    A fun hyper-edited spooky action pic. A cool house with variety of freakish ghosts captured in glass cases; it's viscous death when some of them escape. Instead of offering the same ghost viewer gimmick the original 1960 version had, the makers had quick almost-subliminal flashes...( read more) of the appartions, which left an eerie after-effect. I liked how the characters still needed special glasses to see the ghosts. All thirteen ghosts were wonderfully envisioned with live actors in costume and makeup, without the need for CGI, although some was used on the victims for the gorey body-slicing effects. I wish each ghost was given more detail, I hardly caught their names and specialties. Matthew Lillard played a weird psychic character. I didn't understand if Uncle Cyrus (F. Murray Abraham) was a ghost or human at the end because they were seeing him without the glasses. The little boy with his morbid curiosity was funny.

    Not a very clever story and not a very good film.

    Creepy as fuckin hell... I know, I know, it's really awful with terrible acting and a stupid screenplay but you can't deny it's technically perfect! Art direction and make up is larger-than-life and it works: I didn't sleep for an entire week after seeing this.

    Angry Princes...( read more)s still gives me some bad dreams... I'm such a dork...

    In my opinion, and I'm a goober for scary movies, but this truely did scare the living daylights out of me. Then again, I am a scardy cat,however this movie shook me worse than any of the Saw movies.
