Synopsis
William Katt (THE GREATEST AMERICAN HERO) stars in this 1980s horror/comedy as Roger Cobb, a writer who has just split from his wife and is looking to complete a novel about his experiences in Vietnam. In order to work in peace, Roger moves into his aunt's old house, which she left to him after committing suicide, apparently after a bout with mental illness. However, Roger quickly learns that his aunt's suicide was probably the result of the strange forces at work inside her house, forces which begin giving Roger terrible and very real feeling nightmares about his past. Soon, Roger has become convinced that his long dead son is somehow trapped within the house, and he prepares to find an entryway into the house's bizarre supernatural energy. An inventive take on the haunted house genre, HOUSE achieves its distinctive tone by deftly mixing an ominous atmosphere with dark humor and witty dialogue, resulting in an often creepy and very funny movie that has become a cult favorite.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great film (with good extras), 14 Feb 2004
By T. B. Murphy "murphtb" (Lanark, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having read the only other review for this film, I have to agree with everything said about it. Except for the extras, unless the review was watching a diferent version of this dvd,I find the extras plentiful and interesting. 2 trailers, photo and stills,the making of house feature, commentary x2, and newly created 5.1, and widescreen, not bad for a little now horror! from the mid eighties.

3.0 out of 5 stars Very good and Fun film let down by lack of extras on the DVD, 29 Jun 2001
This is a great movie to watch. It can be suspensful in parts but above all it is highly enjoyable to watch. It has a imagitive plot and decent effects. The DVD is sharp and well recorded, but there is a dissapointing lack of extras on the disc. Only a photo library, or chapter selection, not even a Trailer, or behind the scenes or anything. 4/5 for film itself and a 2/5 for the actual DVD disc.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good entertainment for the price, 1 April 2005
By RM (London Colney, HE UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This 1980's comedy horror is quite entertaining as far as horror films from this time period generally go. There are many amusing parts in the film and the acting is, quite naturally, not the best in the world. But hey, that's only to be expected. House makes up for these let downs since it becomes so comical in parts and the viewer just has to laugh. For the price, it's a pretty good deal.

4.0 out of 5 stars House Extras
I found this film very funny with its dark humour. There are genuinely scary moments. You get the best effect of these if you watch House late at night with all the lights... Read more
