Horror In '99: Looking Back At The Haunting & House On Haunted Hill
Рет қаралды 31,343
2 ай бұрынCompilation Video:
In the late 1990s, a surge of horror remakes dominated the box office, with Dark Castle Entertainment emerging as a notable player in the scene. Specializing in revamping the works of horror maestro William Castle, the production company carved its niche in the industry. Meanwhile, amidst the sea of forgotten films lies 1999's The Haunting, remembered chiefly for a sudden and shocking decapitation scene involving Owen Wilson's character. Yet, despite this memorable moment, the film's overall impact remains underwhelming. Delving into the project's turbulent history, we uncover how Stephen King's departure and Spielberg's initial involvement shaped Jan De Bont's eerie ghost story. Join us as we unravel the mysteries behind this curious cinematic endeavor.

House on haunted hill is one of my favorite movies ever. It’s super creepy in some places but also hilariously dark. Chris Kattan yelling “YOU GIVE ME MY DAMN CHECK RIGHT NOW I WANT IT SO YOU GIVE IT “ lives rent free in my head.

I loved the ending where Taye Diggs yelling he was adopted being what makes the house let them go because neither of them were the right people for the house/ghosts to get revenge on. Plus them getting the money made me happy as a 16yr old. I also still quote this movie regularly, mostly Chris Kattan’s lines “I want it - so you give it!”

The Haunting remake is a perfect example of why sometimes less is more. We don't even see a glimpse of a ghost in the original film. And it was a lot more effective than the special effects overload we're subjected to in the remake. The cast was good and the house looked amazing. But other than that, it just didn't work out. And even though the same could be said for much of House on Haunted Hill, I find the remake to that movie to be a little bit better overall. Sure they go a bit crazy with the special effects there too but it's not as extreme as The Haunting remake.

@@ItsaKindOfMagic86 I grew up on the black & white originals of all the great horror movies (Friday night midnight movies!). My original comment was about the first subject - The Haunting (1963) - it didn't need any special CGI effects, and was much like a Hitchcock thriller. Fear was palpable just from sound and camera work. But my comment turned out to be just as valid for the Vincent Price classic too. Granted, it's cheesy by modern standards, but I will still stand by it.

I'm actually surprised that a lot of movies that were a bomb or with poorly critic received, are those I like the most The Haunting on Hill House is one of my top 20 favorites. And I usually watch it again once or twice a year when I make my "Frightening October" marathon to Halloween. And it really keeps being pretty good for me. There are some "issues" that cannot be denied, but is a solid 7.5/10 (and THAT head scene is one of my favorites scenes ever) House on haunted hill is pretty good, its sequel not so much. All in all a good 5.5/10 or even 6/10 Is also ony top 20, and part of my "Frightening October" marathon, but is way down below The Haunting on Hill House Edit to add: Rose Red is also in my list. I'm a freaking Stephen King 👑 fan and I watch almost all his movies adaptations (not all good, I'm still not a fan of the new The Stand miniseries but is ok)

The Haunting is part of a slew of big-budget late 90s genre films that had all the right elements but are so weakly scripted and poorly put together that they fail hard in spite of themselves. (See also: John Carpenter's Vampires, Sleepy Hollow, Spawn, Deep Blue Sea, Lake Placid, Virus, and Dracula 2000.) House on Haunted Hill is a curio; essentially a bigger-budgeted version of the kind of inventive, low-rent, DTV horror effort more typically associated with Stuart Gordon or Charles Band, with all the attendant pros and cons that implies.
