes you can drive a truck through, or good to replace a clonazepham.

Despite all of this, Return to House on Haunted Hill does actually deliver the gory goods (for a DTV release, at least).

Rated: 2.7/5

If you've ever wondered what RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK would have been like if Lucio Fulci had directed it, here's your chance to find out: there's almost enough blood to fill the gaping plot holes %u2013 and that's saying something.

There's just too much "down time" and not enough energy to keep the flick afloat.

Return is a movie that starts with twenty stories worth of bottom. And it's all drop from there.

as direct-to-video Halloween thrills go, it's not bad. In fact, it's better than some of the garbage that's being released in the theaters today.

Topples the original in novelty, entertainment, and sheer visuals, period...
