 An underrated haunted house film. Has an interesting premise and some good creepy moments. Worth a check if you're into ghost-flicks. 7/10--FrighT MasteR (UHM)
Nothing beats Hell House for pure atmosphere. The entire film is pervaded by a cloying, dead air that reeks of corruption, perversity, and rot. 93/100--Jack Witzig (ColdSpot)
The film is waaay better than most other haunted house films. Next to the original "Haunting," in fact, this may well be the best haunted house film ever made.-- (eSplatter.com)
It's a ghost story without the ghosts, and that is what really makes the film, the fact that the terror is in what you think you see, not what is actually presented to you.  --Zaero (Bloody-Disgusting.com)
