		The House in William Castle's original was a Frank Lloyd Wright house, and it stood out for two reasons: first, it was phenomenally ugly, especially in the manner in which Castle's camera captured it; and second, it seemed the least likely setting for a ghost story that anyone could possibly imagine.
		The new, utterly different House is all verticals, tall and thin and perched atop a cliff overlooking the ocean.
		As the movie goes on, we see the house is full of wicked-looking torture devices, and the door to the room in which Vannacutt was performing a vivisection at the time of the riot is marked "Hygiene".

	TheMovieBoy Review: House on Haunted Hill (1999)
		While "The Haunting" was more sophisticated, with a superior cast, a budget of around $80-million, and a kid-friendly PG-13 rating, "House on Haunted Hill" is a gory, atmospheric, $20-million, R-rated spookathon.
		The catch, it turns out, is that the house really is being haunted by the maniacal doctor (Jeffrey Combs) who was killed in 1931, and that all five guests are unknowingly related to the five inmates who survived decades before.
		Admittedly, "House on Haunted Hill" has a zinger of a premise, a sort of ghastly rendition of 1993's "Indecent Proposal," in which people were asked if they'd cheat on their spouse for one night, and a million smackers, with Robert Redford.

	House On Haunted Hill (1999)
		This is a fairly dynamic soundtrack as you would expect of a film set in a haunted house, with a wide variety in the levels of dialogue and sound effects as a result of reactions to various situations.
		House On Haunted Hill (1999) is a very poor movie given an almost reference quality video and audio transfer, and an extras package that is at least quantitatively extensive if not qualitatively so.
		House On Haunted Hill (1999) is a good example of how modern filmmakers have in general forgotten how to make films and think that a bunch of cool effects will hide the obvious flaws like lack of a creditable plot, mediocre acting and so on.

	Scifilm -- Reviews, HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL (1999)
		Both Zemeckis and Silver also consider themselves long-time fans of William Castle's HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL and, as such, they decided a remake of that film would be the perfect inaugural motion picture for Dark Castle Entertainment.
		HOUSE moves along at a good pace and the fl and white characters are actually acceptable within that first hour.
		The first hour of the new HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL is a pretty enjoyable affair, primarily due to Geoffrey Rush, Famke Janssen, Chris Kattan and, in his limited appearances, Jeffrey Combs.

	House On Haunted Hill / *** (1999)
		"House On Haunted Hill" is a skillful horror movie, badly written, but photographed with such precision and brilliance that the story's inadequacies are no problem.
		Like "The Haunting," a visual masterpiece with a script weaker than a wet noodle, this is a film without story or meaning, other than to substitute chilly plot details with graphic and eerie camera shots.
		Four people who have nothing in common are invited to this "house" by Steven Price, played by Geoffrey Rush, who owns a carnival of horrors, and is one of the most mysterious men of his time (indeed, this may be a sign of Rush trying to replace Vincent Price's original role).

		Although, when his equally devilish and vindictive wife, Evelyn (Famke Janssen), decides she wants to celebrate her birthday at the infamous 'House on Haunted Hill', Price tries to change the invitations on her, but is uped one by the dark spirits that lurk inside the house.
		The house used to be a mental hospital for the criminally insane many, many years ago.
		When things begin to go awry and the house goes to lockdown, the guests begin to believe, as Pritchard does, that the house is haunted, but Price suspects his vile wife, who he would rather see dead.

		That's the premise of "House on Haunted Hill", a modern remake of director William Castle's campy 1958 horror classic starring Vincent Price.
		In that film, Price played an impresario who kowtows to his wife's demand that he throw her a private party in a haunted house.
		I love haunted house movies, but after last summer's big-budget "The Haunting," and now "House on Haunted Hill", that love affair is wearing thin.

	DVD Review - House On Haunted Hill (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		For the most part, recent horror movies just could not convince with their Generation X approach, their overly obtrusive use of visual effects or even because it turned out that the films were a far cry from the genre after all.
		While watching "House On Haunted Hill" for the first time in a long while I was witnessing a well-done adaptation of a previously done movie.
		Much of the horror in the film actually stems from the suggestive visuals rather than open gore, and the almost surreal atmosphere of the house is nicely captured, leaving the viewer in the dark for the most part whether he actually witnesses events unfold, or figments of the characters’ imaginations.

	DVDFILE.COM: THE HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL (1999) review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		For the horror film, 1999 turned out to be the "year of the haunted house," with not one but two remakes of old films centered around gothic old mansions.
		While the original version of THE HAUNTING is a legitimate horror classic (as the dismal 1999 update ably proved), the original THE HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL was just fun and campy so was probably better suited for a modern updating.
		Colors are eye-popping, and as THE HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL is a very dark and stylized film, fl level is appropriately "dead on" and the contrast is not too weak nor to strong.

	EI > Reviews > The House on Haunted Hill (1999)
		As for House on Haunted Hill, the William Malone-directed remake of the 1958 classic, it's a bread-and-butter horror movie, the type of product that audiences lose their taste for when turning their calendars to November.
		The cast of Haunted Hill is nearly as diverse as the characters they play, and aside from Rush, none bears any significant screen presence.
		The other haunted house picture for 1999, The Haunting, wanted to back up its scares with a dicey back story, but that only made the film more confusing than reasonably frightening.

	THE CINEMA LASER DVD REVIEW-- HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL (1999)
		The 1999 version of HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL ($20) is a whole lot of fun, especially if you are in the mood for a film that hearkens back to the days when Hollywood produced scary, haunted house flicks, like the original William Castle production upon which this film is based.
		HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL delivers a deliciously creepy atmosphere for most of its running time, but thing starts to fall apart somewhat in the last reel.
		HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL is presented at 1.78:1 and the DVD features the anamorphic enhancement for playback on 16:9 displays.

		Within the first scene there is gore (surgery on a wide awake man), violence (the inmates of the asylum break loose and attack the staff), and nudity (uniforms ripped open on the women).
		This is crucial to the plot (Hill House is not the same murder house from the original, it's a former asylum for the criminally insane where torture and experimentations are done on the inmates).
		The guest's trip to the house is still via several hearse and from this point much of the original plot is maintained.

		Unlike "The Haunting," "The House on Haunted Hill," is not afraid to graphically pick off its characters one by one in a grizzly manor to provoke horrifying fright in an audience.
		There are three forces at work here-- the ghosts who haunt the house, the humans who are trapped in it, and the Darkness that lives beneath it.
		from Co. Durham, UK (USA - 1999): Six strangers are invited to a 'haunted house' party at a former asylum - the scene of a massacre many years earlier, when inmates rebelled against the psychotic chief surgeon (Jeffrey Combs) - and the guests are assailed by restless spirits with a murderous agenda...

	House on Haunted Hill (1999)
		The House on Haunted Hill is no exception, as it takes B-movie impresario William Castle's 1958 camp-horror classic of the same name and retools it with all of the glitz, gloss, and special effects its $19 million budget could buy.
		Using light and shadows, Don Davis' chill-inducing score, leaking blood, and the audience's anticipation of what might be lurking around the next corner, director William Malone manages to wrench a lot of suspense out of the hoariest of devices.
		This House was co-produced by William Castle's daughter, Terry, and it's plain to see that this was meant, at least in part, as a tribute to her dad.

		First up was the remake of The Haunting (1999), and this was followed variously by the amazing successes of The Blair Witch Project (1999) and The Sixth Sense (1999), as well as the likes of Stigmata (1999), Stir of Echoes (1999) and Tim Burton’s Sleepy Hollow (1999).
		Perhaps the film’s biggest departure over the original is that it is no longer a haunted house thriller wherein the supernatural was revealed to be of purely mundane origin at the end.
		This allows Malone to quite adeptly play a haunted house carnival ride game dallying between whether what is going on is a real haunting, faked as part of the birthday party or a murder mystery plot.

	Classic-Horror Review of House on Haunted Hill (1999)
		House on Haunted Hill is one of the most entertaining, well-made haunted house films I've seen in awhile.
		The opening dramatic sequence is also brilliant, and in a wonderful, darkly comic but disturbing way shows us the history of the house on Haunted Hill while surrealistically catapulting us into the present and explaining how our present cast ends up there.
		Note on the DVD: House on Haunted Hill has one of the better collections of extras I've seen (although not as impressive as the Phantasm Limited Edition DVD), from featurettes contrasting the 1958 version with the present one to numerous special effects featurettes, excellent deleted scenes, and a great director's commentary.

		Evelyn Price (Famke Janssen) from her bubble bath - and she thinks this House on Haunted Hill is a spiffy place to have her upcoming birthday party, and tells her hubby, thrill ride designer and amusement park magnate Stephen Price (Geoffrey Rush) so.
		His idea is to offer one million dollars to anyone surviving the night in the House; his criteria is to invite people he knows would do anything for money, including enduring whatever spookhouse tricks he might muster.
		What we know about this modern version is that his grandfather built the House, his father was killed during the renovation, and that he knows far more about the House and it's supernatural denizens than any person should reasonably know.

	At-A-Glance Film Reviews: House On Haunted Hill (1999)
		It's unfortunate that there are good qualities of this movie, not the least of which is Geoffrey Rush's fantastic performance and lunatic character, because they're wasted in a truly wretched finished whole.
		House On Haunted Hill makes a subtle miscalculation and tries to scare us not by the unknown but by the unknowable.
		Unnatural things happen, and clearly we are supposed to be frightened by them, but the truth of the matter is there is no apparent rhyme or reason to the motives or abilities of the evil forces at work.

		Blood drips from ceilings, a ghostly old woman glides through walls, decapitated heads appear in the oddest places, and a vat of acid in the cellar plays a role in a secret plot to eliminate one of the guests.
		I have loved this movie for years and always will, especially the intricate plot, the house itself being a prominent character, and the cliches that seem oddly new when presented here.
		HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL can still shake up a scare among the blood-and-guts crowd, myself included, so give it a try and you will be surprised how effective a film from the 50s can be.

		House on Haunted Hill isn’t as bad as The Haunting (which would be a very hard feat to duplicate), but it’s none too good, either.
		House on Haunted Hill is a flawed film, but it does manage to be amusing on several occasions.
		The house itself is an impressive set, but Malone films in a very staid, traditional style that makes it more than obvious that he comes from a television background.

		The erroneously named House on Haunted Hill (there's no house in sight, and it's actually a cliff, not a hill) has scattered moments that are truly nightmarish, and plenty of opportunities to play mind games on the audience.
		Only the basic plot survives: Seven people are trapped in an allegedly haunted house and must try to survive the night.
		In expanding on the original theme, the remake is wishy-washy about whether the locale is, in itself, evil, or haunted by vengeful ghosts.
