James G @Jmgarvin Jan 4 It's neat to see the mansion in Las Vegas, NM. The casting is meh and they try, oh they try. Even MST3K would struggle with this one. See more Ian S Dec 27 Very average Two leads kept it ticking along , barely. See more Mike T Apr 13 Nothing fabulous here yet still a decent haunted mansion film with a few relatively fresh (for its time) takes on the subject. Neither a gore fest nor a T&A horror film. I still have appreciation for the practical effects made with small budgets. See more James Feb 26 I was young this was one of the movies I seen on HBO. It was late at night. This movie mess with my mind. I was at home alone. I forgot but I was late My mom told me to go into the basement to get the clothes out the dryer. You know what happened I heard a bang then I ran up the stairs See more Ana B 03/23/2024 Good Friday night popcorn 🍿 movie. I'd watch it again. As far as haunted houses go, this one's really good. See more Blobbo X @Blobbo 06/07/2023 Positively reeks of '70's movie-of-the-week-ness ---even though having apparently been theatrically released. Dime store level special effects, plot, score,acting, etc. From the era of - and about as scary as - Love Boat. See more Read all reviews
