House On Haunted Hill (full): Deusdaecon Reviews

[@iamaglassoftea7]

I think Price is an excellent character and surprisingly well written. The actions that you mention to be strange, I think are the ones that make him interesting. Like him wanting to save his wife after just trying to kill her. Price seems to be a man who lives for fun and games. Even his failing marriage is a competition to him. But he still cares for people, including his wife.

[@Scardy]

This one is an old guilty pleasure of mine. For all its faults, I find it to be a genuinely entertaining flick. It’s one I love to pull out and share with friends.

The first person on Price's guest list is Mary Seward. I see you, Dracula reference, I see you.

[@joshuasepeda3289]

Pritchard was actually my favorite character in this movie. By the way, it's not strange that Price would be concerned for Evelyn after knocking her through that door. He obviously realized that was a dangerous room and decided that whether he wanted Evelyn dead or not, nobody should go in that room at all. It's one of those situations where you realize that personal motives take a back seat to survival. You can practically see Price's mind shift gears as he sees the room and understands what is in there.

[@eriktruchinskas3747]

a couple things. the reason pryce and wife hate each other is she was cheating on him and has tried to kill him multiple times cause shes nuts and a gold digger. also the cellphone thing isnt that far fetched in 1999 you would lose signal if you sneezed let alone went to a fortress in the middle of nowhere

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

Up until the reveal that she was cheating on him, I felt their hate was less real and more playful. Which is why he seemed so upset when she appeared to die and why he was trying to save her from the shadow thing. I think even despite the cheating, on his part anyway, a lot of it was just talk, like they were sick and twisted and it was a weird kind of foreplay. On her part, the wanting him dead seemed to be real though. Perhaps he was only upset becasue she didn't die by his hand.

[@klassytome]

Price is one of those people in love with a toxic abuser. The more cruel Evelyn is to him the more he craves her. I never saw anything incongruous about his obsession. The man needed psychological help for his masochism, but I can completely see when he plays into the conceit that he hates Evelyn. He has a little too much pride to openly grovel for Evelyn's affection, so he plays cat and mouse with her. Maybe her psychopathy is what attracts him to her. For Evelyn it's hate; for Price she's his poison of choice. When the house gets going, what song is blasting? That's right, Sweet Dreams are Made of These, "some of them want to abuse you, some of them want to be used by you." Right after the house took Price's beloved dominatrix and made her part of the cursed souls trapped in that asylum.

[@armjjb5189]

Geoffrey Rush as Vincent Price?! Yes please!!

[@WordUnheard]

That was the only redeeming quality of this movie.

[@r.babylon2885]

My main problem with this film is the ending. They are on the top floor's ledge outside of a demon-filled house, locked out because of the security system, with no way down. Overlooking a seaside cliff. Millions or not, they're fucked four different ways.

[@DiscoTimelordASD]

I agree - Jeffery Combs was worth soooo much more screen time given his amazing tv and movie career. He is such a diverse character. I totally loved Pritchard's sarcastic and pessimistic attitude - he was a hilarious contrast to the traditional characters in a horror movie.

[@planbrent]

Price is by far the best character, and somehow the most likable.

[@777boman]

Geoffrey Rush is always a stand out.

[@Wolfbane382]

12:40 Those are actually based on real sculptures by the artist Honoré Fragonard. They are in a Musume called Musée Fragonard d'Alfort in southeast Paris. The story behind the one sitting on the horse is said to be his girlfriend who passed away due to illness. He didn't want to bury her, so he skinned her, her horse, and preserved the muscles in some kind of wax or varnish. If I'm remembering correctly. For comparison, it's like a French version of the Mutter Museum Philadelphia.

[@Khenfu_Cake]

I believe these type of "sculptures" made with real carcasses are called écorchés (flayed figures). Fragonard used his girlfriend's remains for the Horseman of the Apocalypse exhibition?? That's kinda fucked up. Then again he was dismissed from the veterinary school he was a professor at for being a madman. I doubt the school took well to his use of animal and human remains in his biblical themed exhibits.

[@Lioness006]

This movie, Thirteen Ghosts, The Haunting, and Gnost Ship are four of my fave ghost movies.

[@Caitlein]

What do you want to bet that Pritchard's father died trying to remove the lockdown system? He never specifies exactly how he died, and it would explain why the system is still in place.

[@Caitlein]

Never mind, I need to remember to watch the entire thing before I comment.

[@AmaryInkawult]

Caitlein I have a habit of rewatching the same movie about 10 times. I never seen him mention exactly how his father died. So it's possible he meant to remove the locking mechanisms before the house killed him.

[@Midwayfan356]

Actually, Pritchard’s father dies sealing up the Darkness. Bill Malone said it on the commentary.

[@TheSpawnfan]

and they didn't do the "black guy dies first" cliche, that is good

[@deusdeaconReviews]

Although one could argue thats not something to praise a film for.

[@TheSpawnfan]

agreed.

[@LibraGamesUnlimited]

Especially since, I think he was still kind of a name when the movie came out and that's probably the only reason they didn't kill him off right away.

Your reviews are awesome! They're substantive but not long and boring and cut right to the chase. They're also not over-hyped and completely ignorant of the genre like some other reviewers out there which will remain nameless. Subscribed!

[@Vagrantkidfromtheforest]

I'd just like to say, while still watching the review, that the doctor shutting the locks on the place may have also been to keep the crazy people from getting out. Sadly, he didn't know that they'd turn into ghosts. Poor unethical doc.

[@IfAllElseFails_Ctrl_Alt_Del]

Charles Simmons apparently the doctor was a good person who actually wanted to help the patients but he ended up bringing an idol with a demon trapped inside. The demons breaks free and turns everyone evil. The doc realizes this when he has a clear moment of consciousness and closes every one in right before getting killed to prevent the evil from getting out.

[@CrossoverManiac]

17:00 - The "ghosts are real" twist is too easy. I think a better twist would be to age up Price's tech guy who was manning the traps and have it revealed in the end that the tech guy was one of the patients in the asylum (as a young child) and that he set up extra traps as a way of teaching Price what real fear is like.

[@IIDEADBIRDII]

Ya but that would be a better "harder" twist.

[@Rammstein0963.]

Some see it as a bit of a copout but you find out in the sequel none of it was really Vannacutt's fault. As it happens Vannacutt was once a good man and doctor who genuinely wanted to help people, to that end he'd decorate the facility with art he curated from all over the world. Sadly one artifact he obtained was in fact an idol....of a demon called "baphomet" it's said once the idol was in the asylum it took over Vannacutt and his staff, it's then all the evil doings by the Dr. and his staff began, after they died the possessed Dr. kept using the idol to control everyone after death, hence why they attack the characters.

[@matthiasthulman4058]

Sort of related, but I worked in a prison and we were all instructed that in case of a riot, we were not to open any doors for any reason. Even if a prisoner had the warden or something and was doing horrible things, we never open the main door, ever. The scary part is that I could potentially be one of the hostages, and the person in the contro room and I both know that they can't open that door, no matter what happens to me....

[@shadowsources]

The alternate ending on the dvd was an after credit's scene with a realtor showing Sarah's boss the asylum and saying that she had inherited it. When she goes inside, The realtor removes his glasses, showing the audience that he's Dr. Vannacutt, and steps inside the house slamming the door, followed by a woman's scream and a fade to black. Personally, I thought that was a much better ending.

For examples, I remember it having a more video gamey intro sequence than the one it actually had. With like a red tinted intro with the names of the cast. I also vividly remember the scene with the lady with the camera dying being different. After filming Vannacut and the nurses, she turns around and sees one of the patients with his head moving back and forth at an alarming rate who then moves quickly toward her with her screaming. In the actual film, it's just some guy with a prosthetic face looking goofy and she screams.

Think about it, the ghosts want to kill the descendants of their torturers, but those (great-) grandchildren have zero to do with what happened, so what difference does it make if one is adopted?!

To be fair, in the original Pritchard is the same. His brother was killed by the house and he's the one who tells price and the other guests about the houses past and gives them all a tour (even though Price is the one who lives there)

This movie and the Ring were the bane of my childhood

Good vids One disagreement though. I think Price did love her. He did try to save her despite the fact that she tried to kill him at least once that night
