  2. Uggg, I spent ages trying to download a PDF of handouts for The Haunting off of Scribd, before noticing the Miskatonic Vault logo and tracing it back to Drive Through RPG: Somehow my search for The Haunting on it had missed one handout pack, so I paid another $2 for that pack and will print it out at work tomorrow.

    Then I can go through all four packs I've bought and pick the best version(s) of each handout.

  3. The Haunting, 1963.
    Eleanor Vance, Julie Harris (1925-2013) arrives at Hill House, the housekeeper, Mrs. Dudley, Rosalie Crutchley (1920 – 1997) shows her to her guest room --then just with perfect quietly menacing delivery outlines the rules of the house: “I set dinner on the dining room sideboard at six. You can serve yourselves. I clear up in the morning. I don’t stay after six. Not after it begins to get dark.”

  7. Robert Wise's THE HAUNTING (1963) is on Tubi and I can't imagine a better way to close out Halloween season.

    It's visually stunning and emotionally resonant.

  9. CW: The Haunting of Bly Manor (spoilers)

    Ok I finished it, and, while it is not without merit, I can definitely see why people hate it. It nosedives around episode 7, when they explicate the super-specific and incredibly convoluted ghost rules that everyone seems to understand for some reason. I've said this before, but horror and magic systems don't mix!

    Then the penultimate episode doles out an origin story for the haunting with a load of people we've never met before, and the finale is 90% epilogue. They try to do a Frodo ending ffs, and it drags so badly

    Add to this some very dodgy accents, lamentably performed bit parts, and some weirdly cheap looking production values, and you have a bit of a mess on your hands tbh.

  14. 📼 Pues muy chula la nueva #MansiónEncantada de Disney.
    Logra lo que no logró la anterior versión de Eddie Murphy (aquella, excesivamente cómica), y es conseguir equilibrar el terror, el drama y la comedia, sin que chirríe cuando apuesta por lo uno o por lo otro.
    El tono, pues, estaría en un punto intermedio entre #Casper y #Cazafantasmas, aunque con el barroquismo visual de (la siempre reivindicable) #TheHaunting (el remake de 1999).
    Ideal para ver en estas fechas pre-halloweenianas. 🎃

  17. More thoughts: Eleanor’s car “stealing” drive combined with her voice over narration really make me think of those two similar, but separate, elements of Psycho which came out 3 years earlier and I can’t help but wonder if they were supposed to invoke it deliberately. Make people wonder: would Eleanor be a victim, like Marion Crane, or an “unstable danger” like Norman Bate’s “Mom”. #Movies #TheHaunting

  19. Now though it’s time to relax with a movie and I’m going with The Haunting (1963) and I’ve already got two thoughts. 1) niche, but, I can’t help but wonder if it’s opening line about whatever walks in Hill House walking alone inspired J. Michael Straczynski's similar line in Babylon 5 and 2) does director Robert Wise possibly have one of the most interesting and varied slates of movies to his name of any director ever? He must be in contention. #TheHaunting #Movies

  21. Vaya MARAVILLA también “El murmullo” de Jennifer Kent, el último episodio de #ElGabineteDeCuriosidades de maese Del Toro. Sorpresa porque no tenía ni idea que era de la directora de #TheBabadook, mi película de terror favorita de los últimos tiempos, pero al identificar aquí a la misma actriz protagonista de aquella, me ha dado por mirar la #IMDB y… premio.
    Es prodigioso su talento para aunar atmosféricas escenas de terror y emotividad. Ha habido momentos en que he pasado MIEDO de verdad, y rara es la película/serie que lo consigue hoy día. En no pocos momentos he pensado en #AlFinalDeLaEscalera o en #TheHaunting, y eso son palabras mayores. Este episodio y “La autopsia”, los más logrados en ese aspecto.
    Pronto haré un ranking de todos los episodios, pero vaya, que me ha parecido fabulosa esta serie. QUIERO segunda temporada.

  24. One of my favourite #ClassicMovies in the #Horror #Suspense genre. The cinematography is just gorgeous, the film's atmosphere is genuinely creepy, the story & characters are engaging. Just brilliant. 😀 #TheHaunting #60sHorror #ClassicHorror #HorrorMovies #HauntedHouseMovies
