Review of House on Haunted Hill (1959) by Jared B — 09 Jul 2008

"I rented a haunted house so my wife could have a party; A haunted house party. She's so amusing.".

An actually scary movie!.... at least, when watched late at night with way to much caffeine. Yes, there are a lot of plot holes, and yes, characters to those common stupid things like going into a dark rooms alone, even though terrifying things have happened to them already. The introduction is perfect, and the first hour makes for a wonderfulling creepy\thrilling movie. Unfortunately, the last 15 minutes dissipates the constantly building tension, though somehow it keeps from completely ruining the movie.
