Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 8/10 --
Dumb and corny and reliant to a ludicrous degree on Price's withering sarcasm, but it not only knows what it is, it loves being what it is.

Vincent Price with a great performance

If one had to pick the best of the campy horror films that made [Castle's] reputation, this 1958 feature would probably be it.

Chicago Reader
The film has a genuinely creepy atmosphere and boasts at least one leap-outa-your-seat shock moment.

A meticulous homage to Clovis Trouille

...a far-from-classic misfire from an exceedingly erratic director.

...the device, however, is more ludicrous than exciting. As a haunted-house yarn, the film rates "fair," but no higher.

Product Description:
Vincent Price has one of his juiciest roles in this haunted-house thriller as millionaire playboy Frederick Loren, who invites five guests out to a genuine haunted house, offering them each $10,000 if they spend the night. Elisha Cook Jr. plays one of the guests, a nervous alcoholic who has been in this house before and witnessed some terrible things. Mr. Loren's beautiful but treacherous wife (Carol Ohmart) is also present--and might be out to kill Frederick during the course of the evening; then again, he might be out to kill her. Severed heads, a skeleton, an acid vat, ghostly screams, and a noose that creeps around on its own and strangles unsuspecting victims are just some of the treats in a film that has been spooking delighted audiences on late-night TV for decades. Producer-director William Castle (THE TINGLER) claimed this was filmed in a process called Emergo, which meant that at a key moment a glow-in-the-dark skeleton on a wire was rigged to sail over the audience's heads. The skeleton is long since gone, but the goofy thrills remain in this classic tale, from a script by Robb White.

Elizabethtown, PA US -- April, 8, 2010
What a great movie, classic horror is an understatement. I love this movie in color. It was so well done the colors are all period correct. The black and white version has a little different feel. I found it fun to compare both versions of the film. It is my hope that a new generation enjoys this movie as much as I
