Format:Blu-ray
RETURN TO HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL is a straight to DVD/Blu Ray release and is the follow-up to the remake of HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL. The film is fairly average but quite good fun, with more comedy ghosts than actually scary ones. The special effects are extremely over the top but the kills are very impressive to be honest with some very gory and imaginative ways of finishing off the characters.
The thing I liked most about this Blu Ray is, like the FINAL DESTINATION 3 DVD, that you can choose the path that the story follows as you get options on what a character should do as the film goes on which actually does have an effect on the plot as it progresses. Apparently there are 96 possibilities of what can happen and I have watched this film a couple of times now and have deliberately chosen different scenarios and the outcome does have a big effect later on in the film so you could watch this many times and not see the exactly the same film twice Unfortunately the picture quality on this Blu Ray edition is one of the worst I have ever seen on the format. It is very grainy with white dots on the darker areas of the screen for a majority of the film.
FILM - 2.5/5
PICTURE - 2/5
SOUND - 5/5
EXTRAS - 5/5
OVERALL - 2.5/5

This is no more than I was expecting, a reasonably tolerable sequel to the remake of Castle's classic. It does not follow the first seamlessly, in terms of plot or effects, but it does try and give an explanation for the horrific events at the sanatarium, and packs in enough entertainment in the running time to be worth the price, especially as the blu ray is currently very cheap. And it is actually rather fun to be able to direct the story; I've tried it too, and it does make a difference to outcomes what you decide. It's a gimmick William Castle would have revelled in. But you do have the option to watch the theatrical edition, so if you haven't yet I would watch that first, so you can see how the plot was supposed to go. The blu ray isn't crystal clear, true, but I think that is actually deliberate rather than a faulty transfer; the picture is very clear and bright where appropriate, but where the scene needs to be gloomy and obscure, that kind of clarity would work against it. Not bad for the pennies.
