A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.
一直在等女主超自然神力重返17岁，但是没有！没有！！即使你是37岁大姨，也可以继续成长😭😭😭😭
把人摔成这样不用负法律责任也太离谱了吧，前面情节好无聊，后面还算有趣点
好棒的中年校园偶像剧！充满20年前后的冲突和变化……Digital和纸笔，昔日舞会皇后和网红，女生性感和中性造型Equality…女主瘦了，我也好想回到20年前的校园去回味一下
好无聊，女主是摔坏了🧠吧
新瓶旧酒，不过还是很欢乐的基调，只是，多少有点不协调。喜欢长大后严肃的校长和敦厚的赛斯。
Rebel真的瘦了好多，虽然剧情烂俗但也合情合理至少rebel演技值得三星。。。
挺喜歡這部的！故事還是美式校園老掉牙套路，但是女主的特殊經歷給電影加了不少喜劇元素，而且新舊觀念的碰撞也很有意思！好懷念以前哦。
拉拉队的孩子们很可爱
fat Emmy come back to pitch perfect🥲
…
是我杀了我？
所以真的没人调查下那个“失误”吗。。。校园喜剧 小鸡电影 现在都拍不好了。。。
真是应了中年少女这个词 表演17岁的心态和动作有些做作 总体上可以接受
瘦好多 最后的舞蹈感动到了 Justin好帅 （Steve Aoki本人亲自客串
要批评下网飞，不要再随便给预算拍一些这么普通的片子，剧情不亮眼，演员不抢眼，形式也不耀眼，结果让人没眼看的片子。网飞的水准已经严重拉低啦！
中规中矩 题材还算新颖的校园片 只是在讽刺现在的人tag太多太过敏感的时候把亚裔、gay、white nerd当作主要配角又何尝不是在贴标签？
推荐指数：🌟🌟🌟
10年后以为再也看不到这类片子了。今年居然看到了这部！
天 比意料中好看太多
很久没在netflix看到让我笑出🐔叫声好几次的喜剧了
