My wife and I have been going through a bunch of classic Haunted House movies and I was always tangentially aware of this one, but never have seen it.
Dear god, this movie is something. What that thing is, is one of those “So bad it’s good” type of films. Between the pseudo science technobabble, oppressive Britishness, obvious influences for Dan Aykroyd’s Ghostbusters, dry humping banisters, and the spine-chilling reveal that the killer was… short…
And, while I really love the gems of awful cinema you have been finding recently (Seriously how many drugs were done during the making of Plankton?) Hell House one feels like a good old fashioned MST style film to riff.
