Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Smoreni Zmaj "Dreams in the Witch-House" is movie based on the short story of the same name by H.P. Lovecraft, published in "Weird Tales" magazine in 1933. Director Stuart Gordon already wrote and directed several Lovecraft adaptations: "Re-Animator" (1985), "From Beyond" (1986), "Castle Freak" (1995), "Dagon" (2001), but this time he has overcome all the previous adaptations and made a real little masterpiece of horror. Although it's placed in present time and modernized, this adaptation has preserved the spirit of the original story and even improved it in some aspects. I'm amazed.9/10For those interested in more thorough review, I recommend great text by Matthew Janovic (9 April 2006), which you can find here on IMDb.

trashgang Based on a story of H.P. Lovecraft you know that this isn't going to be a normal entry in the series and indeed it doesn't. Common, a rat with a human face that's not the normal stuff you expect from Masters Of Horrors. But it's so typical Lovecraft that you don't have any trouble seeing the rat's face.I can't really say that this was a straight horror, it's more a supernatural thing. When Walter Gilman (Ezra Godden) rents the cheapest room to finish his final rapport for school he's hearing noises from behind the wall. rats of course because his female neighbour once screamed it out when a rat was running in her kitchen. By closing up the hole they all think things were back to normal but it wasn't. After noticing that his room has some kind of dimensional portal things go wrong and a baby needs to be sacrificed. Guess who's baby that is going to be?This episode needs it from the atmosphere created and not the gore or horror. And it worked out fine. When the witch appears it gives an uneasy feeling because she goes full frontal. A good entry in the series for the lovers of Lovecraft.Gore 1/5 Nudity 1/5 Effects 3/5 Story 3/5 Comedy 0/5

cgyford "Re-Animator" and "From Beyond" director Stuart Gordon seizes the opportunity, as perhaps could have been expected, to update a 1930s "Weird Tales" short story from the genre legend H.P. Lovecraft, whom he seems so greatly to admire, as his entry in the show's first season.Ezra Godden display some schoolboy charm as the physics grad student with a dimensional doorway in the corner of his digs and Chelah Horsdal reciprocates in kind with a distinctly distressed desirability whilst Jay Brazeau heads a succinct supporting cast that includes Campbell Lane and Susan Bain.The master does his best to bring the classic yarn bang up to date but the supernatural elements of the Lovecraftian Cthulhu Mythos start to look decidedly hokey when brought into the modern world on a limited subscription channel budget and the whole thing subsequently falls a little flat.That's what happens when you travel through space and time.

Witchfinder General 666 Director Stuart Gordon (Re-Animator) delivers a great, brutal and weird second episode to the "Masters Of Horror" series with "H.P. Lovecraft's Dreams in The Witchhouse". Gordon, whose earlier work, such as "Re-Animator" or "From Beyond" has been based on the writings of the ingenious H.P. Lovecraft, manages to put Lovecraft's typical supernatural and extrasensory atmosphere to screen in a very good, eerie way.University student Walter (Ezra Godden) moves into a 300 year old house, where he expects a low rent and the appropriate quietness he needs to study. The house is inhabited by its disgusting, greasy and heartless landlord (Jay Barzeau), a supposedly crazy old man (Campbell Lane) and a pretty young mother named Frances (Chelah Horsdal) and her baby son. While Walter and Frances start to befriend, strange things start happening when Walter is on his own. He hears strange noises, and has some very weird dreams...This second episode, which is not afraid to break taboos, is one of the very good ones from the first season. It is gruesome and eerie as Horror should be, the performances are entirely good and convincing, and the whole episode is highly atmospheric, and very suspenseful throughout its 55 minutes. My praise goes to Stuart Gordon for this eerie and breathtaking second entry to the great MoH series. If you like the show, you certainly shouldn't miss "Dreams In The Witch House"!
