Raetsonwe Redundant and unnecessary.
GurlyIamBeach Instant Favorite.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
AverageJoesDriveInPodcast I absolutely adore this movie. I forgot how much this movie kicks ass. It has just the right amount of comedy mixed with the horror aspects. The FXs are awesome; they walk the line between being comical and creepy. William Katt is perfect in this. He nails the role and really gets you into the character. For me, this is one of those unheralded 80's gems, one that really doesn't get enough attention.There are some plot issues and a few things that will make you scratch your head, but because the movie is so enjoyable it's easy to forgive them. While House may not be perfect, it sure the hell is a lot of fun. If you've never seen it, I suggest you track it down and give it a watch. I'll be throwing on the sequel which I have never watched in the very near future.My Rating: 6.5/10

Rainey Dawn A divorced writer, Roger Cobb (William Katt) inherits the home of his recently deceased aunt - a haunted house. Our writer has a son missing, an aunt who once was an artist that commits suicide, a past where he was in the Vietnam war, a divorce, a neighbor that is concerned about him and moves into a haunted house.Is Roger crazy? Is the house really haunted? Is his son alive? You will have to watch the film to see how all this is connected. All I will say is: Monsters, Ghosts, Madness and Fun.Yea this is a pretty darn cool comedy horror film. I acquired this on in the 4-Pack Horror Classics - while it may not be a classic in the traditional sense, the film does have a cult following and it's a fairly good & entertaining film.7/10
gwnightscream William Katt, Kay Lenz, George Wendt and Richard Moll star in this 1986 horror comedy. Katt (Carrie) plays divorced, horror novelist, Roger Cobb who tries to figure out what happened to his missing son, Jimmy. After Roger's Aunt dies in the house where he grew up, he decides to stay there and work on his next book focusing on his experiences in Vietnam. Soon, strange things occur and he learns the house has supernatural powers which may lead him to Jimmy. Lenz plays Roger's ex-wife, Sandy who is an actress, Wendt (Cheers) plays Roger's nosy neighbor, Harold and Moll (Night Court) plays Roger's old army pal, Big Ben. I've always liked this film and think it's underrated. It's got bizarre, creepy and humorous moments, the cast is good and Harry Manfredini's score is chilling. I recommend this.
