Post by: Patti Feinberg on July 27, 2013, 11:06:14 PM

We've mentioned the original Univited starring Ray Milland:

It's FINALLY!! for pre-order on Amazon. The above link mentions I believe Oct. 25th as shipping date. (Great for Halloween!!)

Go ahead...pre-order!!!

What a great movie!! It looks like there are some 'extras' on this; I don't have a blu-ray, but it is also available.

I have to confess, apart from Cornelia Otis Skinner (playing a character very reminiscent of the original concept for Julia Hoffman) and the music which is lovely, I found this film distinctly lame upon my last viewing.  The ending in particular felt very anticlimactic to say the least.

If you've never seen it, I strongly advise trying to get it through Netflix or your local library.  Watch before you buy. 

I really need to get the new DVD of the cheapo 1957 Roger Corman shocker THE UNDEAD, definitely an inspiration for the whole Vicki-flashback-to-1795 thing.

cheers, H.

For me, this is one of the best haunted house films ever made.  Of course, it's dated.  But the plot was intriguing with all its twists and turns and the final, climactic scene, where the evil ghost is confronted, is one of those hooray moments.

Isn't it funny...I can remember the 1st time I saw it.
It was on my local PBS station on a Saturday evening.
Loved it!!

Can't wait to own it!!
