'The Haunting of Hill House by Shirley Jacksonmaryburns said:I haven't picked this up yet but I heard that it was good. Anybody read it? Can you tell me if you liked it?
lorrekarloff said:I would also recommend seeing the original film version which is equally scary. The remake ruins the creepiness and makes it into another hi-tech special effect horror flick.
Exactly right-its what you cant see that makes your skin crawl and the hair stand up on your neck! This is why I love the old horror flicks so much. You just cant do that with the new special effects.cajunmama said:Don't you just hate that? Special effects can really ruin a good horror movie. It's not what you see that gets you, it's what you don't see...
It was "The Haunting". And the original is the one to see. The remake has all the special effects but none of the creepiness.JohnnySmakface said:I'm probably going to pick this one up. Now, was the movie the "House On Haunted Hill"? Or was it that "The Haunting" movie? Thanks.
