House On Haunted Hill (1959)

Comments:

Here is another haunted house classic starring Vincent Price as a macabre millionaire with an interest in the eponymous house. Price throws a party whereby anyone who stays the night with him in this supposedly haunted house will get $10,000. Complicating matters is the fact that Price and his wife hate each other, and the possibly of murder is very much a real one. As the night progresses, people start getting offed, and it looks more and more like the chance for $10,000 is definitely not worth a person's life! I really enjoyed this movie, and Price hams it up as always, really carrying the film. This makes a good rental for around Halloween, but I am glad it is a part of my collection.
