Return to House on Haunted Hill (2007)




















Synopsis


There was once a time when I actually thought a sequel to 1999's House on Haunted Hill would be a good idea. What the hell was I thinking? Sure I enjoyed the first film, but a sequel would be entirely unnecessary. Sadly, we got one anyway. So what reason could more fools have to go into this damned house? Well, this time instead of just staying the night in hopes of winning lots of money, we have a couple groups of people looking for this mysterious ancient relic that's supposedly worth millions to collectors. Then there's Amanda Righetti's character "Ariel Wolfe" who’s supposed to be the sister of Ali Larter's character from the first film, which is pretty much our only tie-in (aside from the house of course) of the two movies. Naturally Ali is too busy and has more sense to even make a cameo appearance in this project, but Jeffrey Combs returns as the good Doctor, only this time less creepy. From what I can remember they make no mention on the outcome of Taye Digg's character.


I'm not sure if it was the intention of the filmmakers or not, but the house is pretty much different inside and out, almost making it completely pointless, as it doesn't have the appearance of the same haunted Asylum. I was able to catch the film on Blu-ray disc and chose to view it with its gimmicky 'chose your own story' setting, where we're given the option to have certain characters do things that supposedly result in changes to their fates or the story itself. After playing around with it for a while, I came to the conclusion that it was pretty much a waste of time. Sure it was kind of fun choosing whether they should answer a phone or not (rolls eyes), but aside from a few choices, these options didn't really deliver anything substantially different. The biggest affect on the plot occurred when I chose one character not to save someone, which immediately resulted in a domino effect with everyone dying, with 30-minutes still left in the reported running time. Interesting to say the least.

Another choice led to a go-nowhere subplot of one of the guys planning to double-cross his boss, but as a result would be given a shorter death scene. If I chose otherwise, I'd get the full death scene, which is shown in the original director's version. Speaking of which, I took a look at the director's take on the film and it's really not much different than the one you get to choose. Aside from shorter deaths and a pointless sub-plot, everything stays intact. However, your own version can led to alternate endings (one of which I revealed above). I personally liked the neutral ending more than the "bad" and "good" ending. As far as the choices go, my favorite had to be during the lesbian scene, where one of the female hired guns and two hot and very naked female ghosts are making out. After a minute passes we're given the option for her to succumb or resists their advances. Hmmm.. gee, that's a toughie, lemme think about that one...

Anyway, there's one thing that this movie does improve on compared to the first and that's the gore -- we've got a buckets of blood and some decent amount of guts, but of course, this movie has to weigh the good with the bad, and deliver a lot of horrible CGI blood. Why!? Why must a perfectly good death scene be ruined by ridiculously-fake computer generated blood!? The movie also obviously has a lot of nudity, which seems to be only key to keeping the male viewers watching. The first flick was good and actually had some pretty creepy scenes, where-as this movie is essentially just a supernatural slasher, as these people are just killed in different ways with really very little meaning behind it. However, we do get a little more reason as to why these ghosts are stuck haunting the house. We're also shown some new ghosts, which sadly still aren't much of an improvement for the film.
