Review of House on Haunted Hill (1999) by Rox22 — 25 Jan 2013
A fairly good Popcorn horror flick. It's no masterpiece and nowhere near as good as the original. On its own, it is highly entertaining with some masterful & memorable performances by Geoffrey Rush & Famke Janssen.
A shame about the the ending as the CG effects are unconvincing and kind of ruin the flow of the narrative up to that point. Practical effects would have been far better in this instance as it worked really well for the rest of the film.
Overall: A great movie to watch with a bowl of popcorn at home on a dark and stormy night.
