Movie Review: This Property Is Condemned...
Summary: 4 Stars
Horror author, Roger Cobb (William Katt from Carrie) moves into his late aunt's house after her suicide. He wants a nice, quiet place to work on his latest book about his stint in Viet Nam. Weird things begin happening almost immediately, as we learn that Cobb's son disappeared from the grounds of this very house a year prior. Cobb's marriage (to his wife, played by the B-U-T-ful Kay Lenz) did not survive the tragedy, leaving Cobb shell-shocked and alone. We find out along w/ him that the house is more than brick and mortar! It is "haunted" by various demons, both literal and figurative. Cobb must face his own fears, guilt, and sorrow in order to defeat a great evil that threatens to kill him! George Wendt plays Harold, Roger's next-door neighbor. He's hilarious! Richard Moll (Night Train To Terror) is menacing and ultimately creepy as "Big Ben", Cobb's old army comrade. HOUSE keeps you guessing, while offering plenty of scares and laughs. Terror-ific...Movie Review: Interview with 'House' writer Ethan Wiley
Summary: 4 Stars
I run a movie nostalgia site called 'Natsukashi,' in which we take a film that we have seen in our youth and have not viewed since, rewatch it through the eyes of an adult and then podcast the results. One contributor selected 'House,' and we were fortunate enough to be joined by 'House' writer and 'House 2' director Ethan Wiley for the podcast.
He was very open, fun and had a lot to say about both films, as well as many interesting nuggets of information about his earlier industry work at ILM (George Lucas's Industrial Light and Magic), and Joe Dante's 'Gremlins.'
The entire interview I kept thinking that it would make a great DVD commentary, so if you wish to hear it, here's the link: http://natsukashi.wordpress.com/2009/01/06/episode-xxxv-house-with-its-writer-ethan-wiley/).
Enjoy!
Movie Review: Have a House party!
Summary: 4 Stars
A great 80s horror/comedy that's perfect for a Halloween party with friends, House combines creepy thrills with sardonic wit to create a unique genre blend.
Richard Cobb is a Vietnam vet who craves only "solitude" so he can begin his latest book - a memoir of his war experiences. Unfortunately, Cobb is plagued by nosy neighbors, the ghost of his deceased aunt, closet demons, pint-sized ghouls, and a purple witch who refuses to die easy. Throw in "lively" taxidermy, animated garden tools, dimensional portals in the bathroom, undead bats, a sexy neighbor, and snooping police, and you've got one heck of a wild ride.
This movie is fun to watch with a bunch of friends who can appreciate 80s horror/comedy. If you like Ghostbusters or Fright Night, spend an evening in this House. You won't regret it!
Movie Review: NICE PRINT! NOT AS GOOD AS I REMEMBERED! 3 1/2 STARS!
Summary: 4 Stars
In the 80's there was a growing trend in horror film! Taking old ideas and making them.......eh hip??? This film is like taking a trip through an old dark ride. It's not really scary, but there are plenty of jumps with fake looking monsters. It plays like a made for TV movie and the TV known cast helps to instill that "TV movie" feel.
I liked this movie a lot when it came out and remember watching this on some snowy winter days with friends in my isolated home town of Wildwood. It's a strange mix of horror and comedy and neither is done to perfection, but it's a good film and it brought back some memories. The best part of the DVD is the print is beautiful and there are some interesting extras. If your a fan of this film....buy it!
Movie Review: 80's Horror
Summary: 4 Stars
This movie was one that I watched early in my childhood, and it brought back memories to view it again. Anyone who likes horror or low budget horrors should spend some time watching this movie. The movie is a horror/comedy from the 80's. Do I need to say more? The horror genre has changed into many different forms over the last two decades, and house brings you back to the time where a horror not only made you laugh but made you jump out of your seat at times with the assistance of cheesy monsters. House is very low budget but brings back the credibility of a true horror film that the horrors of today lack.
