3 Classic Horrors Of The Silver Screen - Vol. 1 - Horror Hotel / The Terror / The Corpse Vanishes (DVD)

Advantages: A Bucket of Blood and House on Haunted Hill
Disadvantages: The Ghoul

...A Bucket of Blood is one of my favourite classics. An enjoyable 'Wax Museum' genre that takes a slightly different approach. This time, the artist is actually very slow witted and has no talent, as you will see. He works at a coffee shop full of poets and art buffs and wants so desperately to join their world. So, one thing leads to another, and, if your familiar with the genre, you know how it goes. House on Haunted Hill is one of the great classics of all time. A brilliant classic, but is it horror or is it murder-mystery. To answer that question, i would have to spoil it. So, watch and find out for yourself, you won't be dissappointed. Unfortunately, The Ghoul is probably one of Karloff's worst. Karloff is one of my favourites, but he doesn't really act in this one. The story is very slow, and doesn't build up to... Read review

Advantages: Enjoyable Scary
Disadvantages: True Story - How awful

...I am reviewing the movie The Amityville Horror I watched this movie last night on television and I have to admit I was a little creeped out. And apparently it is a true story. So I had the hebbi geebies throughout. The Story A family decide to buy a house in the country, which is a great bargain, only to find out after that the previous family had been murdered in the house. That's the reason for the cheap sale. They decided to keep the house as it's only a house, Houses don't murder people, people murder People. All goes ok in the house until the husband starts acting weird and the daughter is seeing things. What now follows is 28 days of sheer terror for the family. The Cast: Ryan Reynolds plays George, the new man of the house after he married a widow with three children. The children are only getting used to him... Read review
