Review of The Legend of Hell House (1973) by Justin A — 20 Feb 2015
Boring and dreadfully slow. Outside of some interesting silhouettes of apparitions, the movie didn't instill any general fear or scares. It is way too tame by today's standards and can't hold up.
In fact, I have a hard time believing this held up that well in 1973, as objects randomly flying around by ghosts was more of the kind of thing you would see in a 1950s William Castle movie. The only reason to MAYBE see this movie would be to see Roddy McDowall acting over-the-top, but why bother? You can see him act over-the-top in several movies.
I just can't recommend this movie. I was way too bored.
